Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, One Serious Bug:Glitch, please fix Insomniac.

Published 2021-06-13
In the bronze medal Speedle race for a golden bolt, my game froze as shown in video. Was running on fidelity mode, and black screened. PS5 was entirely frozen. I had to finally pull the plug and place back in. The rest mode did not work, and PS5 would not output video to my TV. When I attempted the speedle race again, it did it again. I won’t be doing that challenge anymore. So, I don’t know if replicable or not, but happened to me twice at least at the time of this writing. I lost the speedle race several times, so can say it did not happen every time. Just extremely disturbing hard crash likes of which I haven’t had on the PS5. Demon Souls Remake crashed but not to the point where the PS5 was inoperable like this, and have not since PS5 updates. This R&C bug is the first where I had to literally pull the plug to get my PS5 to work again.

Want to make clear, have nothing bad to say about the game or Insomniac besides this bug. Like the game very much so far. Very polished except initial release issues such as this which are far and few in between tbh. Very delightful game overall. Hopefully Insomniac fixes.

  • I had something like this happen while playing returnal too, but yeah rift apart seems a little buggy even with the day one patch. I have encountered a few problems during my playthough too like these weird blocky black lines or blobs appearing inside certain parts of certain characters heads while playing in fidelity mode, it's only happened during cutscenes though so i'm hoping it was just a weird 4k raytracing issue

    The same thing happened with Miles Morales as well, and this game too for me.
