Astro Bot Continues Looking Promising in Extensive New Gameplay Footage

Astro Bot was one of several games that Sony brought with it to the ChinaJoy 2024 event over the weekend, which means we’ve got a hefty amount of new gameplay footage for the upcoming paltformer to dive into. 

A lot of this footage has, as you would imagine, found its way online, showcasing what seems to be an early level in the game. It’s got all the standard platforming and combat that you would expect from the game, in addition to some unique interactions, mechanics, and set pieces, like controlling Astro’s DualSense-shaped spaceship, sliding down a large water slide, turning into a balloon to climb up a tower, and more. Check out the video below, courtesy of YouTube channel PlayStation Planet. 

Astro Bot is set to launch on September 6 for PS5, and will retail for $60. As per developer Team Asobi, it will be roughly 12-15 hours long, while free post-launch DLC is also planned.
