The reviews for Astro Bot are so positive that it has officially become the second highest-rated game release of 2024 so far.
Hogwarts Legacy has remained in first place on the UK retail charts, according to GfK data for the week ending April 19, 2025.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, following the release of the PS5 version, came in second place.
Astro Bot dropped one spot to third place, while Monster Hunter Wilds remained in fourth place. Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate is up one spot to fifth place and EA Sports FC 25 is up six spots to sixth place.
Playstation owners buy games.
Strange seeing Hogwarts there as I downloaded it for my son from PS Plus a couple of days ago.
2nd on the charts for a game such as Indy ain’t great.
Releasing half year after xbox version probably cooled off some demand.
This is a very good game, deserves the best chance to do well.
The real great performer here is Astrobot. keeping that rate of sales for a last year's game that is not GTAV, CoD and FIFA (now Hogwarts too). outselling MH Wilds and EA FC is kinda wild for Astrobot!
Hogwart's, Indiana, Astro Bot & Monster Hunter - that's a pretty nice top 4 once again.
I bet MachineGames are quite happy about the sales pouring in.
Some of the best PS5 games are exclusives like God of War Ragnarok and Astro Bot, but there are some indie highlights as well.
Astro Bot fans have all heard the story of the creation of the sponge power-up, but did you know developer Team Asobi also prototyped even wackier powers, like a coffee grinder and a roulette wheel?
There are currently 323 bots in the game, so there need to be 1 or 2 more to balance things out. Ending things at that odd number doesn't sit well with me.
1st actually... Erdtree is an expansion.
Also finding it strange, Wukong is so low in the list ... guess 'some' reviewers didn't want the game to settle at a higher average rating.
As it should be. Im glad to see good positive news and Astro Bot is leading the charge in this scenario.
GOTY it deserves imo. Show themed devs we want games to be fun again. Not grindy systems, or a crazy deep native story that tries too hard but a fun game.
Easy to do when you got the entire gaming media gobbling ya nuts
