In a recent PlayStation Tournaments XP event, fans of Astro Bot were thrilled to learn about a new speedrunning level coming to the game. Since its 2024 release, Astro Bot has captured the hearts of players and critics alike, gathering numerous awards along the way. The anticipation builds as Team Asobi hints at more exciting updates, including the possibility of new cameo bots.
Astro Bot, developed by Team Asobi, took the gaming world by storm in 2024. It not only won plaudits from critics but also claimed top honors at The Game Awards 2024 as Game of the Year. This victory saw it surpass highly anticipated competitors like Black Myth: Wukong and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Beyond its captivating main storyline, the game has since added several enticing features, such as speedrunning levels and a winter-themed DLC, keeping players engaged long after the main adventure.
Good news for Astro Bot enthusiasts: more content could be on the horizon. During the finals of a PlayStation event, a preview of the new speedrunning level made waves. A clip shared by Genki on Twitter showcased Astro utilizing the Time Stopper ability to freeze enemies, enabling quicker passage to the finish line. There’s a clever twist where Astro must use a flower to gain extra height, adding a fresh challenge to the mix.
While there’s no official release date for this new level, we’re left to wonder if it might accompany a larger DLC pack. Rumors have it that more cameo bots might join the fray, with whispers of a potential Tekken crossover featuring Heihachi.
Even without a clear roadmap for Astro Bot in 2025, the recent news is exciting. Team Asobi has a rich universe of intellectual properties to draw from for future references and cameos. It’s thrilling to think about how new levels might leverage the unique abilities introduced in the game.
Looking to the future, Astro Bot’s prospects seem as bright as ever. Its ascent as a PlayStation mascot—cemented by its origins in Astro’s Playroom and furthered by its 2024 game—suggest that as long as there are more adventures lined up, Astro Bot is here to stay. It will be fascinating to see how the beloved robot continues to evolve and entertain in the years to come.
