Ratchet & Clank has some great aesthetics, channels its inner Star Fox

Barrel rolls lookin’ fine

As a part of the on-going Paris Games festivities, Insomniac put out a nice little gameplay video for the upcoming Ratchet & Clank game. The tropical setting really pops on PS4, and everything generally looks great. Nothing too revelatory, but good to see nonetheless.

There’s also a flying section where Ratchet is prompted to “Do a barrel roll!” He does, but not before blasting away at a Hydroharvester. Business first, fun later.

I had a chance to play Ratchet & Clank last month at Tokyo Game Show. It felt fine, and this video corroborates that it’s coming along nicely. Now, if only the same could be said about the Ratchet & Clank movie.
