Ratchet & Clank 5: Gekitotsu! Dodeka Ginga no MiriMiri Gundan is the latest installment in the Ratchet & Clank franchise, released on the PlayStation Portable (PSP) in 2012. In this 3D action platformer, the duo embarks on a mysterious quest that leads them to rediscover a forgotten race of genius inventors known as the Technomites.
With an all-new arsenal of upgradable weapons and some old favorites like the Agents of Doom, the Hypershot, and the Suck Cannon, Ratchet & Clank must navigate through levels filled with platforming elements. The game features an RPG-like experience system that allows players to buy new mods, similar to Up Your Arsenal , while also collecting pieces of different armor sets.
The game includes a variety of minigames such as hovercraft races, Giant Clank's space battles, and Clank's battle robot arenas. Multiplayer is supported through Wi-Fi Ad Hoc or Infrastructure with 4 game modes: DeathMatch, Team DeathMatch, Capture the Flag, and Iron Lombox Challenge.
