Speaking of our Astro Bot review, IGN's Simon Cardy had high praise for this game. He said that Astro Bot is a "collection of endlessly inventive levels and fantastically fun abilities, it delivers joy in spades, never once becoming even remotely dull or repetitive. And while you don’t need a long history with Sony systems to enjoy it, it is especially a delight for those with a piece of PlayStation in their heart as a treasure trove full of playable nostalgia awaits."
Astro Bot even got a free expansion recently called Winter Wonder, which is a very nice little bonus for shoppers. According to the PlayStation Blog post from Nicolas Doucet, Studio Director at Team Asobi, "You will need to have completed the game for this special update to appear. Since we want it to remain a little surprise, we will not say too much, but you should expect a fun-filled level with shiny presents, a good dose of jingle bells, and brand-new special bots to add to your crew!"
