On 6 September, one of the most anticipated releases of the autumn took place - the PlayStation 5 exclusive Astro Bot, which also became the most highly rated game of 2024. Journalist Jason Schreier spoke with Nicolas Doucet, director of Astro Bot, and in this article, we have selected the most important things from the conversation.
Over its 30-year history, PlayStation has given us a large number of game franchises. Some of them have appeared relatively recently, like Horizon, and have already gained a large audience, and there are many more games to come. God of War, for example, has been around since 2005, and the series has even gone through a relaunch, and it has done it good. The Last of Us celebrated its first anniversary last year and still has big plans ahead (let's just mention that the game already has a TV series). However, recently, it has not always been a beautiful story. At the end of August 2024, the online shooter Concord was released, and on 6 September, its servers were closed due to the lack of interest among players. The game took at least 4 years and $100 million to develop, and it lasted only a couple of weeks. But at the same time, there are franchises that Sony has abandoned (or forgotten) for various reasons and we haven't heard about them for years, although the same 100 million could have been spent on reviving what players loved so much in their time. The gg editorial team decided to recall 7 forgotten PlayStation franchises that players would love to return to.
A small number of customers will be refunded
The console will cost at least $600
In general, Team Asobi managed to create a high-quality 3D platformer where you constantly say to yourself: "I'm going to finish one more level and go to sleep," but you can't stop.
We wrote that PlayStation is celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2024. The company has even already shown a themed poster featuring the PS5 Pro logo, but it also reveals how such a big date will be celebrated.
It coincides with the insider's drawing.
The game beat out even Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
The game has become one of the most highly regarded PlayStation exclusives of all time
Astro Bot is one of the best gaming experiences I've had in 2024. There were a lot of expectations for the game even before its release, so the gg editorial team couldn't pass it up and decided to go on a galactic journey. Team Asobi has managed to create a high-quality 3D platformer where you constantly say to yourself: "I'm going to finish one more level and go to sleep", and then you look at the clock and an hour has passed. 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. And probably no game has ever used all the features of this gamepad as much as Astro Bot, so it was simply impossible not to fall in love with this game.
There will probably be an official unveiling of the console in September
Get in on some great games before the 17th of September
