    Best free game after Wii Sports. Truly shows the potential of the PS5 Dualsense controller. Worth getting a PS5 just to play this game

    Amazing experience that every PS5 owners should play. I cannot remember the last time I a video game console had a free game installed. This is fitting for the themes of Astro's Playroom, a nostalgia trip of over 25 years of PlayStation and a demo for all the new features of the PS5. A free pack-in game is a new feature by today's standards.

    The gameplay in Astro's Playroom is perfect.    Amazing experience that every PS5 owners should play. I cannot remember the last time I a video game console had a free game installed. This is fitting for the themes of Astro's Playroom, a nostalgia trip of over 25 years of PlayStation and a demo for all the new features of the PS5. A free pack-in game is a new feature by today's standards.

    The gameplay in Astro's Playroom is perfect. Astrobot has a laser jump that will float him across gaps and destroy enemies. (Astrobot is a vicious little killing machine.) This makes the platforming rather forgiving, and adept players will be able circumvent obvious routes to speed through areas. Astrobot also has a punch and a charge up spinning attack that is always fun to watch. Some areas have weapons like a bow and arrow or a chain gun.

    The world is rich with activity. I truly have fun watching my family navigate this game space. The world is overflowing with little bots who get into trouble, re-enact memorable scenes from PlayStation games, and interact with Astrobot. Few platformers have this kind of attention to detail. The total effect is simply "wow".

    For people who play inverted like me, you can invert the Y or X access in the PS5's main system menu. I think this option was omitted from Astro's Playroom because Sony wants you to find that system toggle. The game has a functional quality to not only show you the advantages of the DualSense controller, but also the gameplay features. To be fair to Sony, functions such as 3D motion controls and the touch bar were already in the DualShock 4 controller. Game developers really need to start bringing their control schemes to the modern era.

    The climbing section of Astro's Playroom is the perfect example of how innovative a game can be. Astrobot climbs into a monkey robot suit (one of 3 robot suits in the game) and has to use a combination of the left and right triggers and the motion controls to climb up a mountain that is studded with handholds and hanging bars. I have never been so taxed to move in a PlayStation game and I loved it. Climbing in games vacillates between a slow moving chore and the game auto-climbing your character up walls while you hold down X. Astrobot's Playroom is the first time I have seen climbing get gamefide.

    In addition to being an utter joy to play, Astrobot is also a quick Platifnum trophy for those who care about that kind of thing. I usually have disdain for in-game collectibles though I am a completionist at heart and if the burden of collectibles is not too high, I may go for it. The collectibles in Astro's Playroom fill up a showroom of 5 generations of PlayStation gear surround by giant murals. The number of collectibles is not only management, you have a sense of something to show for your effort.

    All-in-all, Astro's Playroom is a must play. When you buy a PS5, you may be excited to get into one of the many AAA games for PS5. Wait on those. Soak in all the goodness of Astro's Playroom first.    … Expand

    Astro's Playroom Review: 9.5/10
    I'm giving it almost a 10 for being free and very fun! Glad it comes with the PS5 and showcases beautifully the features and capabilities of the DualSense! I know why the game isn't as long as I would've wanted but it's understandable. If you get a PS5 play it!

    Astro has become Playstation's de facto mascot recently, also thanks to the PS VR game Astro Bot: Rescue Mission. Not bad for something that debuted on PS4's Playroom app and was intended to be nothing more than a throwaway tech demo. I hope they make a full game in the future.    … Expand

    I now understand why everyone that tried this out prior to the PS5 launch said that it can't be explained, you have to experience it.
    How they showcased everything on what the DualSense can do, it's just amazing.
    The game it self is fun, nice looking platformer and I hope to see more of Astro in the future.

    JUGABILIDAD:
    Los que tengan duda respecto a si Astro es un juego o un “tech demo” no tienen de que preocuparse. No solo es un juego a toda regla, sino que está claro que Astro llegó para quedarse.

    La integración con el DualSense es, obviamente, lo más destacable. Y no es para menos, Astro es capaz de mostrar cada feature del control de una forma perfectamente integrada al juego: Cosas como el efecto de las gotas de lluvia en el DualSense, acompañado del sonido que emana de la bocina del propio control es una experiencia que nunca había experimentado. Es única.

    Y así pueden mencionarse otros muchos ejemplos, pero Astro es una experiencia que debe vivirse de primera mano.

    Eso sí, es un juego mas bien corto. Aunque intenso es jugabilidad.

    GRÁFICOS:
    Bonita gama de colores, y buen diseño visual que es agradable pero no destaca por ser precisamente asombroso como sí que lo han tenido otro tipo de plataformers (Rayman Legends o Tearaway)

    Hay detalles bonitos, como que las gotas de lluvia formen los símbolos clásicos de la franquicia, que es algo que no puede dejar de mencionarse. Pero en general es un juego que no destaca por su apartado artístico.

    SONIDO:
    Tanto el soundtrack que emana del televisor, como los efectos de sonido que lo hacen del DualSense son dignos de un plataformer de culto. Piezas bien hechas, adictivas, apropiadas y divertidas.

    Y, aunque la música es buena, lo maravilloso son los efectos de sonido de cada nivel.

    INNOVACIÓN:
    Los guiños a juegos clásicos de Playstation son un homenaje que se agradece. Sony de verdad que ha lanzado uno de los mejores plataformers de los últimos años, y es un juego que se disfrutará especialmente por quienes hemos experimentado las consolas Sony desde sus inicios.    … Expand

    This game is a true masterpiece, and a tribute for those who are long fans of Playstation. The Easter Eggs, the attention to detail, the game design, the haptic feedback, the art direction, along with soundtracks are things that makes this one of the best games I have ever played. It made me feel like a child again, back when games had another concept.

    Astro’s Playroom is a Nintendo-esque demonstration of the insane levels of immersion and nuance that PS5 brings to the table and is just as much fun to play (if not more!) as anything with Mario in the title in years.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I thought Astro's Playroom was meant to be a little tech demo, but it's a solid platformer with tons to do.

    There are 4 worlds, 4 levels in each world, and a pretty hardcore final boss you have to find.
    It's a strong platformer with multiple levels of different game mechanics to keep things different.
    Thers a ton to explore and find, and the platforming is fun.

    I honestly wasn't expecting so much but I've been playing the game since I got my PS4 at lunchtime and it took hours to beat, trying to get all the coins, artifacts and puzzle pieces. I thought I finished everything there was until I explored the homeworld trying to find the source of the roaring, the final boss was was badass, it took me a few tries but I feel very accomplished in beating the game. The credits were very clever, and the one more thing was great. I also found the little vending machine and bought as many of the artifacts and puzzle pieces I could.

    I don't think I've ever felt so pleased with a tech demo/game that came with the console before.

    It’s a nice throwback of PlayStation’s legacy. I personally feel if you replaced the bot and changed it to Mario it could easily be the next big hit from Nintendo. It somehow has that Nintendo like charm. I’m looking forward to see what they do next.    … Expand

The charm is cranked up to eleven as not only is this a great pack in game and a excellently designed platformer it also is a celebration of Playstation history. There are references to playstation everywhere including bot cameos of many famous characters that captivated my attention every time one showed up. The collectibles of the game are old PS consoles and accessories that also brought a smile. If you have any history with playstation there is something in here for you. While the platforming is as excellent as ever there are 4 gimmick game styles that highlight the features of the dual sense. most of these are fun to control and freshens up the gameplay. One of them is a monkey that uses the triggers in a cool innovative way however it is incredibly boring and repetitive for it's brief appearance. The only other negative is how short the game is. 4 levels with 4 subsections along with a boss fight and speedrun levels make up the entire game and it can be completed in 4-5 hours. However when your biggest complaint is that it ends to soon, then you have done something right.… Expand

    The game itself isn’t mind blowing, it has its moments, but leaves you right when it starts to feel a bit stale, to go have fun with your new machine, and dream of what could be in all of your favorite games…
    But maybe playing sackboys big adventure on the ps5 first softened the blow tha everyone else experienced as Astros Playroom more so feels like an introduction to that 3d platformer.
    That being said, theres room for 2 on your ps5, and with astros playroom already being there, tis worth picking up and giving a go to!

No in-game purchase, already pre-installed on every PS5. You're gonna have a good time with this cool game. I can't wait for the third Astro adventure, which will probably be exclusive to the next generation of PlayStation VR headset.

    There are 4 main worlds to play through, each based on the PS5's internal components. They're each visually interesting and diverse, with excellent attention to detail. The worlds are filled with other bots, many of which act out references to other PlayStation games which is really nice and fun to see. The platforming gameplay is simple and easy to pick up, but there's a lot of variety packed in. Each world has its own vehicle of sorts, each of which is piloted in its own gimmicky but fun and unique way.

    The collectibles are each a piece of PlayStation history that fill the PlayStation Labo room. Getting everything feels worthwhile and the Labo room is a cool celebration and display of every PlayStation generation.

    It’s a very short platformer that takes only 2 hours to beat, unless you revisit missions for all the collectibles. Every level takes you to a different generation of PlayStation and introduces different peripherals such as controllers, memory cards etc. Every level focuses on different aspects of the DualSense. It’s hard to describe it, but having played Astro’s Playroom, I can easily call this a game changer and good use of DualSense will be a factor (in addition to graphics and frame rates) when deciding the superior versions of video games.

    It is much more than a tech demo and you should definitely not ignore it because it’s a free game. Astro’s Playroom is Sony’s way of telling gamers “Look we have a revolutionary gaming technology. It’s now up to developers to make good use of it”.

Pero pronto, descubrió un nicho en la industria con juegos orientados a un público más adoslecente y madura, aprovechando el vacío de poder que dejo SEGA en la industria. Comprar una consola de Sony en la actualidad no es muy recomendado para niños pequeños, a excepción de que este sólo quiera jugar Fortnite y Minecraft. Parece ilógico obserquiarle un PS5 a un niño para que pruebe Demon Souls o Returnal; los juegos maduros y cinemáticos apuntan a otro público, eso creo que todos lo tenemos claro. Pero, Astros es el argumentos para obsequiarle una PS5 a un chico que recién se adentre en el mundo de los videojuegos. De hecho, Zack Boy y Ratched a Clank complementan un combo que nada tiene que envidiarle a una Nintendo Switch con Mario, Zelda, Pokémon y Splatoon. Es la manera perfecta de adentrar, no sólo a niños, sino a un poúblico general en la nueva generación de consolas. Muestra de forma lúdica las bondades del dual senses, pero adolece en un punto clave: mantiene un escaso contenido, que plantea escasos incentivos a su rejugabilidad. Sony saber hacer juegos de plataforma, y Mario tiene competencia en un contexto donde parecía que era el absoluto rey. Esperemos que a futuro Sony se plantee explotar dicho potencial.
    Entonces, ¿Merece Astro’s Playroom una oportunidad? La respuesta es obvio que sí, de hecho lo he elogiado durante toda esta reseña. Su diseño artístico es precioso, sus maecánicas jugables sin intuitivas y sencillas de aprender, pero muy bien implementadas, tiene momentos muy divertidos utilizando las grandes particularidades del nuevo control de Playstation. Sin embargo, Astros no llega más lejos en la lista por presentar un contenido que deja con gusto a poco, como si de una expansión se tratase. Acá no evaluamos el contenido por su precio, de hecho el juego viene instalado de forma gratuita por lo cuál nadie fue estafado, pero se siente como un potencial desaprovechado que podría haber llegado a competir de tú a tú con las sensaciones que nos dejó Mario Oddysey el 2017.    … Expand

    A must play for all PS5 owners, as it comes preinstalled with the console. With 3-4h of duration, this is a joy to play. There are many easter eggs and references that draw a smile on my face, and the gameplay varies all the time as well, using the different features of the controller. Outstanding game to kick off the generation.

    This is simply a playstaion fanboys dream showcase. The best showcase possible with insane dualsense and adaptive triggers implementation. I would rank this 10/10, but it's simply too short and also it does lack depth, but that is expected for a free showcase game.

    The game is quite short with around 4-5hrs and gets a bit repetitive over time but for being free and created with much love it is a perfect entry point for the new generation. It showcases the year long effort from Sony put into the whole Playstation franchise and also shows how incredibly potent the new Dual Sense controller is.

    I consider this game a perfect one for youngster and old ones. It is just very wholesome and I bet 99% will enjoy their time with this game. Just be aware of that the constant effects on controller side will wear the battery down rather fast. Dont let yourself confused this is no comparison to the standard usage of other games and cannot be compared.

    Enjoy next-gen on the PS5, dont miss out this free game.

    This game was meant to be a tech demo for the PS5 Dualsense controller and it ended up being so much more. Game is genuinely such a fun time from the gameplay to all of the secrets/colelctables, to the beautiful colors, visuals overall presentation to the genuine cuteness of it. This is more than a tech demo. Definitely worth giving a try and an easy platinum.

    5 horas de jogo - Platinado:
    Jogo de plataforma surpreendente principalmente por ser gratuito e com o simples proposito de apresentar os diferenciais do controle do ps5, o jogo foi feito perfeitamente, não vi praticamente nenhum bug ou defeito, só diversão, um mundo bem colorido, diferente e bonito que já apresenta o visual muito bom que o play5 consegue fazer.

    O controle do ps5 é incrível nesse jogo, todas sensações que ele proporciona são muito boas, o gatilho é uma absurdo, mds, mt bom, trilha sonora viciante, fiquei ouvindo dps no youtube por um bom tempo, lembra muito a diversão que os jogos antigos de plataforma transiam e eram populares, que hoje em dia das grandes só a Nintendo consegue popularizar aí.

    Muito divertido, inovador no controle do play5 e maneiro com as referência e celebração do play5, para ser perfeito, 10/10 faltava só ter mais mecânicas de jogo de plataforma como um Crash, Mario ou Spyro, em fim, espero que façam uma continuação realmente apostando em um jogo de plataforma com todos esses elementos que faltaram aí.

    E os Easter Eggs são sensacionais, muito bom mesmo!.

    Recomendo muito, acredito que a frase que representa ele é ser EXTREMAMENTE DIVERTIDO!

    Dificuldade: 7/10.
    Gráficos/Arte/Design: 10/10.
    Trilha Sonora: 10/10.
    Narrativa/História: ?/10 -> Não possui, ele é aquele tradicional jogo de plataforma das antigas!.
    Gameplay: 8/10.
    Requisitos: 10/10.(o ps5 padrão já alcança os 4k/60fps, não precisa de um "ps5 pro").
    Duração: 10/10.
    BUGS/Otimização: 10/10.(como falei antes, o jogo executa já 4k/60fps, mt bom).
    Conquistas: 10/10.
    Interface: 10/10.
    Preço: 10/10.
    Diversão: 9/10

    I played this while waiting to install other Playstation games. I usually play on Xbox Series X, and this game blew my mind. The graphics are really good, I struggle to think of Xbox exclusives that look better. It's also just a really fun cute game, and a perfect way to show players what PS5 and the Dual Sense controller can do. Xbox and Nintendo can learn from this.

    Jesus, what a huge Playstation nostalgia rush! These guys sure know how to build a legacy and a public image! Gameplay is short and sweet, basically Astro's VR stuff in just 2D, but with the amazing new controller.

    Despite beating the game, I find myself returning to Astro’s Playroom for its pure joy.

    With all around fantastic gameplay, graphics, design, and just overall fun, I’d argue that under different circumstances, this could have even been considered a game of the year contender. I never realized just how much the Sony PlayStation had influenced my life until I played this game.

    Astro’s Playroom is way more than just a technological demo. It’s probably the best way to introduce players to the new DualSense controller. And it comes free with PlayStation 5. [Issue#308]
