New Ratchet game to get two demos

Both due to arrive on US PSN this month.

Insomniac Games has revealed that two playable demos are on the way for Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time.

The news comes from community manager James Stevenson, speaking in the latest Insomniac podcast.

"There are going to be what looks like two downloadable demos," he said. "Originally there was going to be one that had a Ratchet level and a Clank level, but it really got too big for people to download easily with both those sets of assets.

"So it sounds like there will be two demos. One will be the Ratchet demo and one will be the Clank demo... So that'll be fun."

Stevenson didn't offer an exact release date for the demos, but did say they'll be out "a week or two" before the full game goes on sale. That'll be 27th October in the US, with a Euro date yet to be announced.
