Jeff Grubb is a trusted insider and his reputation precedes him.

The gaming community can form their opinions without having to watch or listen to someone else but Grubb doesn’t take initial reactions like this lightly. Perhaps his comments were slightly exaggerated as he was caught in the heat of his play time but the community already anticipated it being a great entry.
Team Asobi Could Bring Home the Bacon With Astro Bot
Team Asobi could have played it safe in previous years and went all out with this year’s upcoming game. All those years of experience are being put to good use and it could help the studio bag the title of Game of the Year from Geoff Keighley’s The Game Awards.

It is always exciting to see how industry insiders justify their claims and how these opinions will impact the gaming community. It is evident that there is an audience for this type of game and the studio could continue to develop more especially if this game wins a prestigious award.
There are a handful of decent triple-A video games that were released this year which could make things harder for Team Asobi. Perhaps the developers anticipated the fierce competition and planned for a much safer release window later this year.
The innocent and family-friendly nature of this franchise is worthy to be recognized as a potential contender for Game of the Year and the gaming community is ready to be blown away with what Team Asobi has cooked up.
