Well, the time has finally arrived. Astro Bot is out now on PS5, following months of hype and, just this week, a tidal wave of ridiculously high-scoring reviews. As of writing this article, the PlayStation Studios exclusive is the highest rated game of 2024 so far, sitting incredibly pretty at a jaw-dropping 94 on Metacritic. It's been worth the wait, it seems.
"Astro Bot is a stunning 3D platformer, and easily among the best games in PS5's library," we exclaimed in our full Astro Bot PS5 review. We continued: "With tons to see and do, almost endless fresh ideas, innovative use of the DualSense's features, and truly charming presentation, it's a confident and cohesive experience that players of all ages will love".
"It's a perfect game to celebrate PlayStation's 30th anniversary, reflecting on the myriad series that made the platform what it is today," we concluded. What more could you possibly want? It's an unspeakably rare Push Square 10/10, by the way.
