Astro Bot is a delightful platformer that excels in delivering a fun, nostalgia-filled experience for PlayStation fans. The intuitive controls, immersive DualSense features, and visually stunning levels make it a joy to play. While the challenge might be lighter than some platformers, it more than makes up for it with its charm, creativity, and heart-warming nods to PlayStation’s history. If you’re a PS5 owner looking for a feel-good adventure, Astro Bot is an absolute must-play.
Astro Bot, Team Asobi's platformer, reaffirms what was seen in Astro's Playroom, reaching excellence and positioning itself at the top of the genre as one of the best games of the year. Team Asobi's work offers an exquisite gameplay and takes care of every single aspect that makes it up. This is not a good attempt or a great contender for the crown. On the contrary, we are talking about one of the best platformers of the last 10 years.

Quite simply, Astro Bot is a more complete experience than its predecessor, featuring all the key elements that made the franchise such a success. The developers at Team Asobi have come up with their biggest project to date, leaving us wanting more and more. Even after I'd finished the game 100%, I still wanted to play levels over and over again. Progression is addictive, and the art direction pays homage to the world of video games. Leaving aside the few problems of inaccuracy due to the genre, for me, the title is already a benchmark for 3D platform games!

Using Astro’s Playroom as a template, Team Asobi delivered a bigger and better 3D platformer with Astro Bot. This latest series entry features creative levels and mechanics that are a joy to play. And while it’s accessible to players of all skill levels, it has enough challenges to satisfy platforming experts. To top it all off, it’s an excellent tribute to PlayStation’s various iconic and lesser-known characters. Even if Astro Bot doesn’t seem like the type of game that you’d play, it’s very much worth playing given the sheer fun that you can have with its creative platforming gameplay. As such, Astro Bot has the makings of PlayStation’s next big franchise.
Astro Bot is 3D platforming with charm and fun reminiscent of the best Nintendo has to offer, in an experience that pays joyful homage to PlayStation's history.

Excellent for for gamers of all ages and abilities.
Astro Bot is well worth the price of admission and will be a great gaming option for all ages with the Holidays coming up quickly.
If, like me, you’ve been waiting for Nintendo to deliver a new 3D Mario game for the best part of a decade, look no further - Team ASOBI has done it themselves. For those who own a PlayStation, consider Astro Bot an essential purchase.
Simple..Creative..Marvelous and Genius, Astro Bot has emphasized that you don't need big AAA budgets and lots of complications to make a joyride and fun game

Astro Bot is one of the best platformer games to have come out on the PlayStation platform. It outshines in terms of creativity and with every corner in the game having a secret is just pure joy. A great flow, captivating graphics and the endless homage to the franchise characters makes the game truly legendary.
Team Asobi's Astro Bot is proof and evidence that the best 3D platformers are timeless and will always be fun when they're well-made with passion and love, and that's exactly what Astro Bot is. If you're a long-time PlayStation fan who's been with the brand since the original PS1 days, there's no way Astro Bot won't make you relive your best nostalgic memories and make you feel like a kid again, in all the best ways.
Filled with brilliant small touches that will leave a smile on your face, Astro Bot is one of the best 3D platformers ever made and a true celebration of gaming.
PlayStation has once again worked its magic, delivering a confident GOTY contender and one of the best experiences this year. Despite its simplicity, the game is supremely fun, and perhaps the highest compliment I can give is that you’ll play through the entire game with a smile on your face. Astro Bot proves that games do not need extremely bloated budgets and development times to succeed when you are laser-focused on fun and quality.
