Ratchet & Clank: Full Frontal Assault (known as Ratchet & Clank: QForce in Europe and Australia) is an action game with tower defense and platform elements released as a 10th anniversary celebratory installment to the Ratchet & Clank series. It was released on November 27, 2012. It is a downloadable PlayStation Network title on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita and it is also available on Blu-ray Disc for PlayStation 3 only. It is a shorter adventure but features online and offline two player co-operative mode and online competitive multiplayer, as well as a significantly higher replay value than the previous short adventure, Quest for Booty. The game returns to the typical Ratchet & Clank classic control style with a third-person camera, but also features a twist on tower-defense gameplay. The game is the second spin-off game created by Insomniac Games.

The game was developed by Insomniac Games North Carolina studio and the PlayStation Vita compatibility was created in collaboration with Tin Giant.
