8 years later: Ratchet & Clank 2016 gets a new update adding the Bouncer weapon

The update adds fan-favourite weapon the Bouncer, which fires a bouncing grenade-like bomb that splits into smaller bouncing clusters upon explosion.

The weapon was previously seen in PS2 games Going Commando and Up Your Arsenal, as well as PS5 game Rift Apart.

Fruity community and marketing director at Insomniac James Stevenson added he's been "trying to make this happen for like half a decade".

And still ain't fixed that fucking Death by Disco trophy bug. It's the only one missing for my platinum and I beat the game 4 times and made sure to use the Groovitron on every single enemy. I even kept a list but never got it.

I was confused for a second because I've always had this weapon in the game. I had forgotten it was a preorder bonus.

Fired it up over the weekend. Game still looks fuckin sick and I forgot it did a couple little cool things that I wish were brought to Rift Apart like the holodeck cards and (brief) dogfighting sections.

Yeah I’m thinking I prefer this to RA. Still saccharine compared to the OG but not as ridiculously over friendly that Rift Apart was.

This should be on PC instead of rift apart.

This game is absolute trash compared to the OG which actually has growth for Ratchet. Like the wonder and comfiness of the first game on a TV back in the day was unbelievable. Sure I'll take all RCs on PC, but this one was my least favorite.

I will say this is great thing to happen, glad at least someone (even if it's just a single guy) at these large companies cares. Like there should never be content permanently locked behind a time gated purchase, it's just scummy. So major props to that one guy at insomniac.

That said, R&C remake is one of the worst remakes of all time.
