When it comes to talking🤡 about the most over-the-top weaponry featured in video games, it's only a matter of time before Ratchet & Clank takes center stage in this conversation due to its vast array of weapons, most of which are perfectly absurd in the best of ways.
Today, we'll go over some of the weirdest, wildest, or outri🥃ght strangest weapons to have ever been featured over the breadth of the series.𝕴 Most of them end up being quite a blast to use — quite literally at times!
Updated on June 17, 2021 by Ritwik Mitra: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart has released on the PS5, with fans salivating at the opportunity to finally get their hands on the latest entry in the beloved series. Players are now witnessing firsthand just how well this ambitious game is showcasing the generational leap in power from the PS4 to the PS5. Thankfully, that's not the only thing that Rift Apart does — the game has also contributed to the franchise's legacy of including some hysterical, terrifying, and wild weapons.
15 ▨ Blackhole🧸 Storm
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is easily one of the best games in the enti𓃲re seri🐽es, and it's rather fitting that this landmark title also features a new and powerful weapon that will fit right at home with fans of the wacky series.
The Blackhole Storm is a powerful gatling gun that can decimate any foe in Ratchet'⛎s path... provided he doesn't waste too much time when charging the gun's spin and preventing it from overheating.
A major reason why the Blackhole Storm makes this list is thatꦯ upgrading it allows the weapon to straight-up explode enemies after🤪 they're peppered with enough shots.
14 😼 Topiary Sprinkl♓er
The idea of a weapon that shoots out mini-sprinkler turrets is an idea that could've only tꦍaken root in Ratchet & Clank, and a weapon like this appears in Rift Apart to add to Ratcher and Rivet's bizarr🐓e expanding arsenal.
The Topiღary Sprinkler is easily one of the wackiest weapons in Rift Apart. It allows players to plant turrets that spray water onto enemies, turning them into foliage that can be blown up to cause area-of-effect damage. It's an extremely unique weapon that feel💎s right at home in the Ratchet & Clank series.
13 🌞 Tornado Launcher
The Tornado Launcher is a weapon that arrived in the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ratchet & Clank series with the release of Ratchet & Clank: Tools For Destruction and re-appeared in several other games in the fr🐻anchise. Tornadoes are a natural disaꦆster that most people overlook until they're directly affected.
Luckily (or unluckily) for enemies in Ratchet & Clank, they had a first-hand account of just how destructive a weapon that shot tornado-gener🧔ating discs can be.
12 Bouncer
Anyone afraid of spiders will say that their fear of 💦stepping on a spider is it being pregnant and the force of the smash birthing hundreds of spiders. In Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando, there was a gun that did exactly this... except, instead of spiders, it used bombs instead.
The Bouncer would shoot a rather large bomb and upon explosi🎃on, it would turn into smaller bombs called bomblets. With a rather slow rate of fire, it can make the user compromised in a firefight, but the cluster of explosions can be used rather effectively.
11 Rift Inducer ꧂
Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal was a rath⛄er aggressively cheeky title for a game, but it ended up being a solid entry in the beloved series. A gun manufactured in the game by Gadgetr🐭on that's rather wild is the Rift Inducer.
It fires a small black hole that sucks up any nearby enemies and kills them almost instantaneously. It's one thing to be shot and bleed to death, but another thing entirely to b🐽e sucked into the cold depths of space only to be consumed by nothingness in the blink of an eye.
10 Sheepinator 🌠
The Sheepinator is easily one of the goofiest yet most enjoyable weapons that players can use in Ratchet & Clank, largely due to the fact that this weapon turns full-blown enemies into meek sheep! This Sheepinator can also be upgraded to turn it into a Black Sheepinator, turning enemies into black sheep that explode after some𝔉 time.
There are various weapons present in the Ratchet & Clank series that morph enemies into something different, but the Sheepinator stands𝄹 out in this regard due to its hilarious morphing ability — it never fails 🧜to elicit a guffaw whenever it's used.
9 R.Y.N.O.
Outside of the OmniWrench, many fans would consider theꦜ Rip Ya A New On🦋e or R.Y.N.O. for short to be one of the more iconic weapons in the franchise. It's seen many different forms and iterations over the years and is commonly recurring throughout the series.
It's a missile launcher, that when fired targets specific enemies on the battlefield. Unlike normal missile launchers, it has the ability to s🐈hoot up to nine missiles per fire. It is best known for having a high range 🐓and a medium rate of fire.
8 OmniWre𝔍nch
Speaking of the OmniWrench, it would be remiss to not talk about thꦏe most iconic weapons in Ratchet & Clank without paying homage to this iconic melee weapon.
The OmniWrench has seen various minor variations through𓃲out the series, but its reliability in a pinch has always remained constant no matter wha⭕t. Long-time fans of the series will always have a blast as they whack enemies with this iconic futuristic wrench.
7 💧 Bee Mine Glove
Humans as a species have a lot of natural fears that came about over the course of time and evolution. They were ins🐻tilled with these fears as a biological mechanism to protect themselves and survive. This is why a weapon like the Bee Mine Glove seems like something inhumane in a real-✃world context.
It made its mark in Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters and unveiled its ability when fired to launch a swarm of bees at the enemy. These bees are not only robotic, but they also happen to ex🌜plode on contact.
6 Pixelizer
Some of the weapons on this list are wild due to how violent or scary they are, but the Pixelizer made the list due to how out there it is. This gun turn🧸s whatever it hits into 2-dimensional pixel images and when the enemy is killed they shatter into a collection of pixel blocks.
This is meant to invoke old-school video games and the weapon made its series debut in the most recent 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ratchet & Clank entry, the 2016 re-imaginin🌌g that launched alongside a feature animated film featuring the t🌺itular characters from the video game franchise.
