| GAME |
"Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart" is a game developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 5. As a sequel to the Ratchet & Clank series, the game was announced in June 2020 during the "The Future of Gaming" presentation for PS5.
1. Development history
As always, the history of game development begins with its origins in the minds of the developers. Insomniac Games already had experience with the Ratchet & Clank franchise, having created several successful games before. After the success of "Ratchet & Clank" in 2016, the team began to think about the next step.
The main idea for "Rift Apart" arose after demonstrating the technological capabilities of the PS5. In particular, the SSD drive of the new console made it possible to quickly change game worlds, which became a key feature of “Rift Apart”. This became the starting point for developing the story and gameplay.
During the development process, the team faced a number of challenges. One of them was the need to adapt the game engine to take advantage of the PS5's capabilities, including the SSD, graphics chip and DualSense controller. Another challenge was the development of a new character, Lombax Rivet, which required careful work by the designers and writers.
2. Game engine
"Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart" was developed on an updated version of the Insomniac Engine, which was adapted for PS5. Engineers from Insomniac have done significant work to optimize the engine for the new console.
One of the key features of the PS5 is its SSD storage, which allows you to load data much faster than a regular hard drive. This made it possible to instantly switch between game worlds, which became a key feature of the game. This required changing the way data was loaded and stored to provide unprecedented speed.
In addition, the Insomniac Engine has been adapted to use the new PS5 graphics chip, creating an even more detailed and realistic world. The game uses ray tracing technology to display realistic light and reflections, as well as dynamic resolution to ensure stable frame rates.
Finally, Insomniac used the new capabilities of the DualSense controller to create a more immersive experience in the game. By using haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, they were able to give players a more tangible experience when interacting with the game world.
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart confidently captured the hearts of fans on PlayStation 5, thanks to stunning graphics, dynamic gameplay and exquisite use of the PS5 SSD to instantly change worlds. And now, the game has come to a new platform - PC, which promises serious changes and additional features.
Features of the PC version of the game
The game was originally designed to take advantage of the unique capabilities of the PS5, including superior ray tracing, exceptional loading speeds thanks to the SSD, and innovative features of the DualSense controller. However, like any game coming to PC, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is expected to receive a number of improvements and options specific to that platform.
-
Ray tracing and graphics card support: Nixxes Software is actively working on ray tracing support for AMD graphics cards. The reasons for the lack of this support at the time of release are not specified, but it may be due to technical difficulties or differences in the hardware architecture. At the same time, users of NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics accelerators will be able to use ray tracing immediately after the release, and will also have access to NVIDIA's proprietary technologies, including DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), Reflex (reduces system latency in games) and RTX IO (accelerates loading and decoding of textures using GPU).
-
Steam Deck support: One of the features of the PC version will be full compatibility with the Steam Deck, a portable device for running computer games from Valve. This means that players will be able to enjoy Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart while on the move, delivering the same gaming experience as a desktop PC.
-
Graphics settings: Porting a game to PC usually means a much wider range of graphics settings. Players can expect to be able to customize resolution, texture quality, lighting and shadow settings, anti-aliasing, and other settings to optimize performance for their PC configuration.
-
Management: In addition, the game should offer support for both keyboard and mouse and various controllers, giving players more freedom in choosing the way they control.
-
Mods: Although there is no information about mod support yet, the ability to use them could be another feature of the PC version. Mods can add new content to the game, change the gameplay, or even improve the graphics.
"Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart" on PC promises to be even more immersive and customizable gameplay than the PS5 version. Despite some difficulties that may arise during porting, you can be sure that the developers will do everything possible to ensure that players get the best gaming experience.
| DIFFERENT QUALITY MODES |
Ray tracing is an advanced graphics technology used to simulate realistic lighting, reflection and refraction in computer games. In Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, as in other games that support this technology, the difference between ray tracing enabled and disabled will be noticeable in the following aspects:
-
Reflections: With ray tracing enabled, you will see accurate and dynamic reflections of the environment on glossy or reflective surfaces such as water, glass or metal. Without ray tracing, reflections are typically simulated using less accurate methods, resulting in less realistic results.
-
Shadows and lighting: Ray tracing allows you to create softer, more realistic shadows and more accurately simulate lighting effects such as global illumination, shine, and flare. Without ray tracing, these effects are also simulated, but the results may be less accurate and realistic.
-
Refraction: Ray tracing also allows you to accurately simulate the refraction of light through transparent or translucent objects. Without this technology, refraction effects can be simulated, but they will usually be less accurate.

Who is interested in performance with Frame Generation and DLSS in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, then you can familiarize yourself with their test on our international website. But we would Frame Generation We did not recommend using it because it works quite problematically, especially what causes crashes is the technology that is one of the components of its operation.
| VIDEO MEMORY CONSUMPTION |
Testing of video memory consumed by the game was carried out by the program MSI Afterburner. The indicator was based on the results on video cards from AMD and NVIDIA with separate screen sizes 1920x1080, 2560x1440 and 3840x2160 with various anti-aliasing settings. By default, the graph displays the most current solutions. Other video cards are added and removed from the chart at the request of the reader.
