Customer Ratings & Reviews

stro Bot is one of those rare games that feels like pure joy from the moment it starts. It’s playful, inventive, and packed with the kind of small design touches that remind you someone cared deeply about every corner of it. What really stands out is how the game constantly surprises you — not with big twists, but with clever mechanics, charming animations, and levels that feel handcrafted rather than procedurally assembled. Astro himself is expressive without saying a word, and the game leans into that charm. Every world feels like a little theme park of ideas: tight platforming, creative gadgets, and environmental puzzles that never overstay their welcome. It’s the kind of game where you finish a level and immediately want to see what the next one has in store. The controls are crisp, the pacing is smooth, and the whole experience has this polished, joyful energy that’s hard not to love. It’s approachable for casual players but still satisfying for people who appreciate tight mechanics and thoughtful level design. If you’re looking for something that blends nostalgia with modern creativity — a platformer that respects your time and rewards your curiosity — Astro Bot is an easy recommendation. It’s simply fun in a way games sometimes forget to be.

This is easily the most impressive platformer I have played on the PS5. It does an amazing job of showing off what the console can actually do, especially with the controller haptics and triggers. Every movement feels unique, and the vibrant levels are amazing to explore. It feels like PlayStation has a true mascot character again that is full of personality. The game is a huge hit in our house because it is so easy to pick up and play. My kids are still playing it regularly, and the replayability is fantastic. The developers (Team ASOBI) have also kept things fresh with regular updates and new levels, which makes it feel like a great value. Whether you are a long-time fan or new to the platform, there is so much to love here.

Forget the PlayStation platformer mascots of PS past. Crash, Spyro, Jak and even Sly Cooper himself have got nothing on Astro Bot. This game has Super Mario levels of polished and creative design that is all so incredibly fun to play. The controls are super tight and responsive while making some very creative use of the DualSense controller’s haptics and adaptive triggers. This can best be felt when using the powerup weapons, blasting off on the controller ship or in any of the excellent boss fights. The entire game is loaded with whimsical charm. The music is all super catchy and charming like the score found in any great Sonic or Mario game. The bot characters are all super cute and most of them reference the great PS games from SIE and third-party publishers like Capcom and Konami. I loved seeing MGS and RE pop up in this game! Shame Square-Enix couldn’t play ball with their characters. The environments are super colorful and nicely varied from spooky old haunted ruins to snowy mountain tops. This is really the closest thing PlayStation has ever had to a “Mario” game. It oozes with the same love and care that Nintendo puts into the 3D main Mario games. I had a blast playing this one with my kids. It really reminded me of playing Mario 64 with my family back in the day. It’s actually that good. Do yourself a favor and play Astro Bot!

My five year old son has been wanting to play this game since he's seen it on the PS4 but could never play it because we needed to upgrade. We got him the new PlayStation so he and the family could start playing the newest games and he got this have for Christmas. He loves it and it's everything he wanted it to be. I haven't really played it much but it seems pretty cool it's only a one player though.

This game is amazing! We learned about Astro Bot after playing Astro Playroom, and this did not disappoint. It's like all the best elements of a platform can be found in the game. Additionally, the game was well-packaged and is one of those games in which a physical copy is a MUST-HAVE. We look forward to the next Astro game!

What a blast this game is! My personal GOTY. If you have kids, dont miss out on this game. Its packed with family fun and the nostalgia of platform games mixed with awesome technology. Congratulations to Team Asobi and thank you Best Buy for my copy.

If you enjoy playing Mario bros games, you'll love the Astro Bot games. This one I bought for my kids, but I ended up playing it more than they do. This game is a 10 out of 10. Gameplay is so entertaining. Lots of cool lil Easter eggs and hidden stuff in the Astro Bot games.

Game of the Year! I love the game mechanics, the worlds are gorgeously rendered, the levels are not too difficult, and Astrobot is the new face of Playstation. All the little easter eggs are adorable too and brought me back to my childhood- nostalgia overload. Its a great game to play with the family too. Must-buy!

Such a beautiful piece of gaming bought it off of Best Buy at only $43.49. Came in excellent condition, and fast pick up time too. Runs smoothly on my PS5 and feels great with the duel sense controller. Would purchase more games from Best Buy

Love this game! My 10yo is obsessed but I find myself asking him to play it too. The graphics are cool and the gameplay is super fun. It's challenging but not so hard you want to give up on it.

A1, AAA game! This game reminds me of the impact Crash Bandicoot had on the original PlayStation. Astrobot won Game Of The Year for a good reason!

Game of the year. A very fun family friendly platformer. Move over Mario, there's a new guy in town.

This game is one of the few that I have Platinumed. Some of the challenges at the end are really tough, but I kept trying, some for multiple days in a row, and I was able to beat all the levels including the free DLC. I think it was totally worth it!

Amazing game. Nice homage to 3D Mario games while also celebrating 30 years of PlayStation history. Not overly difficult while some levels can be a challenge and might take multiple attempts. Perfect for younger audience but adults can enjoy it just as well. Graphics look gorgeous and not a single frame drop in sight on the PS5. The haptic triggers and dual sense features are featured in clever and inventive ways on almost every level and are a blast. Amazing exclusive for PlayStation owners. Worth the $50 I paid for it.

Amazing game play. Perfect way to continue the fun after Astro’s playroom. My 5 year old loves it so much he asked for a shirt.

If you like 3d platformers and collectathon games like Mario, Spyro, etc. then i highly recomend buying Astro Bot. I also bought the Limited Edition Astro Bot Controller as well because i like this game so much. My only complaint is that i had to pay mark up price and buy controller from Ebay Seller because it sold out in stores. I am about 50% complete after playing for roughly 40 hours. I plan to 100% complete and also get the Plantium Trophy. After i'm done i am going to play Astro's Playroom which i never played before.

This games is so polished it’s well deserved of GOTY

My son can’t stop playing this game! Definitely the best game so far for kids!

This platformer game brings me back to my childhood! Now, I'm 48 years old and mostly play this with kids, but try to secretly sneak in some playtime here and there. All of the cameos to Playstation games gets me every time. Just the satisfaction of throwing the Leviathan Axe is enough the justify the pricetag. Just a must play game for the PS5 and guaranteed to bring genuine magic and joy with each playthrough for fans of Playstation 1 through now.

Love the addition! Great for the family! my sons love it!
