Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus is an entry in the Ratchet & Clank series serving as an epilogue to the Future saga, developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment.

The game takes place in four worlds in the Polaris Galaxy (including three in the abandoned Zarkov Sector, said to be "haunted"), in which Ratchet and Clank have been assigned to escort dangerous criminal Vendra Prog, the last of a race known as the nethers, to the Vartax Detention Center on the Nebulox Seven Prison Ship. When her brother Neftin Prog hires the mercenary group Thugs 4 Less to free her, she seeks to bring the nethers from the Netherverse to attack this dimension. Ratchet and Clank aim to stop her from doing that, but Prog's search to find her own race may give Ratchet the opportunity to search for his own. The plot centers around Ratchet coming to terms with the decisions he made in A Crack in Time.

Into the Nexus is a third person action adventure game in the vein of core Ratchet & Clank gameplay, with elements of platforming, shooting, role playing and side scrolling. It features many new weapons and gadgets based on manipulating gravity and interacting with the Netherverse, along with many weapons and gadgets returning from past titles. It also features entirely new Clank gameplay, in which Clank completes side-scrolling sections within the Netherverse wherein he can manipulate gravity to reach objectives.
