The
absurdly
cute
Astro
Bot
is
apparently
gearing
up
for
a
new
game
announcement
within
the
next
two
weeks.

That’s
what
the
extremely
reliable
PlayStation
leaker
Billbil-kun,
anyway.
Writing
on
the
French
website
Dealabs
Magazine,

Billbil-kun
claims
to
have
gotten
exclusive
information
about
the
existence
of
a
new
Astro
Bot
game.

Billbil-kun
says
the
new
game
will
simply
be
called
Astro
Bot
and
is
due
to
be
reveal
within
the
next
few
weeks.
Interestingly,
some
sort
of
PlayStation
event,
either
a
Showcase
or
a
State
of
Play,
has
been
repeatedly
reported
to
be
taking
place
by
the
end
of
the
month.

Billbil-kun
also
points
toward
another
article
he
wrote
just
days
ago
in
which
he

revealed
a
new
Days
of
Play
sale
will
kickoff
at
the
end
of
the
month.
These
sales
typically
coincide
with
a
PlayStation
event.
But
more
importantly
for
this
story,
Billbil-kun
says
that
shortly
after
that
he
stumbled
across
a
publicly
visible
promo
image
for
the
sale,
which
was
quickly
removed,
and
it
featured
none
other
than
Astro
himself.

Now,
this
bit
is
my
own
speculation:
if
Astro
is
depicted
on
the
promo
image
Days
of
Play,
could
that
potentially
indicate
that
will
not
only
be
announced
but
potentially
released
within
the
next
few
weeks?
I
don’t
think
that’s
the
case,
but
I
think
it’s
worth
at
least
considering.

Billbil-kun
also
reveals
a
few
snippets
of
information.
First,
one
of
the
environments
will
be
a
desert,
and
second,
one
of
the
new
characters
will
be
a
robotic
fennec
fox.

Of
course,
we
last
saw
Astro
in
Astro’s
Playroom,
a
fantastic
game
that
comes
loaded
onto
every
PS5.
While
it
was
mostly
a
tech
demo
for
the
PS5’s
DualSense
controller’s
capabilities,
it
was
also
a
surprisingly
excellent
little
platfomer
that
people
loved.

I
adored
that
game,
and
really
hope
this
new
information
is
true
because
Astro
has
the
potential
to
become
a
star.
Billbil-kun
is
typically
a
very
reliable
source,
so
I’m
cautiously
optimistic
that
we’ll
be
seeing
the
cute
little
robot
very
soon.
