The star of a PlayStation VR minigame and the PS5 pack-in has finally got his own full-length, non-VR adventure (although Rescue Mission is well worth playing). It\u2019s one of the best platformers on Sony\u2019s newest console.

It&#8217;s been one of the most popular PS5 game deals for Black Friday so far.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The 2024 adventure sees Astro\u2019s ship torn asunder by a nefarious alien, and he needs to work across multiple galaxies to bring all the pieces back together and recruit his pals.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">What could have become a hollow, soulless brand fiesta of navigating worlds and finding cute Bot versions of iconic PlayStation (and third-party) characters feels like the best celebration of the medium since Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, as you navigate through worlds inspired by the likes of God of War, Ape Escape, Uncharted, and more.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><u>As reviewer Simon Cardy said<\/u>, \u201cA fantastically inventive platformer in its own right, Astro Bot is particularly special for anyone with a place in their heart for PlayStation.\u201d He awarded it a 9 out of 10. It also got last year&#8217;s Game Awards Game of the Year award.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">While the game is accessible for just about anyone whether they\u2019re a platforming expert or relative novice, developer Asobi Team has added additional time trial modes for free since launch that are particularly challenging \u2013 but add even more gaming icons as their reward.<\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">The Astro Bot DualSense Controller is also on sale<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div catalogid=\"becda8dc-8939-4522-9eb1-2e764e82a01f\" id=\"231316\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\">\n<div data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\">\n<div id=\"231316\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"DualSense Controller (Astro Bot Joyful Limited Edition)\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/11\/22\/astro-joyful-edition-ds-forward-angle-hero-1-1763833145156.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/11\/22\/astro-joyful-edition-ds-forward-angle-hero-1-1763833145156.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/11\/22\/astro-joyful-edition-ds-forward-angle-hero-1-1763833145156.jpg?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">PlayStation DualSense Controller (Astro Bot Joyful Limited Edition)<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>0<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">If you&#8217;re hoping to play Astro Bot the way it was truly meant to be played, you can also pick up the limited-edition Astro Bot Dualsense controller at a discount too.
