    This is the best game I played for years. Its just so damn fun.
    Ended up playing this more then red dead redemption 2 now under the holidays. You feel like a kid playing mario 64 for the first time again.

    One of the best if not the best games of VR, fun and somewhat challenging. As for most of the games of its genre, it lacks of a solid story, it is fun anyway and becomes more challenging as you move forward but not as challenging as it should be, that gets solved by the challengues you unlock allong the way so it is suitable for everyone.

    This game is magical, I would say this is now the best psvr game. Even if you don't normally like platform style games this title is so creative it will win you over.

    Gameplay: Un plataforma a la vieja escuela combinado con las VR que son muy necesarias a la hora de buscar a tus compañeros perdidos y coleccionables, todo está bien cuidado, utilizarás el DualShock 4 como nunca antes en otros títulos. Las VR también juegan un papel importante a la hora de jugar. Todo lo que haces en este título es sumamente divertido.
    Gráficos: Un estilo caricaturesco muy bien logrado, recuerda a la animación de WALL-E de Disney, todo está perfectamente bien animado y luce maravilloso, cada nivel te hará sentir cómo si estuvieras allí.
    Duración: El título es relativamente corto, con cinco mundos disponibles para explorar, el juego te invita a acabarlo buscando a toda la tripulación perdida, aunque siendo honestos yo lo sigo jugando aunque ya lo haya acabado al 100% ya que todo es sumamente divertido.

    Astro Bot Rescue Mission es el juego que debes tener si o si, no por nada se llevó varios premios al mejor juego VR 2018.    … Expand

Maybe there is a short interlude at the beginning, but as befits most of the platformers, this is just an excuse, which is not particularly important in this case. The game shines for this in terms of binding. Maybe the backgrounds of most levels are practically one color, but the levels themselves have a lot of details, are stylistically and coloristically different, and the animations of both robots and enemies are at the highest level. Because fighting with huge bosses makes an impression as big as the bosses themselves, because in comparison to our protagonist, they are really great. It is a pity that music, despite the fact that it fits quite well, repeats in many levels. Astro Bot is the forerunner of Sony goggles. With its pampered presentation, the honey gameplay, or enough for about 8h campaign (and you can even extend it by doing much more difficult challenges), Astro Bot can not be omitted by any PSVR holder, if you are not allergic to platformers.

    Binding
    Ingenuity

    Fighting with bosses

    Losing DualShock tracking

    Anyway this isn't just that the level design is astoundinggg and that because of the vr and that 3d depth It uses every single mechanic you can think of and it looks just beautiful while at it. Think Pixar level graphics in 3d but jooollllllllly jooollllly good fun while moderately challenging too. There's level designs that'll take you back to sonic underwater levels but like 50 gazillllllin times better and then a little awesome karting bit too that took me back to megaman x5. It's just incredible the level design I thought I saw it all in the first 3 levels but holy **** did it just keep getting better and better.

    Honestly Astrobot is one of those times you just stand up and salute the creators. Just phenomenal on every level. I played each level on repeat 4 times already. Even after the Plat I want more.

    Exceptional!

    There are many good games now that make PSVR worth the investment, but this game by itself makes it worth the purchase. It's a true system seller and more than worthy of all the good reviews it's gotten.

    For those of you old enough to remember the feelings of pure fun and joy you had the first time you played Mario 64 in the 90's, be prepared to have those feelings again!

    If you own a PSVR and dont have this game, buy it now or at least try the demo! There is a free demo available on PSN that let's you play the first 2 levels of world 1 and part of the Boss fight. These levels are fun, but the full game only gets better and more creative!

    If you are on the fence, but interested in VR, now is the time. This is a game for people that love games and will convert all that try it into believers of 3rd person platformers in VR!

    You are in for a treat as this is the best display of VR on PSVR and the best platformer on any headset at the moment.    … Expand

Move forward 8 years, put on a PSV helmet and launch Astro Bot. Just wow. A game that justifies VR on its own. One of the best games I have ever played. And just like Super Mario Galaxy (where Astro Bot gets a lot of inspiration), it's all about the gameplay. The fun. The joy.

    An absolute joy to play. I went in skeptical, as I don't think 3rd-person VR often works well, but I was all smiles all the way though. Polished to a mirror sheen, with some delightful little details. Perhaps a bit easy for older players, but great fun.

    It's one of the most fun games I can remember playing, and gave plenty of awe-inspiring moments by making perfect use of the new perspective, whether it is the sheer size of boss enemies feeling like they are towering over you, taking a moment to enjoy the spectacular surroundings, physically using your head to attack enemies or break obstacles, or moving yourself to peer around corners or stand up to look over walls and realising you can find hidden areas this way.

    It can be fluid and almost rhythmic in its' gameplay at times, as you control Astro over platforms and around enemies, while ducking and weaving around obstacles yourself, and it can be quite challenging late in the game. Forgiving checkpoints help with this however and ensure you don't get too frustrated with having to repeat lengthy sections of a difficult stage.

    The platforming is fun, creative and tight.
    The graphics are clean and crisp! Surprisingly good for what I have come to expect from VR games in general and the performance (framerate) seems like pure perfection in my eyes. I played this on a PS4Pro though so that might be different on the standard, although I heard that it is only the resolution that is lowered. Only    Brilliant game!

    Only "complaints" (small ones) would be that the controller tracking isn't perfect but it is still good enough so that it isn't a big issue in the slightest and generally, the controller tracking isn't the most used feature in the game. You mostly just use the traditional buttons on your DS4.
    Another one is that the scope/ambition of the game isn't that big and the price tag reflects that. For the price, you get more than enough. But as an overall game i would love something with greater ambition.    … Expand

    A well crafted VR game that leaves nothing at the door. It is a fun platformer that has been brought into VR. The best way to describe this game is if Mario got a VR game made by Sony. Definitely something to play if you are new to VR. Whilst the controller can be unresponsive at times the rest of the game works extremely well in a fun solo adventure.

Problem is, those games weren't great, they were just average. This rendition is greatly improved by a clever second-person view that I would love to see more of in video games. Problem is, while taking ideas away from Splatoon, they could have taken the lives system (maximum of 3, restores every checkpoint). Problem is, this game is just good. It's not GREAT. It's not enough to justify the prices of PSVR on top of what a PS4 or PS5 costs. And make sure it's at least a PS4 Pro, because this is a very advanced game that might crash on something earlier.

    Overall, this will be a fun game when many more people experience it for the first time in 2025 when it runs smoothly enough and prices of the hardware are low enough.    … Expand

    Astro Bots know how to operate controllers. When I play, I am first surprised by the cute artwork and then I am surprised by the level design using the controller.

    The best 3D platformer I've played. VR really does add to the experience and make the game the classic it should be remembered as. Worth the price of PSVR alone.

    This game is so fun to play. The soundtrack is really good. The cute robots make me really happy and finding all the things in the world of Astro Bot is really fun. It is easy though, so if you want a challenge this game won't offer one that much. It can be hard for me sometimes though. This game is so good and I recommend it to everyone who can play it.

All the ways you are affected by the world like water on your face and your screen appearing to be cracked when you, the player, get hit by something is really cool. After four levels of every world there is a boss. I always look forward to the bosses while finding all the things in the world. I did get stuck in a wall once, but it's okay.… Expand

    Semplicemente perfetto... Ho provato le stesse sensazioni di stupore, meraviglia e divertimento, di quando giocai per la prima volta a Mario 64... IMPERDIBILE

    Awesome platformer for PSVR maybe The best Platformer on VR. Got this game free with my PSVR Mega Bundle and i played it right away. It was my first PSVR game and it was AMAZING. I am not the biggest fan of platformers but I really enjoyed Astro Bot.

    Fantastic video game! Super fun as exciting and, above all, fascinating.
    Kudos to the developers for hunting this pearl in an increasingly barren market. Well done!

    I rarely put a 10, especially to a VR game. But despite the average sharpness on the PSVR1, this game shows that VR can be terrific even for plateforms, and that gameplay & level design quality is much more important than the resolution of the display or the quality of the lenses on the VR headset. Terrific game, easily one of the best VR game ever.

    Sony’s in-house studio brought us a really well made platformer. It is also the second (after Moss) mandatory buy for every owner of PS VR. [13/2018, p.79]

    Creative, VR-exclusive gameplay ideas embedded in a sugar-sweet world with pleasant mini-robots. A feast for platformer fans.

    The first board meeting held for Astro Bot Rescue Mission could have featured a single word written in all caps on a whiteboard: CHARM. It oozes through the game’s pores, but never feels like a cheap or thoughtless cash-grab; this isn’t another me-too half-baked mascot platformer fast-tracked out the door.
