Review - Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart
“ Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart ” is an action-adventure platformer released on the PS5 in 2021 and ported to Windows in 2023 by Nixxes Software. Although Ratchet & Clank isn't the sole reason I purchased a Steam Deck , it was absolutely a large influence and it was undeniably the game I was MOST looking forward to playing. That situation gives this review gravitas that other reviews for other games I've played, both on the Steam Deck and on other platforms, certainly haven't had. I've tried to be careful to maintain a balance between unnecessarily critical for a game that I've wanted to play for so long and almost reverential for a series that I love so much. When I learned that Rift Apart was ported to PC, that would be my opportunity to play it without buying a PS5. I was already considering a Steam Deck, so that discovery clicked all the pieces into place. I WOULD get to play Rift Apart, and I WOULDN'T have to buy a whole console just for that ...
