Ratchet & Clank games are known for being consistently good, with some being exceptional and others just average. The PSP spin-off Secret Agent Clank, released in 2008 by High Impact Games, is considered one of the weaker entries in the series. Despite its fun premise and variety of gadgets, it falls short in comparison to other titles in the franchise.
In Secret Agent Clank, players primarily control Clank in a James Bond-style setting, with occasional levels featuring Ratchet and Captain Qwark. The goal is to help Ratchet escape from prison after being wrongly accused of a crime. The game offers a mix of third-person shooting and platforming, typical of the Ratchet & Clank series, but some players may find it lacking in depth due to Clank’s limited arsenal.
However, fans of the series can still find enjoyment in playing through the game’s five-hour campaign on PS5 and PS4. The game will also be available for free download with PS Plus Premium starting from September 17th, providing an opportunity for players to experience this lesser-known title in the Ratchet & Clank universe.
