V1.5 — Visual Controls Preview
More control over the look of Ratchet & Clank on PC. V1.5 brings dedicated
motion-blur and shadow-detail options to the launcher, alongside the existing
experimental 60 FPS mode.
New visual controls
Motion blur
Keep the game's original motion blur or turn it off. A single setting controls
the general effect, making it easier to choose the presentation you prefer.
Shadow detail
Choose from four shadow-map settings:
| Setting | Shadow-map resolution |
|---|---|
| Original | The game's original settings |
| 1024 px | Up to 1024 × 1024 per map |
| 512 px | Up to 512 × 512 per map |
| 256 px | Up to 256 × 256 per map |
Lower caps reduce shadow detail. Each value is a maximum; individual shadows
may already use a smaller map. Coverage of separate sun shadows remains unverified.
Direct access in the launcher
Both controls are available on Home and Graphics, with Original as the
default. Changes take effect after restarting the game.
Settings improvements
- Motion-blur and shadow preferences remain saved when using the in-game menu.
- The in-game Graphics information panel shows the effects selected for the
current launch. - Either effect can return to Original independently, while keeping the other
graphics preferences.
Frame-rate options
30 FPS / Original and 60 FPS (experimental) remain available. The new
visual settings can be used with either mode.

This is an experimental preview. The new visual controls still require in-game
validation; image quality and performance can vary by scene and hardware.
No game files are included.
