Astro Bot: new speedrun level and Special Bots out tomorrow
Hi everyone, it’s my pleasure to update you on some brand-new Astro Bot content that will be arriving this month.
First, on behalf of Team Asobi, I would like to say a big thank you to all the Astro Bot players. We couldn’t be happier seeing the reactions from players, both young and old(er). It’s warmed the hearts of all the little crew Bots here at Team Asobi HQ.
We have read so many great reviews and received so many positive comments, and it’s been amazing. However, if there was one piece of feedback that came through loud and clear, it was that you wanted more. So rather than put our little robotic feet up just yet, we have been busily beavering away, and we have some new surprises ready for you.
As announced in the recent State of Play trailer, starting on October 17 we will be releasing the first of our brand new speedrun levels, Building Speed. These levels will test your platforming skills and alongside an online leaderboard, will give you the chance to compete against all your PlayStation friends.
In Building Speed, with the help of Barkster, the bulldog booster, you will blast your way through a sky-high city. Dodge cranes, smash through crates, and even speed through a flying car wash on the way to rescue your stranded crew.
Following on from this we will release a brand new speedrun level each week, so by the time you have perfected every jump, hover and spin in one level, a new challenge will await you.
The release schedule is as follows:
Note: All Astro Bot updates* from October 17 to November 14 will be available every Thursday at 6:00am PT, 2:00pm BST, and 10:00pm JST.
What’s more, each of these new levels contains two brand-new Special Bots for you to rescue. That’s 10 new beloved characters to add to your crew. We gave a sneak peek of Eve from Stellar Blade and the Helldivers. However, as for who is next, well that’s for you to find out. So, get busy rescuing.
Lastly, the best thing, it’s all at no extra cost.
We want to thank you again for all the
