The hype forAstro Bot,Astro’s Playroom‘s sequel, really cannot be understated.
No matter what kind of game you like in terms of visuals, gameplay, or themes, theAstrogames bring everyone together, and the social media hype for the upcoming release only solidifies this. The latest reveal has everyone going crazy, and we can’t help but join in on the excitement.
Astro Bot Could Not Come Any Sooner
For the uninitiated,Astro Botis the sequel toAstro’s Playroom, a free game that came with all PS5’s.
It sort of acted like a free tech demo for the DualSense controller, as it let people get a proper feel of the device and all of its capabilities.It wouldn’t be a stretch to say it’s still one of the best games that takes full advantage of the DualSense, even four years after its release.
The newAstrois slated for release on 29 June 2025, just a few months away, and the wait has been agonizing. The previous entry was so incredibly loved and was quite impressive, especially considering how it was completely free.

With the release of the game so close, Sony’s gaming brand has been going all-out in pushing promotions forward, dropping clips that make it look as intriguing as ever.
Mainly excited to be able to see and feel the Dualsense at its full potential again.

There has been a severe lack of good platformers from big studios (not to mentionthe recent news ofCrash Bandicoot‘s cancelation), so the newAstrogame is a much-welcomed release.
People’s Expectations of the Game Cannot Be Quelled
One simply does not have mundane expectations for the nextAstrogame. Excited fans are already hoping for it to be the best game ever made.
Why do i have a feeling that this will be the best game ever made.
It can’t be helped, especially with how Team Asobi knocked it out of the park with the first game. Since it came pre-installed with consoles, many people gave it a shot when they first brought home their PS5 and became instant fans.
I wasn’t prepared for how fun the first game was. I spent my first days with my new PS5 playing that to completion.
Astro Botwill be a paid game, unlike its predecessor. But if you’re a fan of platformers orPlayroom, you definitely wouldn’t want to miss out on this one.
One of the coolest quirks about these games is how they contain so many references to IPs that come under PlayStation’s wing.
Are there any references in particular you’re excited to see the most? Let us know in the comments below!
