Insomniac Games' Drew Murray discusses PS4 re-imagination of Ratchet and Clank as well as potential sequels for Resistance and Sunset Overdrive.
Hanzala from eXputer: "On this joyous 8th anniversary of the Ratchet and Clank reboot, it's about time Sony considers reviving the originals to complete the saga."
It's not the ideal situation but Sony does offer them on ps plus. I to would just like a big ass compilation on doscto though
Insomniac roadmap leaked a while ago and they are making another, they’re doing the best they can and these games, especially the last two, are master pieces
Does it still hold up in 2024?
We've still got a few months to go, but October marks the 10-year anniversary of this Insomniac Games title, with the developer having since moved on to work on the Marvel's Spider-Man games for PlayStation. It was assumed that Sunset Overdrive might make its way to other platforms eventually, but that hasn't happened as of yet.
So beloved that it sold so well that there's a sequel and Insomniac never had the opportunity to go back to Sony to develop games exclusively for Sony.
Not beloved enough for Xbox owners to buy it apparently, Xbox was the worst possible audience for that game.
Insomniac: “We went with Microsoft because we want to own the IP so it’s ours”
Microsoft: *owns publishing rights preventing the studio to re-release the original game, make a remaster, remake, any DLC, massive expansions and multiple sequels on other platforms*
The logic is just…I never got it
Owning the IP was Insomniacs main defence when they announced they were making a game exclusively for MS and yet they’ve ended up “owning” an IP they can’t do anything with.
If they went with Sony like normal you might have seen a sequel by now.
Sadly this may never get the proper fps update it deserves on XB (or even PS) but I now play it on steam and it definitely feels better at 60fps than it did at 30. Its a fast paced game... you need that 60fps in this one.
For those who don't have time for massive open worlds or role-playing games with epic tales, these 15 games are worth checking out.
"Drew Murray also said that the Ratchet and Clank is “amazing to see on the PS4,” implying that it looked like a Pixar movie running in real-time"
Man I love me some Ratchet and Clank! I think we see this at E3 with a early fall release date. If it's soon then that's even better!
"In regards to Resistance 4, he stated that he personally may have some interests in working on a new game for the series."
Stop playing with my emotions like this!
Really interested to know how Sunset Overdrive did for Insomniac. Was one of my favourite games last year and would love to see where they could take the series.
Would love to see multiplats!
Really want to play a new Ratchet & Clank.
I hate and love you Insomniac.
How did SO actually do sell wise? the game seem like an interesting concept, curious to know if a lot of Xbox owners actually bought it after some (not all) being cocky over getting an exclusive from a once Sony only developer.
