With its use of DirectStorage 1.2 and high-end ray tracing, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is a cutting-edge PC release aiming to match and exceed the PlayStation 5 version of the game. There's much to commend here, but it's another PC release that arrives with users with bugs and issues that suggest that the game isn't quite finished.
