Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is the latest PlayStation game ported to PC. While it got attention thanks to the use of DirectStorage 1.2, its launch numbers are quite unimpressive compared to SIE’s other first-party titles on Steam.
I think it’s just a bad price. You can get it for $40 or so new for PS5, it was released 2 tests ago, and it’s a short game (like 15 hours), yet they’re charging $60 on PC. It should have launched at $40.
This. I have played through the game twice on PS5 and as much as I love R&C I’m not buying it full price a second time. Had they released any of the older games ramastered on PC (think MCC) it would have been an instant purchase
Maybe it’s not as good a match for PC gamer demographics as their other games?

Iirc it was also one of the larger releases for that new platform that was desperate for the sort of experience that can shift consoles.
I wonder how many people have already played it on PS5 and just aren’t interested in a second go around.

It seems right up my ally to me like with Kena, but that game was 20 compared to 60.
