Astro Bot is a 2024 platform game developed by Team Asobi and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 5 to coincide with PlayStation's 30th anniversary.
Astro Bot is a 3D platformer where the player controls the title character, a small robot named Astro Bot, through the use of the DualSense controller.
Astro's core move set is identical to previous entries, maintaining his ability to jump, hover, punch, and spin-attack, as well as being additionally granted the ability to ledge grab. The ability to swim underwater also returns from Astro Bot Rescue Mission, having been absent in Astro's Playroom.
Education:
Kids love games. And if Astro Bot is a familiar game, Christmas is the best time to play games at home.
From sandy beaches to lush jungles and piping-hot volcanoes, explore a myriad of memorable planets in search of Astro’s lost crew!
Astro Bot is pure joy. It's like fragment of childhood sealed away and suddenly uncorked. It's like jumping into a ball pit as a grown-arse adult. It's magic.
