AstroBot Expands with 5 New Maps and PlayStation Cameos

AstroBot Adds More Planets and More Fun

Team Asobi just revealed a big content update for AstroBot during the latest PlayStation State of Play. The update brings new levels, surprises, and familiar faces. It’s great news for players who love the little robot and his world full of charm, colors, and cool gameplay moments.

One of the most notable games for PlayStation gamers has been AstroBot. Showing off the DualSense controller was the initial purpose, but it soon evolved into something more. In addition to imaginative level design and nostalgic PlayStation allusions, the game features tight platforming. It gained recognition for its accessibility and gameplay over time. Team Asobi has consistently provided support, and now gamers are receiving much more.

The update includes five new challenge maps. These levels arrive in June and raise the total number of planets to over 90. Each map is built to test your reflexes and skill. They include tricky jumps, fast timing, and smart use of Astro’s special moves. It’s a good chance for players to sharpen their platforming skills and explore new worlds.

The levels stay true to the game’s style. They keep the fun energy, bright design, and clever details that make AstroBot feel special. Players will notice new stage themes and fun animations throughout each course.

The addition of guest bots is among the update's most interesting features. These robotic versions of classic PlayStation characters will appear in cameos and playable roles. Team Asobi didn’t name all of them yet, but fans can expect some major throwbacks.

There’s already talk about seeing familiar faces in bot form. Players who grew up with PlayStation might spot some childhood favorites. This move gives the game more variety and adds a new layer of excitement. It also shows how AstroBot continues to celebrate PlayStation’s history in fun and fresh ways.

A New DualSense Controller Inspired by Astro

There’s also new hardware coming. A fresh AstroBot-themed DualSense controller will be released later this year. The design takes its cues from Astro’s look. It features blue and white colors, custom button designs, and a touchpad with new visuals.

Collectors will want to keep an eye out for this one. The controller blends function and style in a playful way. It’s perfect for fans of the franchise or players looking for a unique addition to their setup.
