This is sudden. Apparently Insomniac Games wants to make one final game for the PS3 before moving on to next-gen systems.

Here's the announce trailer:

It'll be out in Fall for $29.99 on the PS3; a PS Vita release is unconfirmed but possible and likely. Here's an article from Kotaku: There's A New Ratchet & Clank Game For The PS3, and one from Joystiq: Ratchet and Clank headed Into the Nexus this holiday. Both hint to Into the Nexus being a return to the original series' platforming, adventure, and crazy weapon and gadgets use unlike the recent All 4 One and Full Frontal Assault titles. Joystiq added that this could be a rebirth of the Rachet & Clank: Nexus game for the PS2 that was cancelled in favor for Deadlocked. More news soon.

Edit: Also, Into the Nexus will continue where A Crack in Time left off or maybe after Full Frontal Assault. In a way All 4 One and Full Frontal Assault were probably side stories and experiments for Insomniac Games since I don't remember any Ratchet & Clank game - that I played; never played the PSP ones - had zero gravity being this much. I wonder who the brother is... Tachyon maybe? Or perhaps a returning villain or someone entirely new. That creature in the tube looks suspiciously Lombax-like with the ears, but hey, it could be a new species. I hope Talwyn returns as an on-screen character rather than the cameos, references, and off-screen appearances she had after Tools of Destruction.

And will Qwark try to destroy save the world? Will Nefarious return to evil? Or will he return as an anti-villain? Will Lawrence get a chance to perform his bass solo for everyone? Stay tuned for the next Ratchet & Clank.
 
I bought the Ratchet and Clank collection on PSN since I've never played any of the games, so I'm gonna start from the beginning. It was mostly that R&C movie trailer that got me into R&C.
 
i think the villains are entirely new but there is a return of the thugs-4-less from ratchet and clank 2

Yea they look fun, i never played any though.
Looks like a great PSVita buy :)

One of the most interesting aspect about the game is the weaponry. I found myself playing through the same game again and again in order to get enough bolts to buy new weapons. I mean seriously, you can't argue with a gun that plays the 1812 Overture when fired.

Hey, guess what? Five minutes of gameplay with Insomniac Games's Brian Allgeier commentating it.

Talwyn Apogee returns! Hopefully more than just a voice telling what to do, though. As usual, we get crazy, wild, and humorous weapons. As Mr. Allgeier speaks, he mentions "gravity" a lot with the weapons, this plays with the "gravity" themed gameplay Into the Nexus is targeting; zero-gravity gameplay is part of this game, puzzles are gravity themed, etc. Also, whenever he says "spooky", it just adds to the whimsical feel Ratchet & Clank games have. It's not scary; it's spooky. So, what do you think about Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus?

This is a demo of the preview above, which means no commentary, just gameplay.

For one, the Thugs-4-Less are a group of intergalactic, Russian-British er... thugs. The heli-pack has a new sound effect. Winterizer has holiday music whenever it's being used; a similar feature from the RYNO V. Raritanium returns as currency for weapon upgrades. And the game looks as beautiful as the past games.
 
I hope they bring back that ninja costume from Deadlocked!

And will Ratchet be able to find his fellow lombax race throughout the movie? Or is this last one?
