Its a very creative and stunningly poloshed experience with a cartoon style humor and sensibility. Even the original was an unexpected masterpiece. Dont ruin games by watching it all on YouTube first.

As a huge fan of platformers i can say with confidence that this goes above and beyond. As a huge Mario Galaxy fan this scratches the itch I have been having for a while. From the power-ups that make me feel invincible and enjoy button mashing, to the unique levels that are vibrant and eye catching. With more than 300 bots and items to collect the game rewards you for exploring levels and doesn’t make it feel overwhelming. There’s so much more to the game that makes it amazing but i wont spoil it in my review. Especially in the levels where you get to use some of the abilities of your favorite PlayStation stars! I only wish that game is longer but other than that amazing job Team Asobi! I hope to see this game at the game awards this year!

I had so much fun with this game. It’s simple to pick up and play and greatly encourages completion. Every level has it’s own distinct theme in both scenery and music. It’s visually pleasing and the songs are nicely composes. Considering that you’re also travelling to different galaxies and planets, it pretty much serves as Sony’s version of Mario Galaxy. The collectibles serve as a nice PlayStation history lesson, which is gimmicky, but it is respectible. Even though it’s not a long game, you’ll still enjoy your time with it. Any PS5 owner should play this.

This is such a fun, great game! Our 5 year old has learned quickly and even for a game vet like myself, some levels are challenging. The storyline is cute and engaging. If it was just me, I could have ran through this game pretty quickly but spending time together is totally worth it.

It's very rare that a game holds my 7 year old's attention for more than a few hours, ans I was hesitant to get this game because I thought it was just be a minor continuation of the freeone that came with the PS5 but i was weong. It's a compeltely new game with lots of fun stuff to find. The secrets sre challenging enough to be fun to find but not too hard to where a kid can't find them. There are a lot of fun collectibles and the level design is awesome. There's a bunch of unique game mechanics and power ups. There's no complicated story or cutscenes, it's a simple yet fun game for all ages. I haven't beaten it myself yet since my daughter will not get off and let me play lol. The game could probably be 100%ed in about 8-10 hours by a seasoned player but my kid has been playing for about 16 hours and is about halfway, so for that alone i think it's worth it.

Astro Bot is the best 3D platformer I've played since Super Mario Odyssey. It's colorful and gorgeous, cute, and tons of fun (So fun that I've already played it to 100% completion on all 3 save files). As well as very challenging in some stages. This game is also a love letter to everything on Playstation. If you own a Playstation 5, this is a must-have for your game library.

I had high hopes for this game when I saw that it was coming out and I can say after playing the game in its entirety it has exceeded those expectations. Astro Bot is a joy to play, watch be played and even just listen to given the great soundtrack. For someone who has played Nintendo games his whole life Astro Bot can be easily be compared to those great platformers. Even if you are not a big Playstation fan you owe it to yourself to play this game. It is just fun. Each level is unique and builds on itself as you progress though the game. There are various mechanics you'll be introduced to that will keep you in your toes and always saying, what's next? The length of the game is great and does not overstay its welcome nor does it lack on content. Once you have finished the base game the developer has added challenging new levels that add more fun and bots to collect. If you own a Playstation 5 you need this game.

One of the best platforming games of all time. On the level of Mario's best, with as much character and charm as the best of them, and some of the tightest controls and unique and inspired levels/power ups that just put a smile on your face.
The mainline levels are easy enough for children, but there are plenty of very challenging levels per "world", as well as special challenge levels and speed run levels for you if you like a good challenge. There is plenty of content for both the casual and the hardcore platforming fans.
If you're a Playstation fan, or have a any Playstation history, the nostalgia is AAA+

Man, Astro Bot is the full-blown sequel to that freebie Astro’s Playroom that my kids played and replayed. Now with over 80 wild levels across six galaxies, where you’re rescuing your bot buddies from crazy worlds.   
Power-ups are next-level fun: turn into a shrinking mouse dodging giants, squeeze a giant sponge to blast water, punch with frog arms, or ride a jetpack dog that smashes everything.   
I thought the DualSense controller was shown off pretty well with the first game but I’ll be darned if they didn’t take it to the next level. You feel every texture buzzing through your hands, triggers squeeze like real sponges, and gyro controls make flying your ship feel alive. It’s PS5 magic at its best.   
Standout moments like “Downsize Surprise” shrink you into chaos, plus nostalgic PS cameos continue as you would expect. It really hits that sweet spot of creativity without any frustration. Levels are replayable. . Lastly I would add value wise, definately worth it. My 8 year old, Totally obsessed, and keeps calling me in regularly to show me what he can do next, and for me, them logging hours hunting bots in a fun wholesome environment is totally worth the $60 asking price. Steal of the century, beats any sitter bribe hands down. Not to mention the smack talking skills my son has developed along the way as I try and fail to show him how its done. Take my money!

I bought this game for my son, he loves this game. I loved all the old school PlayStation systems that they have in here plus the game itself is really entertaining

Astro Bot is an absolute delight from start to finish. It’s bursting with charm, color, and creativity—every level feels like a love letter to PlayStation fans. The gameplay is tight and satisfying, the visuals are stunning, and the use of the DualSense controller is probably the best I’ve experienced so far. It’s not just a tech demo anymore—this is a full-on platforming masterpiece. Whether you're a longtime gamer or playing with your kids, this game is a must-have for any PS5 owner!

This is a delightful game, and a real love letter to Playstation's past. This is a 3-D platformer with a strong focus on collectables - most of which are tributes to other Playstation games and franchises associated with Playstation (for example, Metal Gear and Final Fantasy). The addition of free DLC since the game's release has also provided additional content that's extended the game's shelf life. There aren't a lot of quality family-friendly games in Playstation's repertoire, which makes this one shine even more.

My boys (8 and 4) favorite game. Both are able to play and enjoy this game. They completed it quickly but the game remains fun as there are lots of side things to do still after beating main path. The game was shipped quickly and we received it undamaged from Best Buy. I was happy with everything in this purchase.

This is one of the best platformers ever made! Great visuals, great soundtrack, super responsive controls, addictive, and a very quality made game. If you’re a big Playstation fan then you will get hit with nostalgia from the bots you rescue from each level!! If you have played the free PS5 pack in game Astro’s Playroom, and wanted more, then this is exactly what you’re looking for. Its Astro’s Playroom but made into a full fledged game and its even better and more improved. There’s a reason this is the highest rated game of 2024! I highly recommend it
