I'd love for it to be a VR2 title, or at least be playable with VR2 like how some games offer hybrid modes.

Babadook727d ago

Yes.

I think it’s going to be VR and of course it’s going to be phenomenal in VR. Perhaps it will be flat screen also.

Cacabunga27d ago

Didn’t they close Japan studio??

Abear2127d ago

Yup, it should be available on both or just have a smaller VR level or two. If the whole game is playable in VR, now we are entering a new era, would love to see this and more of it.

Babadook727d ago (Edited 27d ago )

@Caca

They expanded Asobi who made Astrobot but they closed the rest of Japan Studio.

Baba

I didn’t know that.. thanks for this! Asobi is a brilliant studio!

Honestly, the one that was free with the PS5 was like one of the best platforming experiences I've had in a long time. I wouldn't mind seeing another one

P_Bomb28d ago

Got both Astro games for free, enjoyed them thoroughly. I’d be down for a purchase.

Please be a full fledged PS5 game!

It sounds like that's what we can expect. I'm hoping for something more akin to Super Mario Odyssey, but we'll have to wait and see!

purple10127d ago

is your name from ghost of tushima? jin Sakai, ?? what name did you give your horse, mines called 'Sora'

Jin_Sakai27d ago (Edited 27d ago )

Yes it is. I honestly can’t remember. I think it was Sora or Kage.

You can tell the passion and love that has beem poured into this game and i cant wait to get my hands on it.

See Sony? Did you have to spend an entire Gen for 1 game that costs $300,000,000?

No. Exactly.

roadkillers1h ago

If you bring money into the equation, you'll want to see the sales first. I mean, Helldivers 2 is their fastest selling game ever and that was 8 years. Spiderman is their best selling game and took 4 years, followed by God of War with 5 years, and so forth.

I'm sure this game will rock, but the cost and devlopment time is a different topic. That should include sales which we have no data on yet.

With "E3 Season" Now Over, Here Are Some Of The Best Games To Look Forward To

Following the major video game showcase reveals over the last weeks, games like Astro Bot and Doom: The Dark Ages are highly sought-after.

Profchaos1d 10h ago

I went from being unexcited about anything that wasn't GTA vi to having a fully stocked end of the year especially after that direct

LostPotato4h ago

It's not over yet still have the THQ showcase and Games-Com this summer,

TwoPicklesGood4h ago

Xbox has a ton of games lined up. I was hoping more would be coming to PS5 but I think I’m going to finally subscribe to PC Game Pass since no matter what, it will still be a better deal. If MS makes a handheld, I’ll buy a console, if not I’ll play on PC.

You could buy a steamdeck if you actually have a pc library. And If you don't have a steam account I feel sorry for u when you claim to own a gaming pc

These are the kind of games I like. Can’t wait!

Hofstaderman5d ago

Can't wait. Can never bring myself to delete the first one off my ssd even when I need space, its that good.

purple1015d ago

I deleted it, - but re downloaded it and got another 4 jigsaw pieces yesterday!! all this news of astro made me want more. can confirm I sighed and smiled multiple times, which is more than I can say for the usual games I play (cod & GT7, which do invoke a little bit of edge of the seat excitement, but not as fun as astro)

isarai5d ago

Im excited to buy this, just a simple fun platformer. Japan/Asobi is such an underutilized team, i hope this changes that cause they've honestly produced some of the funnest platformers outside the Mario series imo. I still replay puppeteer from time to time

jznrpg5d ago

I was thinking about Astro Bot and games they made sort of like it in the past and it reminded me of Puppeteer.

It came out at the very end of the PS3 generation so it didn’t get much attention as PS4 was right there. They really should remaster that game for PS5 it was a lot of fun.

The_Hooligan4d ago

Yes!! Absolutely! Puppeteer is a very underrated gem. I believe it's part of the game catalog on PS+. If anyone hasn't tried it, give it a shot.
