According to reports, Sony will launch a new PS5 package with Astro Bot.
The Dealabs writer, Billbil-Kun, who has an extensive history of correctly filtering games, controllers and another hardware before his announcement, says Sony is preparing to launch the hardware package in North America and Europe.
According to Billbil-Kun, the new package would include a standard PS5 console (with a disk drive included) along with a download code for Astro Bot. However, the special controller Bot Dualsense is not expected to include.
Although the price of this package is currently unknown, it is predicted that a price promotion will be offered when the package is launched, with an estimated price of between € 474-499 (a discount on the standard price of € 549 for a PS5 with a driver disc).
The privileged information establishes that the exact launch date of the package is also currently known, but says that it is expected to be around March 13.
Astro Bot was the climax of the PlayStation launching line last year, taking home the game to the game of the year at the game Awards and the New York game awards.
VGC also declared Astro Bot our game of the year by 2024, declaring it “a loving tribute to 30 years of PlayStation.”
Our Astro Bot review described it as “a generationally impressive entry in the genre that understands the playstation at the atomic level.”
“While never returns to nostalgia, the effort of the Asoobi team has done to treat the characters of PlayStation (and some old friends) with respect and love is wonderful,” we write. “While the Astro game room came with each PlayStation 5, each PlayStation 5 needs Astro Bot.”
