    This game is a great adventure platform game that is fun to play with your family. This game is still fun to play alone alone. Unfortunately it is not a co-op game, but we just rotate who plays a level and its easy enough for anyone to beat.

    I had feared platformers coming from non Nintendo AAA companies were gone, but doing Astro’s Playroom as a pack in game with the PS5, and that being so popular that they developed a full Astro Bot game, I think those fears are gone after the game won Game of the Year. So many cool concepts for traversal. Beautiful levels. The haptic feel coming from the controllers cannot be over stated. This and Astro’s Playroom are the only games out there fully taking advantage of the PS5 controller’s capabilities. There’s even a speaker in the controller that plays just the right amount of sound, and knows when to play sound, and more importantly when not to.

    I was a big fan of Astro's Playroom, the pack in demo game that comes with every PS5. So when I saw that it was getting a full game, I was excited. But I was not expecting to be absolutely bkown away by how excellent this game is. Everything about just kept a smile on my face everytime I booted it up. Its easy to play, fun, full of cameos from other games that keeps you guessing of "who else is in this game?". Kids and adults can enjoy this title, and its my personal game of the year.

    Love the game, sound, visual, gameplay mechanics. The music is really amazing! I have the soundtrack on my playlist. There’s a lot of PlayStation iconic characters that I grew up with and seeing them put a big smile on my face. I beat the game 100%. Definitely recommend this if you wanna see your old childhood game characters and have a blast playing.

    I’m about halfway into the game and so far it has been a constant blast! The game itself is incredibly creative with its gimmicks and worlds. The music is a joy, the platforming feels smooth and responsive, and the level design is immersive and fun. Highly recommend Astro Bot for those who have a love for platform genre games or really anyone who is looking for a genuine fun time! There are tons of references to Sony’s video game history that will make anyone smile! I hope Sony keeps this up!

    Astrobot looks, plays, and overall runs very similar to the previous game Astrobot's Playroom (the free demo on PS5). If you liked the previous game, you would like this one. Graphically they look the same, performance is very smooth, and the game makes use of the DualSense controller haptics. The game adds some new abilities which change up the gameplay however they can be pretty similar. To nitpick the game, a couple of the new abilities do the same rocket propelled movement albeit one makes you go up and the other propels you forward. There isn't much variety, and you'll have one of them per level if you have one at all. The character move set is the same as before and a bit limited. You get the same laser double jump and the same swing attack. The main levels throughout the game are easy and provide checkpoints to respawn at if you die. The challenge levels have a higher spike of difficulty. They don't have any checkpoints, and you must restart from the beginning any time you die. The game has a lot of levels, but about halfway through it starts to get repetitive due to the easier nature of the game and the small amount of abilities.

    Easy to see why this won Game of the Year. I don't play my PS5 much, but there definitely are some gems on there, including this one. It's fun for everyone and provides a good challenge while not being overly difficult.

    I can't believe how great this game is. With everyone giving it perfect scores, I figured I would be disappointed, but it still blew me away. Astro Bot feels like both a love letter to PlayStation fans (new & old), as well as a flat-out amazing 3D platformer that rivals the likes of the 3D Mario games. The ingenuity and creativity of the game is practically unheard of nowadays, and I hope we get more games like this soon.

    Amazing platformer, almost as good as Mario Galaxy

    Stellar game. Inventive, fun, great graphics- this feels very similar to something like Mario Galaxy or Odyssey. It doesn't quite hit that lofty comparison (nor is it as long as Odyssey), but it's close in quality and fun. A few of the optional levels are quite challenging (especially the final optional one), which is great. If you want a top-notch platformer on a next gen system, this is the right one to buy

    Astro Bot is one of the best platforming games out there, accessible enough for little gamers to play the base game, and challenging enough to make seasoned gamers keep coming back for more.

    Wow! What a great game. I mean. I really think this could be the Sony PlayStation 5's game of the Year. My son and I love astrobot and the previous game so we had to get this. It did not disappoint. The graphics are beautiful. The gameplay is so much fun. The worlds are fantastic. Soundtrack is so catchy. The controls are spot on. Love all the cameos and you know. Got to love. Love Sony on this one. Great job!

    An absolute delight to play. We need more games that focus on fun and ingenuity instead of resolution and game length. Astro Bot delivers and then some. A beautiful game with clever level designs, varied gameplay, and a sense of joy throughout. I rarely write a review for anything, but as a lifelong gamer, I want to support this game and developer (Team ASOBI) any way I can.

    I wasn't really sure if I needed a full Astro Bot game, or maybe not right at release day. But I ended up getting this and I'm glad I did. I just played about 4 hours straight which is extremely rare for me these days, I seem to be losing interest in gaming and then the games I do try usually don't keep my interest. They did a great job with this. I am tired of the super difficult trend in gaming, this is a great game to relax with. Still some challenge finding everything to 100% the levels, and I am starting to encounter some mini/secret levels that take a handful of tries, but it is fun the entire time. The music is incredible. The different worlds and themes so far have been great. My expectations for this were totally too low. Can't wait to play more.

    Absolutely magical experience that harkens back to the couple of decades of genre-defining IP native to the PlayStation brand and back catalog. Without a doubt, the best 3D platformer released in the past decade!
