Astro Bot's First Speedrun Level Is Out Now in Free PS5 Game Update, More to Come Later | Push Square
Update (17/10/24): Building Speed, the first speedrun DLC level for Astro Bot, is now available on PS5. You'll need to update your game to the latest version, installing a patch that's just shy of 2GB. A further four speedrun levels will be released on a weekly basis, as outlined below.
Original Story: Team Asobi has confirmed the previously announced Astro Bot speedrun levels will roll out on PS5 on a weekly basis, with the first arriving tomorrow, 17th October 2024. Building Speed debuts tomorrow in-game, and then another level will be available every Thursday at 2pm BST / 6am PT until 14th November. Here's what the full schedule of Astro Bot speedrun levels looks like:
Nicolas Doucet of Team Asobi took to the PlayStation Blog to set the scene for 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.» Each new speedrun level will feature two new Special Bots to rescue, and you can also compete for the fastest time on an online leaderboard. It sounds like Eve from Stellar Blade and the Helldivers will be the first two VIP Bots in the speedrun levels.

That’s all we have for today, however watch this space as there may be even more surprises coming soon.» Will you be competing for first place on the Building Speed leaderboard?
