The story
Astro Bot: Rescue Mission is a brand new Platform game exclusive to PS VR. Take control of Astro the captain bot and go on an epic VR rescue mission to save your fellow Bots who are dispersed all over space."
What it’s like
Bright, toy-like and bursting with colour, Astro Bot: Rescue Mission looks like a diorama built for your hands: glossy plastic planets, candy-coloured flora and sun-warmed metal under a soft, cheerful sky, all rendered with the clean, chunky charm of a children's animated special. The camera sits close and moves with you, so each jump and sidestep lands with a satisfying little bounce, and the wide, hand-tracked stages let you lean in and peer at tiny details tucked into every corner. The soundtrack is light and bouncy, full of xylophone twinkles and whimsical brass, with squeaks and chirps from the rescued bots filling the quiet between leaps. Its vibe is playful and warm, a gentle wonder that suits a sunny afternoon or a comfort session in a headset. Pacing is brisk but unhurried, with short levels that reward curiosity more than speed, and the emotional register stays upbeat and affectionate, following a lone robot cheerfully reuniting a scattered crew. Intensity is very low: mild, cartoonish peril, no gore, no real violence, and nothing frightening beyond the occasional clumsy fall. Made for players who want a sweet, inventive VR platformer they can enjoy without tension or pressure.
