LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM / BUSAN, KOREA - May 23rd, 2025 — Sunscorched Studios and Dark Product are proud to announce that Ratshaker™, the unhinged pest-control simulator that took the PC world by storm, will make its console debut on PlayStation 5, starting May 28, 2025.
Rebuilt from the nest up for consoles, Ratshaker™ on PS5 uses the DualSense™ wireless controller’s gyroscope to deliver a hilariously immersive experience. For the first time ever, players can physically shake their controller to shake the rat - an absurd, satisfying mechanic brought to life with detailed motion input and hyper-reactive feedback.
What Is Ratshaker™?At its core, Ratshaker™ is a satirical, physics-based first-person game about solving problems the old-fashioned way - by grabbing a rat and shaking the ever-loving squeak out of it. It’s weird. It’s dark. And somehow, it’s deeply cathartic.
PlayStation 5 Features Include:- Gyro-Powered Pest Control – Shake your DualSense™ to physically control your in-game rat.
- Hyper-Realistic RAT Physics™ – Every flail, flop, and squeal has been finely tuned for tactile feedback.
- Effortless Pest Removal – Just grab, shake, and watch as your “problems” disappear.
- Your rat responds to every shake... sometimes unexpectedly.
- No Traps. No Mess. (Some Guilt.) – A clean conscience not included.
RATSHAKER™ is the fun and quirky solution to all your rat problems! Hold on to the RAT, shake your arm, and watch life’s problems disappear! How far can you go
This is your chance to shake, rattle, and roll in the most ridiculous way possible - only on PlayStation.
Wishlist now via the PlayStation Store or pay to shake on launch for $3.49 USD | €3.49 EUR - it's a small price to pay for a big shake!
