Last week, as part of Sony’s PlayStation 5 event, Insomniac revealed Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, a new entry in the long-running platformer, which includes a new female Lombax. Last night, Insomniac tweeted that this new character isn’t just a background NPC, but will actually be playable.

Ratchet’s Lombax race has always been incredibly rare, and we’ve only caught sight of a few over the course of the series’ 18-year history. Moreover, we’ve only ever been able to play as Ratchet, so this is cool twist. We’d love to know more about this mysterious new Lombox, and now that we know she’s playable, it’s only a matter of time before we do.
