From silky smooth character animations to lighting and particle effects, Rift Apart looks like a playable Pixar movie running at a butter-smooth 60 fps in the 90-second or so sequence. And there’s good news if you’re hungry for more because PlayStation has also confirmed that an extended presentation will be showcased during this week’s State of Play event.

Oh, and if you were wondering who the mysterious female Lombax was that we’ve seen in previous trailers up until today, today’s trailer introduces her as Rivet. She’ll be a playable character alongside Ratchet in Rift Apart.
