Ratchet and Clank triumphantly return to the PlayStation 3 this fall in Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time, the continuing saga of the robot and Lombax duo.

Some of the franchise's biggest questions will be answered in A Crack in Time, as Ratchet and Clank discover the truth behind their origins and their ultimate destinies as they struggle to reunite following Clank's kidnapping be the nefarious Dr. Nefarious. The official announcement teases us with the question: "Do Ratchet and Clank's destinies lie with each other? Or is it finally time for the universe's greatest duo to separate for good?" Chilling!

Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time will be powered by the same engine that Insomniac used to craft Tools of Destruction and Quest for Booty, so whatever happens to the dynamic duo we can at least be sure they'll look fabulous as they travel through time in order to save the future.
