Looking for Fun 3D Platformers with Lots of Jumping and Collecting

-

I’m hunting for 3D platformer games where you jump around and collect items—doesn’t need to be as polished as Mario Odyssey, but something in that vibe. Games like A Hat In Time, SpongeBob The Cosmic Shake, and Kao the Kangaroo are exactly what I enjoy. I wish there was an easier way to find these types of games in the catalog.

Sonic Frontiers and Sonic Colors Ultimate are worth checking out too. Sonic Colors Ultimate was even free recently if you grabbed it in time. Though 3D platformers like this are pretty rare these days, so it can be tough to find new ones.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart might surprise you! Even if you thought it was mostly about shooting, it actually has some fun platforming elements and exploration that fit well with the collecting and jumping style. Definitely give it a try if you haven’t yet.

Thanks for the tip! I’ll give Rift Apart a shot now since it sounds more platformy than I expected.

Crash Bandicoot and Ratchet and Clank are great choices if you want polished platformers with lots of jumping and collecting. Both series have solid gameplay and fun level designs that fit what you’re looking for.
