In its review for IGN, Simon Cardy awarded *Astro Bot* a score of 9, calling it one of the most joyful and inventive platformers in recent memory: “Astro Bot made me smile from beginning to end. 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.”

“Taking the PS5 marketing mantra that 'play has no limits' more seriously than you’d expect, Team Asobi has crafted a mascot platformer that goes near enough toe-to-toe with Nintendo's best efforts, and that's about as high a compliment as I can give it.”

If you’re still on the fence about upgrading to a PS5, this bundle provides a strong case for making the leap. With *Astro Bot* included, it’s not only one of the best deals around but also a celebration of PlayStation’s legacy—making it a perfect entry point into Sony’s next-gen ecosystem.
