A culmination of 10 years of hard work. An experience that is at times relaxing, soothing, thrilling and even sentimental. Technically spotless, artistically impeccable, this is an experience not to be missed.

Astro Bot is an excellent platformer. Fun, accessible, very varied and full of collectibles. The references to the various franchises and games that have gone through the history of PlayStation consoles is something sensational, especially the phases themed with specific series. The only drawback is that it's relatively short, and it looks easy for veterans of 3D platformers.

With copious amounts of variety, a delightful presentation, rewarding collectibles, an absurd amount of references, and cuteness to spare, ASTRO BOT is one of the best 3D platformers ever created. It's essentially a tribute to gaming as a whole. 🤖

Astro Bot reminded me not only of how much I love 3D platformers but also of how much I love PlayStation—and video games in general. From start to finish, the little robot kept me glued to my PS5 and wouldn’t let go. If you own a PlayStation 5, no matter your age, I highly recommend getting this game immediately. Play it, laugh, and have fun, because there are very few games like this in today’s gaming industry.

Astro Bot is incredibly charming and deeply nostalgic, all the while delivering creativity on par with some of the best Nintendo has to offer. There are a few minor hiccups along the way, but beneath it all there's an undeniable playfulness that will resonate with both new and old PlayStation fans alike.

The new Playstation exclusive softens hearts with its cuteness and technical and design quality, but it also shows how easily companies can grab us with cheap nostalgia for products that, although of quality, are just a display of grandeur disguised as homage.

Astro Bot is a beautiful tribute to the trajectory that PlayStation has covered in its 30 years of existence. It manages to prove that the 3D platform game style is still alive and that, above all, it can have a lot of quality. I can't remember the last time I felt so excited about playing such a simple title, but with so much content. Now comes the real question: "Is this Astro, the new PlayStation mascot?" In my opinion, I think there is no other character as impactful at this exact moment as Astro and, after a game of this caliber, it would be more than fair to place him as the new face of this great company.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Period. Astro Bot speaks for itself. Given the original Trojan Horse’s success, it’s no surprise that Team Asobi’s complete vision is a triumph, as evidenced by the rating below. While it’s not the most challenging platformer, this Sony title has few rivals in terms of sheer quality and inspiration, thanks to phenomenal artistic direction woven with tasteful fan service. Astro Bot’s strength lies in its ability to captivate through impeccable use of DualSense features, providing an experiential boost that's hard to replicate. After some tough days for PlayStation fans, Astro’s adventure couldn’t have arrived at a better time, showing Sony’s ability to hit the mark while keeping an eye on its past and future.

Astro Bot is a game with an incredible amount of love put into it. It’s not quite at the level of a game that makes a PlayStation 5 worth owning all by itself, and it’s not especially long, but it’s the kind of game that any console would gladly feature in its library as a key title. It’s a game with a fair amount of nostalgia behind it, both in terms of its wide array of cameos and it being a collectathon, but it stands on its own as a triumphant adventure of fun and charm in its own right. My playthrough had me smiling at so many points and served as a great reminder of all the hours of joy that I’ve had with PlayStation games over the years.

We didn't want to stop playing Astro Bot, and we guarantee that in the past year, no game has grabbed us like Team Asobi's IP. Astro Bot is the missing piece of the puzzle, a 3D platformer that is nothing short of perfect and that arrives - given the lack of Sony-branded games of weight (with the exception of Concord, which unfortunately didn't get the right response) - at the right time, not only for Sony and PS5 - which needed it like crazy - but for all avid fans of 3D platformers. Astro Bot is a real gem, an outstanding platformer of the modern era that will be much talked about now and also in the near future.

Friday 6th September will forever be remembered as the fateful date when Astro Bot practically danced on Concord’s grave. As Concord draws its last breath, the countdown ends, signifying the launch of Astro Bot. Without hesitation, Astro Bot and his spaceship crew dances the day away at midnight while getting drunk on oil.
