Astro Botis easily one of the year’s best games, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it went on to win Game of the Year.
Inour review, I awarded the game a perfect 10 out of 10, writing, “This is beyond being an entertaining platformer. It’s one of the most carefully considered and impressive games I have ever played.”
“If you’ve grown up withPlayStationalways having been a constant in your life, the journey you’re about to embark on will assuredly be the most heartwarming trip down memory lane.Astro Botis a monumental triumph that I’m not going to stop thinking about for a very, very long time.”

As suspected, at last month’s State of Play, it was confirmed thatAstro Botwould be receiving free DLC in the form of speedrunning levels and now, details have landed on exactly what it is we can expect.
Five speedrunning levels will be added to the game across the next five weeks with the first level, ’Building Speed’, dropping today at 6am PT / 2pm BST / 10pm JST.
Just make sure that your copy of the game is up to date and you should be able to dive into the level with little issue.

‘Helium Heights’ will launch on 7 November with ‘Rising Heat’ rounding us out on 14 November.
I should also mention that across the speedrunning levels, players will be able to collect 10 new VIP bots withStellar BladeandHelldivers IIamong the feature franchises.
That’s far from being all that’s in store for the game.
Over on the PlayStation blog, Team Asobi studio director Nicolas Doucetwrote, “We want to thank you again for all the love and support you have given toAstro Bot, it means the world to us. That’s all we have for today, however watch this space as there may be even more surprises coming soon.”

More levels!? Yes please.
All I ask, Team Asobi, is that you use the delightful shrinking mouse mechanic again.
