If you missed it when it first launched in September, Astro Bot is a charming adventure game that mixes beautifully designed levels with fun platforming gameplay. For anyone who has owned multiple generations of gaming hardware–specifically, PlayStation consoles–Astro Bot is also effortlessly charming as it features hundreds of little bots modeled after characters from some of the best video games of all time, like Bloodborne, Legacy of Kain, and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.
“Team Asobi cements itself as an essential PlayStation studio with an imaginative platformer for the ages,” Mark Delaney wrote in GameSpot’s Astro Bot review.
