Speaking during an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Nicolas Doucet, head of Team Asobi, has revealed that the upcoming Astro Bot on PS5 is by far the “biggest game we’ve ever made,” and marks a new beginning for the franchise.We wanted to make a big game. This is really about going up one notch — really several notches — and having Astro’s big story. We call it Astro Bot because we treat this as a new beginning. That’s a really, really big game. I think for us, that’s the biggest game we’ve ever made.Related Content – Upcoming PS5 Games 2024: The Best PS5 Games Coming SoonAstro Bot was announced during Sony’s May 2024 State of Play event, with Team Asobi later revealing that it will feature over 80 different stages and more than 15 new abilities.
