Fans of the hit Ratchet and Clank franchise will have a little more to cheer about come early October. Insomniac's new installment, Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, will debut on the PlayStation Store on October 4th as a demo for PlayStation 3 owners.

The rumor first leaked during an interview on TheDaily.com.au, where an Insomniac employee stated, "we essentially flat-out demolish the symbol of PlayStation 2 Ratchet & Clank: the city of Metropolis [in Tools of Destruction]. Players will get a sneak peek of this level via a downloadable demo that should hit the PlayStation Network Store in the not-too-distant future." The comment was premature for Insomniac, but further investigation by IGN.com found that PS3 owners will enjoy the first level of Ratchet and Clank on the aforementioned date.

More good news for October, with the potential release of Home and now the Ratchet and Clank: ToD demo. Stay tuned to PSU for more PlayStation news.
