Astro Bot 5 new levels later this month, DualSense coming back later this year "with a slight twist"

Got top 50 WW times on the last 5 and even a top 10 time for a day but I'll be chilling on these next 5. My days of grinding are over.
 
Astro Bot is the gift that keeps on giving! I'm definitely grabbing that controller.
 
I was hoping full on new level complete with new boss fight, I actually wouldn't mind paying for that.

That astrobot controller is by far the nicest controller I've ever had. Can't recommend it enough. It has a high resale value too.
 
I'd pay good money for a proper expansion, but I'll take free levels. Wonderful game.

Would like to see them move on to something else after they are done supporting Astro.

It's a great platformer. If you even remotely like the genre it's a "can't miss" game.

It's an S tier platformer that's been bogged down with nostalgia via some robots that look out of place.
Astro Bot's good enough at what it does to exist without all of the throwbacks and PlayStation can't afford to be sentimental as an angry young brand.

PlayStation needs to keep new IP separate from existing IP and sell the hundreds of millions of people interested in PS1 and PS2 new DualSense PS2s with PSN.
They can sell everyone DualSense enhanced PS1 and PS2 games instead of packing PS1 and PS2 IP into x86 PS games.

I feel that this will be the end of Astro Bot 2024, Team Asobi has totally delivered.

Normally I'd be sad and ask for more DLC, but if it means they're hard at work creating something new, I say go for it. They're only around 2.5 million sales, which is criminally low for a game so excellent.
 
At first, when I saw there trailer today at SOP, I got nervous that they might add some woke twisted gender ideology updates and that pride and trans flag and colors crap to this game, since its June were pride crap is being force to our throats. Good thing it never happen. I like this game I dont want that to happen. They are good people in team asobi and very based. Good job Team Asobi may you have more blessings to come. 👍

My guess is the 'other' features of the DS that didn't get used. It's been a while since I played but I don't remember the touch screen or the mic or the motion controls being mandatory in the game. Could be ported to PC with no need for Dual Sense as a requirement.
 
If that damn controller touchpad display is interactive with the game I demand that it becomes the standard & be supported by other games 😳
 
Kojima also loves the Astrobot dual sense. I will try to get one of this, its available and if i have extra funds.

Cdkeys has astro digital code for 35 bucks. I never got to it. Now that it's been out a while .. worth it?

I don't get into these types of younger audience games.. But seriously, this is one of the funnest platformers you'll ever play. It is worth it.

It was probably the only PS5 game that has made the console worth it if you own a capable PC. My kids love it so much. I like it too. But FFS stop with the DLC and get the sequel out ASAP
 
Great developers. I miss the days when studios would release free content for their games. If you haven't played this one yet and have even a slight passing interest in 3D platformers then go and grab it, it's a great time!
 
I have to commend Nicolas and the team for the continued support they're giving the game. Maybe we'll see a complete edition at some latter point packed with all the content they've been adding.
 
If you notice the eyes on the touchpad are happy whereas the previous controller had them open. If that's the only "twist" they're hinting at then I'll be "slightly" disappointed.

But, like everyone is saying, if those eyes are interactive then it's a day one for me too. I missed out on the first one, so hopefully I can grab one this time.
