Astro Bot gets rave reviews and is a clear GOTY contender

The first Astro Bot reviews are in, and it's fair to say that PlayStation has found itself a new mascot! The game has been unanimously acclaimed by the press the world over.

At the time of writing, Astro Bot boasts a Metacritic average of 94% reviews based in 100 different reviews.

Among the undeniable qualitities of Team Asobi's new title are the great graphics and art style, the use of DualSense, the great content and all the easter eggs scattered throughout the game. On the whole, the only complaint is that Astro Bot doesn't innovate in the platformer genre.
