** The kicker of it all is that both dimensional predicaments were caused by the heroes (Ratchet causing the Dimensionator to backfire in ''Rift Apart'', and the Bandicoots breaking the Time Twister to trap the scientists in another dimension, only for them to escape in ''It's About Time'').

*** Even if the specific city shown in the trailer does not end up being Haven City, due to the multiverse being an important part of the game many fans are speculating that the worlds of various different [=PlayStation=] properties will show up in some form through cameoes, explorable worlds, or DLC, with the worlds of ''VideoGame/JakAndDaxter'' and ''VideoGame/SlyCooper'' being the most popular guesses due to their relationship with the ''Ratchet & Clank'' franchise.

** Adding to this is that the unreleased ''Crash Bandicoot Evolution'' had too similar a premise with the original ''VideoGame/RatchetAndClank2002'' (a villain trying to take pieces of other planets to construct a new one), hence why it was cancelled and eventually re-tooled into ''VideoGame/CrashTwinsanity''.

This confusion got big enough that the devs regretted not giving her one. This game confirms they have, and quite magnificent ones at that.
