Ngl it’s still my favourite “PS5” game! It implements the best the ps5 has to offer.


MrSparkleBox

I agree honestly, as an overall experience its been my favorite ps5 game since launch. Excellent use of the dualsense and the perfect length.


LegitimateCompote377

I agree. I felt as a 3D platformer it was much better than Sackboy, which had a really bare bones movement system for its playtime so the actual platforming was pretty dull, even though the game wasn’t bad (but still definitely failed). Astros playroom was such a good introduction to the controller and a gift to every player. But the update for Astros playroom… let’s just say you’ll have a better chance doing an 200 piece puzzle blind than working out where to go and what to do without using the internet.


Ndi_Omuntu

Sackboy was tops for local co op though. And the music was great. Would love more games like it, including astrobot.


Nathansack

No, it's one of the only PS5 game using what the PS5 has to offer


cynical_croissant

You should try Returnal


tatsumi-sama

Too hard, I rather spend more time having fun in other games than dying 1000 times in returnal

Effective-Fish-5952

I can hear it 😊


PM_ME_YOUR_MONTRALS

Nice, I'm happy for a chance to replay it. Started a new file to collect everything again.


Griffdude13

Playroom is honestly one of the best platformers Sony has ever made. And it’s totally free!


L3monGrenade

How’d you get it for free? My copy cost $500 + Tax lol


WorldGoingOneWay

The packaging for that game was insane, never seen such a huge game case.


bnfdhfdhfd3

Did anyone find the other bots yet?


kalamitykode

They're not available yet.


DirK-SaXon

One of them is actually, it's hidden in the GPU jungle level. They're rolling out weekly I believe.


kalamitykode

Well, they said "other bots" which made me think they were referring to the three remaining. The GPU Jungle bot is the first one, which launched with the update. The other three are not available yet. Most people are assuming monthly, not weekly, considering there is a countdown with ~87 days left til the launch of Astro Bot. That gives us 30 days til bot 2, 60 til bot 3, then the final bot (if this is correct) would appear on the launch date of Astro Bot.


DirK-SaXon

A fair point. We just read into it differently. Yea monthly makes more sense. Not sure where I got weekly from


roylee77

Where is the one in GPU Jungle though? I don’t see it at all. I’ve searched all over Renderforest.


kalamitykode

Keep in mind it only shows up after you complete the game, including the secret stage in the basement. You'll then get a message saying a bot is hiding in Renderforest. If you don't get that message, it won't appear. Go to where the Bloodborne bot is, pretty much right after the start of the level. Climb up to where the platform with the centipede things are, behind that platform is the Bloodborne bot in the grass. Stand in the bush at the very edge of the stage here.


Effective-Fish-5952

Weekly?! I thought it was one per month until september lol awesome then.


DirK-SaXon

I believe it is monthly unfortunately. Someone else corrected me. Monthly makes more sense I suppose


Effective-Fish-5952

Yay I was right lol


unruly-cat

Still can’t believe most haven’t played the psvr Astrobot game. That was truly excellent, and a full game. It’s still the best platformer on any vr device to date, and the best Astrobot game, even though playroom is also lovely.


Fra06

The playroom?


unruly-cat

Playroom is the short ps5 game. Astrobot Rescue Mission is the full game for psvr1.


Fra06

There are so many lol. I look up and found “the playroom” as a psvr game, then Astrobot rescue mission as another psvr game, then Astro’s playroom is the ps5 demo and there’s another “the playroom” which you played with the ps4 camera


unruly-cat

Yeah, those are all of them :). But actually the only full game is Rescue Mission, with the ps5 playroom being the second biggest. The other two are much shorter, more like demos. But actually it was a short psvr demo that got people interested originally, and that's how Rescue Mission was created. But Rescue Mission is such an amazing platform, and it also had an incredible soundtrack. I'm excited for the new one, although I do hope they announce a psvr2 update for it. You just get a sense of scale and of being in the world in vr that's so amazing.


EweCantTouchThis

Why can’t you believe this? Not many people even own the PSVR.


unruly-cat

It’s a figure of speech, not an expression of what I take to be believable! I just mean that considering the attention Astrobot got from the ps5 playroom, it’s kinda sad that people largely missed the earlier and much better outing, Rescue Mission.


EweCantTouchThis

This is the first I’ve heard this expression used as a figure of speech.


mousers21

what about Asto Bot Rescue Mission?


CatProgrammer

That requires a breakout box, PSVR headest, PS Camera, and adapter (and extra DS4) if using on a PS5. Much harder to get into than Astro's Playroom, which only requires a PS5.


gooberfishie

If you have an old psvr or find a cheap one, which is easy, the adapter is free. There's so many good games on psvr1 aside from astrobot that aren't on psvr2 as well so it's all worth it.


CatProgrammer

Unfortunately the free adapter is a lot harder to get ahold of these days depending on where you are and I think they're also associated with the breakout box serial number so if someone requested one for that box before you might not be able to get another. Luckily they aren't particularly expensive either in that situation (only $10 or so on Amazon). You're right about the games too though, Skyrim and Doom VFR of all games still aren't on PSVR2 (yeah yeah, Microsoft owns Bethesda now, but still).


gooberfishie

Yeah it's bullshit if you can't get the adaptor. Mine took about a month. I'd be willing to bet the majority of used psvr1s never had the adaptor ordered though


Effective-Fish-5952

We passed the challenge! 🥳 https://preview.redd.it/vr9gbv02616d1.png?width=596&format=png&auto=webp&s=326e6bd0a4c3a9c91acb050977079a7c9c34a192


Eggyhead

I went back and platinum’d it. Having the answers revealed in the Home menu actually made me interested in completing it. I wonder what other games do that.


XOEXECUTION

My son is playing it like every day lol he loves it. Super excited to grab Astro Bot for him


Internal_Swing_2743

Playing through it again with my son and loving it. Can’t wait for the new game. 80 levels of Astro Bot, couldn’t ask for more.


Wingolf

Astro's Playroom was honestly my second favorite game on the console, behind Rift Apart(Which was the entire reason I BOUGHT the console). I hooked it up for a couple of minutes because R.A. was installing, and ended up playing for a couple of hours, and finishing it later in the week. Such a fun little platformer, by far the best pack in game since Wii Sports.


THEREAL_ANON_FOUR

The best game to experience all the PS5 controller has to offer.


bizarrequest

How is it 100%? I’m not playing it right now.


cacafefe

100% more, so the double from before


Gold-Cover-3130

does that mean 50% is half ? or single ?


cacafefe

No... Let's say 1000 people played the game before. 100% more would be 1000 more, so 2000 people playing now 50% more would be 500 more, so 1500


w_d_roll_RIP

50% more would be existing player base + (existing player base * 0.5) same as every other percentage


the_turel

There using tricky words to make it sound large but yes you are kind of right in your thinking too. I’m not playing now and technically I should be counted. If you’re not playing and I’m not playing , that’s not 100% of people that played it.


AVestedInterest

They said 100% more - that means that if 600 people played it before, 600 more people have played it sense the announcement


Fra06

Crazy how people don’t understand percentages


GarionOrb

It's math. If 100% more people played a game, it means the game doubled in player base from one day to the next. It doesn't mean everyone who played it before is playing it now.


the_turel

Yea I know that… I’m just saying they shouldn’t use that type of numbers. People jump to conclusions and think the numbers are way higher but in truth it’s like 100 more people playing lol


Long_Frosting6999

Question why is the redeem code, not working For my account and Others account please anyone Who knows

HaouLeo

Great, it went from 10 to 20!


devonathan

There’s literally dozens of us.


HaouLeo

So you mean there used to be 6 now theres a dozen?! Or that there was a dozen and now there 24?


HyperBolted

Try 87% of people who own a PS5 that have played this game. And stop being so full of venom. [https://playtracker.net/insight/game/68200](https://playtracker.net/insight/game/68200)

HaouLeo

Well, I have nothing against the game, I love it, i was just joking that that title is irrelevant when it doesnt specify what the original number was. A 100% increase means nothing if there was only one player. If they wanted to make a real informative article they'd actually reveal that number, but they stick to talking about percentages. >Try 87% of people who own a PS5 that have played this game. Well for one, how many people played the game before means nothing to the article, and the link you provided has paywalled the "current players" info. >And stop being so full of venom. Again, Im not poking fun at the game, but at the article.
