On 6 September, Astro Bot adventure was released: it is currently the most highly rated game in 2024

On 6 September, one of the most anticipated releases of autumn took place - the PlayStation 5 exclusive Astro Bot. So what can players expect from the game?

Here's What We Know

To begin with, Sony's platformer Astro Bot became the most highly rated game of 2024 on Metacritic. Thus, the adventure about a cute robot overtook such hits as Balatro (91), Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (90), Hades II (90), and Black Myth: WuKong (82).

In the story, the PS5 spaceship crashed, and the crew of bots was scattered across the galaxies. So Astro must fly his dual speeder across dozens of planets full of adventures, dangers, and surprises to rescue his friends, restore the ship, and defeat all the villains who decided they could hurt the seemingly defenceless bots and take their ship. However, anyone who thinks so will be very upset in the future for having decided to cross the road of such cute cans.

In general, Team Asobi managed to create a high-quality 3D platformer where you constantly say to yourself: "I'm just going to go through one more level and go to sleep," but you can't stop. Several galaxies, dozens of planets with unique levels, mechanics, gadgets, and of course, a lot of characters from PlayStation games that will make both people who have been playing since the PlayStation 2 era and those who entered the world of gaming just a few years ago smile. And all this is complemented by the use of all possible DualSense features, such as haptic feedback and adaptive triggers.
