"From the very first seconds"
A heroic duo, an arsenal of zany weapons and colourful planets to explore: this platformer-shooter brings all the generosity of the series to handheld, with no compromise. Alternating snappy shooting, gadgets and platform phases delivers a constant, varied pleasure. Spectacular, funny and packed with ideas, an adventure as rich as it is gleeful, built for on-the-go sessions.
The Asian pressing of Ratchet & Clank Size Matters, made in very low volume in a market with restricted PSP distribution, markedly rarer than the Western editions. Its appeal lies in this genuine regional scarcity of an otherwise common title, making it a target for specialists of Asian pressings of Sony games. A niche piece for collectors of uncommon local versions.
Is Ratchet & Clank - Size Matters still worth playing in 2026?
