The next Astro Bot game will be released on September 6 on PS5
PlayStation surprised everyone when during its State of Play event at the end of May it presented a new Astro Bot video game with its release date, the impact of this announcement being such that many have classified it as the best game of this entire non-E3 periodalthough it remains to be seen if this is reflected in its sales when the title is released next September.
In any case, it must be said that since its announcement, Team Asobi, the development studio behind this new Astro Bot, has not stopped giving interviews and statements about the project, also confirming that there are plans to launch free DLCs after the launch that will add new challenges. Now, the point has been reached with this title that even there is already talk of future deliverieswhich could have a very different approach than recently seen.
Astrp Bot may not have PlayStation cameos in future installments
In the Astro Bot trailer we have been able to see that there will be cameos from more than 150 PlayStation characters throughout the game, which also includes different elements of the company such as the fact that the aircraft seen are literally a PS5 and a Dualsense controller, which has made Astro Bot be seen as a tribute to the company's history just as it was seen back in the day with Astro's Playroom.
Now, according to Nicolas Doucet, creative and studio director, during an interview with VGC, including PlayStation cameos is not an essential requirement for future installmentswhich could lead to the fact that in future studio projects involving Astro Bot we will not see references of any kind, although, it does confirm that the inclusion of these in the next video game was decided at the beginning of development.
In this way, although it confirms that The presence of PlayStation elements is not essential in Astro Bot, this seems to be one of its main attractions, so time will tell. For the rest, remember that Astro Bot will be released for PS5 on September 6.
