Forgot your username or password? New Game? How many players is this game? Clank's use of the Chronoscepter and ability to create temporal recordings make his puzzle-solving gameplay vastly different from previous titles. Gameplay is split between the duo, with Ratchet exploring the open segments of the Breegus System using the Aphelion , which can land on planets and moons to complete main and side objectives, which normally involve either platforming through linear sections or combat sections shooting enemies.
Between planets and moons, Ratchet will fly the Aphelion in space combat, speak to new individuals to be set different objectives, and can also compete in the Agorian Battleplex arena to defeat waves of enemies.
Main objectives completed allow Ratchet to proceed with the story, while side objectives award prizes in the form of bolts currency used to purchase new weapons and armor , Zoni used to upgrade the Aphelion , constructo mods used to modify functionality of constructo weapons , gold bolts used to unlock extras such as skins or holo-plans for the RYNO V which will grant Ratchet the weapon once all are collected.
Control will often switch to Clank, who is undergoing training to become the Senior Caretaker of the Great Clock. Clank must complete puzzle-solving objectives using temporal recordings to unlock paths forward, and also use the Chronoscepter in planet rooms to stop temporal anomalies on a planet. These are required both for main objectives to proceed with the story, and side objectives to unlock areas both for Ratchet and Clank to find hidden items.
After completing the game, the player can choose either to warp back before defeating the final boss, or proceed to replay the game in challenge mode , which allows Ratchet to keep all weapons with their respective upgrades and all Aphelion upgrades, and fight more powerful enemies.
In this mode, Ratchet can purchase the Omega version of his weapons to upgrade them beyond the maximum. As these weapons are much more expensive, challenge mode has a bolt multiplier for enemies that were destroyed before Ratchet takes a hit. New to the game, players can record their in-game statistics and showcase their preferred and customized constructo weapon using PlayStation Network. Ratchet begins with ten units of nanotech , representing his health. This is can be increased by earning experience points from defeating enemies, up to Ratchet can also purchase armor from a GrummelNet armor vendor which can reduce the amount of damage taken.
All weapons can be upgraded up to level 5, and purchasing their Omega upgrade allows them to be upgraded five times more. This includes Groovitron and Mr. Zurkon , which were previously available in Tools of Destruction as combat devices which could not upgrade. The primary addition to the arsenal are three constructo weapons, the Constructo Pistol , Constructo Bomb and the Constructo Shotgun.
These can be modified in terms of both appearance and functionality when constructo mods are found. Seven gadgets are featured, of which four can be equipped using the directional pad: the Swingshot , the OmniSoaker , the Hoverboots and the Time Bomb.
The Swingshot, Gravity Boots and Grind Boots are initially available, while all other gadgets are unlocked throughout the story. The Hoverboots are the most significant addition, allowing Ratchet to traverse quickly through areas and to glide in the air without the Heli-Pack before reuniting with Clank. Several locations will feature speed boosts that the Hoverboots can take advantage of to reach otherwise inaccessible areas.
Ratchet also retains his OmniWrench Millennium 12 from Quest for Booty , and can pick up and throw objects with it. Ratchet can fly the Aphelion in space combat on a two dimensional ecliptic between planets and moons. The ship can fire selectable blasters and missiles to defeat enemies during missions and casual exploration in which it can destroy asteroids and ships for bolts.
These weapons and its armor can be upgraded by acquiring more Zoni. Ratchet can also play the arcade game, My Blaster Runs Hot. Clank's gameplay primarily involves his use of the Chronoscepter. With the weapon, Clank can not only attack enemies, but reflect projectiles at enemies by reversing them in time, causing them to destroy enemies from a distance. Clank can also throw Time Bombs to significantly slow enemies or objects for a limited time.
Much of his gameplay involves platforming and combat similar to Ratchet's. To solve puzzles, Clank can create temporal recordings of himself on colored time pads. These allow him to record his actions and proceed through a room, and once he has unlocked the door and proceeds through it, he gains access.
Several temporal recordings are used at once, simultaneously, in order to keep certain pads pressed to unlock the key. These allow Clank to complete main and bonus objectives. Clank can also make use of planet rooms, in which he can use the Chronoscepter to destroy time anomalies in a time fixing mini-game. The Chronoscepter fires a beam at anomalies, which appear either red, orange or yellow, with the intent on turning them all blue. Clank must also destroy seekers to prevent them from damaging anomalies further, and can collect power-ups to speed up the process.
This is a lawless section of the galaxy, with little connection to the outside, although Grummel Net Industries still operates here. The primary inhabitants are the peaceful fongoids living in tribes, the junk trading vullards living in outposts, the warlike agorians living in war camps, the highly intelligent terachnoids living in large cities such as their homeworld of Terachnos , and the female robotic race known as valkyries.
Aside from their own presence on planets and space ships belonging to them, they can be found throughout several moons that are scattered throughout sectors with varied environments. Nefarious has also established his own influence, and many of his robotic forces most commonly Nefarious Troopers are found throughout the moons. Clank begins and spends much of his time in the Great Clock, a Zoni construct located in the center of the universe give or take fifty feet.
This is a large structure made up of multiple different rotating layers, which keeps time throughout the universe and is watched over by caretakers and by the Zoni. There are several planet rooms which oversee planets across the universe, from which time anomalies can be repaired.
Due to Dr. Nefarious' destruction of much of the Clock with the Hypersonic Brainwave Scrambler , the Zoni have largely evacuated the Clock, leaving only Clank and Junior Caretaker, Sigmund , in charge. The damage caused by Dr. Nefarious to the Great Clock has also caused several time anomalies to appear across planets.
On many planets visited, time will sometimes loop or freeze in random areas, due to the volatility of space and time. Unlike in Tools of Destruction , the Zoni are visible to all here, and Ratchet can even use them to help upgrade the Aphelion. The story focused on Ratchet , still searching for Clank while Clank himself came to terms with his own origins in the Great Clock. The game began with Clank who had been in suspension inside the Great Clock for over a year in the custody of Dr.
Nefarious and his butler, Lawrence. Nefarious suddenly discontinued his "partnership" with the Zoni after being denied access to a part of Clank's brain, which was the key to something called the Orvus Chamber.
Nefarious then unleashed the Hypersonic Brainwave Scrambler and sent it to kill them. Nefarious proceeded to create chaos throughout the Great Clock with his Hypersonic Brainwave Scrambler , which the Zoni and Clock's equipment were vulnerable to. This event caused Clank to awaken and escape from Nefarious's clutches. After briefly escaping, Lawrence immobilised Clank with an orb of gratuitous immobilization. Nefarious and his troops then left the Great Clock which had later suffered heavy damage.
Meanwhile, Ratchet traveled into the Breegus System with Qwark in tow. Talwyn had warned that the sector was 'crawling' with mercenaries. Aphelion was suddenly hit with a strange wave of energy and promptly crashed into Zolar Forest on planet Quantos. Ratchet and Qwark were both saved from death by a strange anomaly that froze the Aphelion wreckage in mid-air. As Ratchet and Qwark explored the jungle, they soon encountered a Fongoid mother, looking for her missing children.
After saving her children, they both met the Fongoid Chief who knew of a way to fix Aphelion. He lead the two of them to the Temple of Zahn. Inside the temple, Ratchet found an item named the Zoni Vessel - a container used to capture lost Zoni. Ratchet collected three Zoni on the planet and the resulting energy created fixes and upgrades on the Aphelion for him. Ratchet, Qwark and the Fongoid Chief then came back to the village to witness a mass kidnapping of their race by someone known as Lord Vorselon.
Vorselon mistook Ratchet for someone called "Azimuth" and captured Qwark along with the Fongoids. Ratchet followed Vorselon's ship and released the captured Fongoids along with Qwark. Azimuth initially thought Ratchet was an assassin in a Holo-Guise and attempted to flee, but after a brief chase, Alister recognised Ratchet's face and compared it to his father, Kaden.
Alister later explained how Kaden was one of the first Lombaxes to theorize the Great Clock's existence and taught Ratchet how to use his father's Hoverboots. Azimuth told Ratchet to meet him in Axiom City on planet Terachnos in order to find a way to talk to Clank. The two of them infiltrated a Pollyx Industries building once on Terachnos and managed to locate another Obsidian Eye which was abundant throughout the galaxy, built by the Zoni on Lumos in the Korthos Sector , allowing them to communicate with Clank.
They were forced to escape and destroy a VX before leaving the planet. After following Sigmund through the Clock to a mnemonic chamber , Clank discovered his father, Orvus. The Zoni leader then left the Great Clock to Clank as a sort of inheritance after giving Clank a Chronoscepter to help with his care-taking duties. Clank continued through the Clock, destroying the Hypersonic Brainwave Scrambler in the process and entered the Orientation Room with Sigmund.
Inside, Clank learned that Orvus and the Zoni built the Great Clock to keep the balance of time in working order after a small rip in the time-space continuum, caused by the improper use of time travel by the Fongoids that destroyed over eighty-three celestial entities.
Clank was also warned by Orvus that the Clock should not be used as a time machine under any circumstances as it was built to keep time, not alter it. He was then informed of how to fix temporal distortions located on various planets and proceeded to do so. Shortly afterwards, Clank secretly watched Sigmund viewing a message from Orvus, who apparently traveled to planet Zanifar to meet another scientist and would not be back until morning.
As Orvus was nowhere to be seen and through observation of Sigmund's mournful warning to the recording, Clank knew something bad has happened to his father. On his space station, Nefarious was furious with Vorselon for letting Ratchet, Qwark and the Fongoids escape.
Claiming to be bringing in specialists, he opened his office door and bid the Valkyries to enter. Ratchet and Azimuth arrived on Lumos and began to search for the Obsidian Eye.
Part-way through their journey, Ratchet asked the General to stop and give him some straight answers about the Lombaxes, his father and why the General was not with them.
Azimuth angrily replied that Ratchet asked too many questions and that his father would not be like this. Ratchet argued that he was not his father and asked Azimuth again. The General then finally answered Ratchet and said it was because he had failed his race. Azimuth told the tale of an "inventor" who approached the Lombaxes with ideas for technology that was light years ahead of their own, years after the conclusion of the Great War.
Kaden warned Azimuth not to trust the inventor, but Azimuth thought otherwise and allowed the inventor access to all of the Lombax's technology and secrets. The inventor, revealed to actually be Tachyon , then used this to form his own army proving Aphelion s' claim of Tachyon using stolen Lombax technology in Tools of Destruction.
The Lombaxes took refuge in the Court of Azimuth , but Kaden refused and went back home to save Ratchet's mother from the soldiers.
By the time he arrived, Tachyon's forces had already murdered her. Azimuth said he was unsure of how long Kaden survived before being killed but claimed responsibility for his friend's death. Azimuth then told Ratchet that both of them could fix it together, using the Great Clock. The General said he could undo what was already done by using the Clock's abilities and promised Ratchet that if he stuck with the General, he would get his family back. Clank was surprised that Ratchet had found him and asked about who Azimuth was.
Ratchet was unable to explain fully as the signal started to decrease in strength. Before the message cut out, Clank pleaded Ratchet to travel to Zanifar to help his father and told him to look for a time portal. Before Ratchet could ask about who Clank's father was, the signal stopped. Clank asked Sigmund to synthesize a time portal on Zanifar for Ratchet and Alister to use.
On the flight out of Lumos, Alister told Ratchet something about the Clock. If they succeeded in changing the past, the present as they knew it would no longer exist meaning that Ratchet would never meet Clank at all. Despite this, Ratchet knew this is his only chance to save his parents. Azimuth then split off from Ratchet to distract Nefarious's forces while Ratchet headed for Zanifar. After taking a side trip to rescue Qwark from the Agoreans who had been paid by the Fongoids to take the superhero off their hands and defeating a War Grok who Qwark called 'Snowball', Ratchet used the time portal on Zanifar to travel two years into the planet's past.
He learned that Nefarious and Lawrence crashed their asteroid there and somehow appeared to brainwash the Fongoids inhabiting the planet to build an outpost. He sneaked into the base and saw Nefarious with a captured Orvus, who still refused to tell the Doctor how to get into the Orvus Chamber despite running out of strength to resist.
Nefarious ordered the Hypersonic Brainwave Scrambler to attack Orvus who suddenly disappeared after saying that the one who would enter his Chamber was safe from the Doctor.
A residual image left behind was tracked back to Clank. Ratchet exclaimed his confusion, alerting Nefarious to his position.
The Lombax then tossed a bomb at Nefarious creating a large scar on his right eye before diving out of the window. When Ratchet returned to the present, this change to the past causes the scar to appear on the current Nefarious who then screamed in anger. Before leaving Zanifar, Ratchet received a message from Vorselon, who had managed to capture Azimuth. Ratchet then took off towards Vorselon's ship.
Ratchet arrived on Vorselon's ship and fought his way through the ship's forces, eventually coming into confrontation with Vorselon. The Terraklon assassin claimed he would tell Ratchet where Azimuth was if he was defeated. Ratchet did defeat him, but Vorselon retreated before he told of Azimuth's location. Ratchet searched the ship some more and eventually found Azimuth in a containment field. Azimuth ordered Ratchet to leave and forget about him, but Ratchet refused and lowered the containment field.
After releasing the General, Azimuth was angry at Ratchet for not listening to him, until Ratchet mentioned that he traveled back in time. Azimuth became hopeful and inquired as to how far Ratchet traveled. Ratchet replied it was not far enough. Despite this, the pair managed to escape Vorselon's ship.
Back on the Great Clock, Clank took another trip into his subconscious and puzzlingly met The Plumber, who claimed he took a wrong turn into Clank's memory banks and was originally intending to head into Qwark's brain which he thought he was in because of all the emptiness he saw. The Plumber then said that Clank must accept his new responsibilities, even though the first steps were the hardest.
The Plumber then said "I would not risk any more than six minutes", before Clank abruptly awoke. Sigmund noted that he had some strange neural activity during Clank's brief trip, but dismissed it. Clank then traveled to the Orvus Chamber with Sigmund and proceeded inside.
The two of them viewed a message left from Orvus for Clank, but it cut off before it finished. Lawrence had cut the power and immobilized both Clank and Sigmund with another orb of gratuitous immobilization.
He informed Nefarious that Clank had lead them directly into the Orvus Chamber. Nefarious ordered Lawrence to initiate "Unnecessarily Evil Initiative Omega 91" just as Qwark arrived at the base in a nurse outfit. Ratchet received a message from Azimuth who picked up a repeating distress call from planet Vapedia. Ratchet immediately recognised it as Clank's unique signature.
After defeating one of the Valkyries in a space fight, Ratchet headed towards Vapedia to help Clank, unaware that the distress call had been faked by Nefarious.
The leader of the Valkyries, Cassiopeia , was waiting for Ratchet and Azimuth, promising to kill both of them as well as Clank. Ratchet and Azimuth split up; the General going after Cassiopeia and Ratchet heading into the citadel. After surviving various death traps, Ratchet confronted Cassiopeia who taunted him by saying Clank wanted to leave him.
Clank was revealed to be suspended in a container, unconscious. Cassiopeia fought with Ratchet and was ultimately defeated. Cassiopeia was sent tumbling downwards to her doom and ended up breaking Clank's container, sending him falling as well. Ratchet dived off the platform to grab him using his Hoverboots and narrowly avoided sending both of them falling to their deaths.
