Astro Bot is a for VR platforming instant classic. In some ways, it is to virtual reality what Mario 64 was to 3D, as it uses a new technology to push new boundaries in the genre. We would have loved for it to last a bit longer though !

By dint of perseverance and experimentation, Japan Studio managed to offer the setting that Astro deserved. With an endearing mascot that could be fully exploited by PlayStation, which we hope, the title has everything we are entitled to expect from a VR production.
