As someone who loved the game I'm very glad to hear that the game had such a great start in the UK. Let's hope this game is such a big success that Sony invests more into platformers and into Team Asobi specifically.

Impressive, but almost certainly a distant 2nd. Still impressive for a team of 60ish to put out 4 years despite COVID.

I bet they'll just stick to their current team scope. If it ain't broke don't fix.

Nicolas Doucet said that even if Asobi expanded it would be to work on 2 games at the same time. Would love that!

Love to see it. So many people praying on the failure of this game on Twitter

It's an absolute gem of a game.

That's very good, hope it will be an eye opener for the industry about this type of games

Nice, I'm currently working on the platinum. The main levels are really shining through. Every level has something new. The side levels are sometimes brutal to me. Guess I just need to play more platformers. Coming from Wukong I thought this will be a chill experience LOL

It indeed does!!!

Is it really worth it? I played the original, loved it finished it. But I'm not sure about the new one. Wish it had a trial.

Astro Bot? Yes 100 %!

I hope Astro Bot will make the necessary sales to have sequels because we need a game like this once every year or two, especially since it's made so well, remember that you still need games with amazing stories, graphics that are more which, I sat and enjoyed the game from the first minute to the last, few games do that today.
