Sony cancels Ratchet & Clank: Ranger Rumble before its global launch

Sony and developer Oh BiBi have cancelled Ratchet & Clank: Ranger Rumble, the free-to-play mobile arena shooter, announcing the decision on the game’s official website on Friday 6 November. The game never reached a worldwide launch: it entered soft launch in the Philippines and Indonesia in November 2025 and later expanded to markets including the UK and Canada. A final update rolled out on 6 November, in-app purchases have been removed, and the Super Pass is now free. The game leaves the App Store and Google Play on Saturday 21 November, and its servers shut down on Saturday 1 May 2027, after which it will no longer load. Oh BiBi says the cancellation does not affect other Ratchet & Clank games or PlayStation services, and no reason was given for the decision.
