3D platformers are bit of an under-served genre. We had the amazing It Takes Two and Ratchet & Clank Rifts Apart, but it does take more than two to keep the genre lively. Perhaps the latest PlayStation 5 release, Astro Bot will put the genre back in the spotlight?
Launched on September 6th, Astro Bot quickly earned warm reception, and it’s hard to not see why. It’s a lively, colorful, not very serious platform game with a cute main character and great challenge design.
If you have a PS5 and enjoy platform games, miss the charm of Little Big Planet, or envy Nintendo Super Mario Odyssey’s gameplay, you cannot miss this new release.
