Ratchet and Clank: Full Frontal Assault Vita
Platform: PS Vita
Everyone's favorite Lombax and sidekick robot return to Sony's smallscreen in this PS Vita version of 2012's tower defense spin-off. Exactly like Ratchet and Clank: Full Frontal Assault for PS3, this handheld versions finds the intergalactic duo booting up planetary defense systems across their galaxy in an effort to safeguard them from an invasion by one of Quark's bitter foes. Unlike past Ratchet and Clank titles, Full Front Assault trades full-on platforming for a hybrid tower defense mission wherein players must strike a balance between eliminating enemy forces, rebooting planetary defense nodes, and defending their home base. As always, however, players will have an arsenal of outrageous weapons to aid them in their quest for galactic peace. Online multiplayer and co-op modes will also be included.
