As you can see, Astro Bot won the best games, best animation, best family games and best game design. If you’re playing Team Asobi games, you won’t be surprised to see the title win these categories.
The success of Astro Bot was monumental to Sony. Because the company’s CEO has publicly said it wanted a family-friendly game that will move forward.
Not only that, but this weekend, the PlayStation Productions boss publicly said they were “absolutely” “pushing to make an Astorobot movie.” This makes a lot of sense.
If you haven’t tried the game yet, we recommend that you fix it as soon as possible. It is one of Open Critic’s top games, with a “strong” rating, an astounding 95, averaged from over 170 reviews.
