Ratchet and Clank HD trilogy collection dated

Insomniac has officially revealed the Ratchet and Clank Trilogy, an HD collection of Insomniac’s acclaimed PS2 platformer franchise.

The pack includes PS2 titles Ratchet and Clank, R&C: Going Commando (Locked and Loaded in Europe) and R&C: Up Your Arsenal (simply R&C 3 in Europe).

The collection’s titles will feature 1080p HD support (720p in 3D) and add three platinum trophies to earn. The competitive online multiplayer component from Up Your Arsenal has been included as well.

The bundle will be available May 16th in Europe according to the EU PS Blog, and sometime this fall in North America; with Insomniac providing a vague explanation for the discrepancy.

"I know it’s a little bit later than the spring European release,” Insomniac Games’ CEO Ted Price confessed on the US PS Blog. But it’s because we have something very special planned for our North American fans to celebrate the 10th anniversary, and we’ll share all the details very soon.”
