A new Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart update for PlayStation 5 has been released and we’ve got the full release notes.
Update 1.002 for Rift Apart was released yesterday but no details about its contents were shared just yet. Various players already reported that the new patch added a new 120Hz display mode at 40FPS, and the official release notes for the new update confirm that this is indeed the case.
The 120Hz display mode in performance mode was disabled some weeks ago as this mode introduced several visual compatibility issues on some screens. Fast forward two weeks and developer Insomniac Games has now addressed this issue.
In addition to adding the new 120Hz display mode, the new 1.002 update also adds new stickers to the game alongside the ability to disable the Rivet’s and Ratchet’s Phantom Dash VFX. Users are now also able to toggle armor on or off in the photo mode and change color backgrounds. Alongside the above-mentioned changes, the patch comes with numerous fixes and improvements. You’ll find all of them in the official release notes down below:
