Celebrating 20 years of Ratchet & Clank
Ratchet & Clank turns 20 today! Did someone tamper with The Great Clock? Itâs almost hard to believe, but itâs true! Insomniac Games launched the original game in 2002, sparking two decades of grand adventures through space, time, and dimensions. Since its humble beginnings on the PlayStation 2 console, the franchise introduced us to a variety of beloved characters, a host of iconic weapons and gadgets, multitudes of eccentric alien worlds, and much more.
So, beginning today, weâre kicking off our Ratchet & Clank celebrations â #Ratchet20 if you will, by dropping a few surprises and briefly looking back at the franchise.
