Codes are now out in the hands of reviewers, with the review embargo set to lift the day before release on September 5th at 13:00 BST:

Bit odd to leave it that late, normally it'd be a cause for concern but PlayStation seem to do it a lot with their big releases so no concern at all here ::shrug:

Just 7 days to go!! :bouncy:

I could use this game right now, because love sucks 🥲 (might go into that a little deeper with another post, but then again, I might not :p)

Don't need reviews. It's going to be a 10/10 anyways :D

Just watched that 3 minute trailer again and it always puts a smile on my face :)

Launch trailer:

So close I can nearly taste it :bouncy: really hoping we get some cool team-ups here between the Bots to have some franchises cross streams. 

Just seen that Playroom has been updated too, guessing that's the final character?

Per the PS Blog, a special celebration will be held inside Astro's Playroom in the hours leading up to release: 

Quote

Please remember to collect your 4 special Bots in Astro’s Playroom, pre-loaded on your PS5. Once rescued, you will be able to take these bots to the new game and add them to your starting crew. And in the last few hours preceding the release of Astro Bot, we will hold a special celebration countdown inside Astro’s Playroom. Please come and check it out.

Absolutely love this! :D

Just got the final extra trophy for Astro's Playroom and then I see this :D

GIMME NOW!

Edit:

 

Arg those clapping sessions are so cringeworthy, not even a child is treated so condescendingly for completing a level...

 

I made the investment today, not even bothering with the Zelda at the moment. This is where the action is. Physical copy of course, because fuck digital if I can help it.

I'll get that 4th character later, I'm sure it'll be after a great "riddle"

"The" Zelda?
Are you 60 or something? Man, I just got flashbacks to some old fogie saying that to me in the 90's.

It's as bad as you still saying "Ninty". Now who's stuck in the 90's? Bet you call Miyamoto Shigsy/Shiggy as well. :D

Difference is that The Zelda was dated even back then!

I do initially think "Shigsy!" When he appears on t'screens.

Everyone loves it when you put "the" in front of of things, I'm sure you remember back in t'day when we all used the internets and poking people on the Facebooks.

I saw a video about this phenomenon on the Youtubes.

How you were supposed to work out what to do without looking up on the internet is beyond me. ::shrug:

Some people did it. You're clearly a dumbdumb.
(I also used a guide :p)

4 nights of sleep and hopefully I'll be able to play Astro Bot :D Cannot wait!

I had to use a guide for 2 of the 4 hidden Robots (2 and 3).  I mean, how the heck would you be able to work out one of them without the guide.

Still, can't wait until Friday.  Had 2x £20 PSN vouchers i've saved for this (one from GAME's Reward scheme ending, the other i cashed in on the PS Stars program before they change it).

Seems like street date has been broken by some retailers over here in the UK – so, best to be wary of potential things being spoiled (in case you weren't already), I know it can be a bit weird for a game like this but cameos and the potential for certain franchise characters meeting up I imagine people not wanting to be spoiled. 

More importantly, someone's confirmed that this game will have three save files. My least favourite part of Playroom BY FAR was the fact that the only way to play through it again on my PSN profile would be to delete/upload my original save data, so I'm over the moon :D

Also, obligatory:

COME ON :D

Can't remember a week going by this slowly. Which is both great because usually time passes way too fast now that I'm almost 100 years old, but also bad because I wanna play Astro Bot.

And yes, you will get more gifs in here over the next couple of days. Deal with it or put me on the ignore list if you haven't already. See if I care. I will care :(
