Ratchet & Clank PS3 dated News • News • Eurogamer.net

News PlayStation 3

Game/demo dated for US/EU.

Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction will be released in the US on 23rd October and in Europe this November, Insomniac's Ryan Schneider told Eurogamer today.

Separately, the game's product manager confirmed that a demo of the game will be released on PlayStation Network in the US and Europe on 4th October.

Although it's about the 78th game in the series, Tools of Destruction is something of an origins tale, which sees the popular PS2 heroes taking over Emperor Percival Tachyon's ship and journeying around the galaxy for their first PS3 adventure.

We'll be bringing you impressions of the latest builds and more details from the development team in the Ratchet & Clank Future.

Whilst I understand that the R&C series is no viva Pinata, could you sound any less excited, Tom?

You make it sound like the announcement of PachinkoMon 265 - The Havok edition.

I think Belziah is a good poster, he's no Ham and cheese sandwhich, but he's a good poster none-the-less.

I'm getting a PS3 soon, but I'll be in America when Ratchet and Clank is released there, so I'll probably pick the game up there. Will the US version definitely play on a UK PS3? I haven't really read too much into the PS3 but I've heard it's region-free? Just want to be sure.

@jmm

I was mocking Toms reaction to V P @ GC07.

Watch ep15/16, no grown man should ever get that excited about paper animals

And yet a new RnC appears to bore him

I am going to get this...eventually. When the PSthree (PS3 redesign, which you know they're gonna do) comes out, and the next Jak and Daxter game is ready.

Oh, and "about the 78th game in the series"? Let's count:

R&C, R&C2, R&C3, Gladiator, Size Matters, and ToD. And if you wanna be perfect, there's those two mobile phone games.

That's eight altogether. Did we all miss 70 R&C games, or is that a typo?

Ryan Schneider has denied telling EG this in the recent Insomniac podcast (20/9)
