What some labeled a disappointing State of Play at the end of May 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:was rescued by Astro Bot. The rumored new game starring 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:PlayStation's modern-day mascot closed the presentation and I think it's safe to say it blew expectations out of the water. Even the most casual Astro fans have been left wishing the days away between now and September 6 when 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Astro Bot releases exclusively on PS5 and good news everyone, the wait is almost over. There's still a few days left to place your pre-order if you haven't done so already, though.

There are three editions of Astro Bot to choose from - standard, digital standard, and digital deluxe. The standard edition will cost $60 which might feel like a lot for a platformer of this description. Previews of Astro Bot make it sound like it will be worth every penny, though. Confirmed to be four times the size of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Astro's Playroom, Astro will run, jump, glide, and hover through 80 levels and meet Bot versions of more than 150 characters throughout PlayStation's history.

I Can’t Buy A PS5 Just For 🅰Astro Bot. Unless…

Why is Astro Bot, of all🌠 games, the Sony exclusive that's most tempting me to buy a PS5?

Speaking of those characters, if you pre-order Astro Bot you will get the PaRappa in-game outfit that everyone quite rightly lost their minds over when it was shown during the debut trailer. That's right, while you might not be able to be Bot versions of everyone, there will be certain characters Astro can dress up as while on his adventure, and PaRappa will be one of them provided you pre-order the game. The physical version of Astro Bot also comes with a double-sided poster.

The digital standard edition is effectively the same as the physical one, minus the physical copy of the game. You also won't be getting that snazzy Astro PS5 poster since that's a physical release-only bonus. You will still be able to dress Astro up as PaRappa though, and you'll have the option to give your Dual Speeder, the DualSense Astro flies around on, a street art-inspired makeover. The same PS5 avatars you'll get for pre-ordering the game are also included with the standard digital edition.

The digital standard edition of Astro Bot is the same as the standard version in almost every way, except for the fact that it doesn't come with the physical game and poster you🍬 get for pre-ordering the physical version.

The digital deluxe edition is where the slew of added extras come into play, and it's also where PlayStation potentially upsets fans of a very different PlayStation exclusive. As well as the PaRappa in-game outfit, the digital deluxe edition also includes Golden and Yharnam Hunter outfits. Yes, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a Bloodborne Bot will not only be in 💝Astro B🎐ot, but you will be able to play as it. Including a Yharnam Hunter Bot in the game at all was always going to be something that wound up 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Bloodborne fans desperate for a sequel or a remaster. Making the character playable, and locking it behind the digital deluxe edition, that's just pure evil.

The extra money you pay for the digital deluxe edition will also get you two more color schemes for your Dual Speeder, 12 PS5 avatars, and digital versions of Astro Bot's art gallery and soundtrack. I'm not usually tempted by anything more than the standard edition, but this one has its hooks in me, if for no other reason than to take and share a tonne of screenshots of the Yharnam Hunter outfit.

Astro Bot will be released on September 6, 2024, exclusively for PS5. There's no indication for now whether it will eventually be ported to PC like most of PlayStation's other exclusives. It almost feels a little strange to imagine this game being playable on any other platform since it will be something that celebrates PlayStation's history, but you never know. It's also a welcome step away from almost everything else PlayStation does, and if it's half as good as it looks, it could mark the beginning of a new era for PlayStation during which Astro Bot is one of its pillars.

FAQ

What Time Will Astro Bot Be Released?

Astro Bot will be released at midnight EST on Friday Seꦿptember 6, 2024, in all regions. No staggered release for different timezones and no early access. We will all be embarking on our Astro Bot adventures at the same tim🧸e.

Do All PS5s Have Astro's Playroom?

Yes, in the same way that every 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Nintendo Wii included a copy of Wii Sports, every PS5 includes a copy of Astro's Playroom. Unlike Wii Sports, Astro's Playroom is already installed on the console. If you haven't played it already, definitely give it a go before Astro Bot arrives in September.

Is Astro's Playroom Multiplayer?

No, Astro's Playroom is not multiplayer, and it doesn't seem like Astro Bot will be either. However, there is a competitive element in Astro's Playroom as there are time trial levels with friend and global leaderboards, something that appears to be returning in Astro Bot.
