Forums - Sony Discussion - Astrobot receives "universal acclaim" on Metacritic, 94

Tagged games:

Review embargo has been lifted and they're finally pouring in. After 98 reviews Astro Bot currently sits at a score of 94. I'm so happy that this has been received so well and truly hope that we will see more games of this kind from Sony in the future. Regardless of what the reviews said I was going to be picking this one up. I'm confident this will be my personal GOTY.

I hope this will encourage Sony to embrace a lot more smaller titles, and not just massive AAA blockbusters. Bring back motorstorm, wipeout, modnation racers, sly cooper!

Wow, well done to Team Asobi!



Currently the 4th highest rated 3d platformer ever. The only ones rated higher on metacritic are Super Mario Odyssey & Galaxy 1/2. Very impressive for a game that doesn't have the legacy and brand strength of Mario.

This game deserves all this and more, you can see that they created this game with passion, aiming only at video games and fun, it reminds a little of the times of ps1 and ps2.



Damn. Any chance for a PC release? Damn good scores. Seems like a must play.

Well done Team Asobi. The spirit of Japan Studio lives on!

I was just checking to see if reviews came in a few hours ago and they hadn't yet. Got my special edition controller coming in the mail. Will buy the game digitally sometime in the future.

"Team Asobi studio director Nicolas Doucet noted in a recently uploaded interview with media outlet MinnMax that the developer would love to hear from PC players who are eager to play Astro Bot someday."

It may come eventually.

Fingers crossed.  Looks like a great game.  I hope it sells well.  Sony might have another good franchise.  



This is no joke the only game that would make me uncover my PS5 (it has been covered with a towel for over 8 months now).

I hope it gets a PC release eventually. Would play it on the Deck.
