New Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Gameplay Trailer Reveals Wall Running And Dash Ability
Written by Liana Ruppert 
Creative director Marcus Smith just revealed 15 minutes of new Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart gameplay footage during Sony's most recent State of Play. This is the second trailer we've gotten this week, going more in detail about some of the new faces we'll be meeting and Rift Apart's latest evil.
With every trailer we get, it feels like the latest Ratchet & Clank gets even more stunning. With PlayStation 5's ray tracing and impressive load times, Rift Apart is poised to be an incredible new ride for longtime fans (and newcomers) of the Insomniac franchise.
Click here to watch embedded mediaThe latest gameplay comes after more information was finally revealed about the mysterious new Lombax character. Rivet is a resistance fighter from another dimension that will team up to help stop the evil Emperor Nefarious from taking over the world. She's another playable character that players can kick butt with, which will be needed because Nefarious City - if going by the name alone - sounds like it's going to be anything but an easy ride. If her voice sounds familiar, you may recognize Jennifer Hale. Hale is in so many different titles out there, including our Jane Shepard from the Mass Effect games.
The gameplay also showcases some of the new weapons that players can master, and some of the new outfits players can don as well. This standalone adventure looks like it's going to be teeming with action, we can't wait to dive in! The gameplay also lays out how quests will work and even better? How absolutely stunning they are when exploring this new dimension.
The latest State of Play also showed off a few other key announcements, which you can see here with our previous coverage.

Written by Liana Ruppert 
TikTok is trying its best to wipe the memory of Vine forever (but never from our hearts), and this video platform has grown exceptionally in recent times. Official marketing tools, funny videos with friends, gaming clips – it's everywhere. Because of that growth in the entertainment world, the brand is teaming up with Enthusiast Gaming and e.l.f. Cosmetics for TikTok Gamers Got Talent. Who is going to be the next gaming superstar? I dunno, but shoot that shot.
TikTok Gamers Got Talent is exactly what you'd think: a competition with a direct focus on the gaming community. It's a seven-week live series that will center around a certain amount of contestants in an effort to find the crème de la crème of gamer talent. The series is poised to air on May 9, 2021, at 7 p.m. Eastern. In a search for "hidden talent" in the gaming community, this initiative aims to aid in a fresh wave of new talent. What better way to put gamers through their paces than by putting them on the spot in front of millions?
There is a $25,000 prize pool on the line and prizes that include e.l.f. Cosmetics.
"TikTok continues to be a platform where culture starts and through TikTok's Gamers Got Talent, a North American first, our gaming community will have an opportunity to reach new audiences, be discovered and entertained," said Nadia Niccoli, Director of Marketing at TikTok Canada, in a press release. "We're excited to have two industry giants in their respective areas, e.l.f. Cosmetics and Enthusiast Gaming, onboard to support and show gamers the power of TikTok."
