Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus
Underrated PS3 Games That Deserved More Love
There was an abundance of Ratchet & Clank games for the PlayStation 3, so it’s no surprise that a pretty decent one flew under people’s radars. With the likes of QForce, All 4 One, the Future games, and Into the Nexus, it’s hard to tell which games are spin-offs and which games will actually play like your traditional Ratchet & Clank. Into the Nexus was, in fact, the final game in the Future series, despite dropping the Future moniker. It was developed by Insomniac, and does play like a mainline Ratchet & Clank game.
It didn’t help that this game launched a week or so before the PS4. Many people were hotly anticipating the latest generation of Sony hardware, so another Ratchet & Clank for PS3 probably wasn’t ever likely to accumulate much interest. Into the Nexus was the last game in the original Ratchet & Clank timeline prior to the 2016 reboot, and is definitely worth a play to see how the series ended.
