Sony Brings Ratchet & Clank to Mobile With Free Arena Shooter Ranger Rumble

The soft-launched spin-off signals PlayStation’s smartphone ambitions through a partnership with mobile studio Oh BiBi.

Overview

  • Ranger Rumble is live in select countries on iOS and Android, with pre-registration open elsewhere via the official site.
  • Insomniac is collaborating with Paris-based Oh BiBi, bringing franchise characters, over-the-top weapons, and real-time multiplayer to phones.
  • The game features multiple online modes, including team-based Total Rumble, a soccer-style Blast Ball, and collection-focused Bolt Rush.
  • It is free-to-play with character customization, with outlets reporting that microtransactions are likely given the model.
  • No global release date or window has been announced, and coverage frames the project as a mobile spin-off rather than a mainline console entry.
