Best VR game to date,Graphics are brilliant fun game to play.

Oh man. Never thought I would have that feeling again. It's like you are a kid playing the first time Super Mario 64... just waaay better. The bot is so lovely and cute and so is the level design...

Brilliant soundtrack! Awesome level design! Exciting boss fights! Immersive and Impressive!

"Astro Bot 2? Shut up and take my money!"

It's rare in the modern age that a game comes out that really feels like something new. I hadn't played it until 4 years after it had already came out, but I really do think I can say that this is one of the most magical games I've played in a long time.

It really plays with not just the concept of video games but also the addition of VR to the point where it pushes the medium to its absolute limit. In every way. Normal levels, boss fights, even the hub world, all feel completely alive and almost made me feel nostalgic, even though this is a fairly new character.

A truly once-in-a-decade piece of interactive art. Nuff said.

Astro Bot: Rescue Mission was something I didn't think would be so great as everyone said. Though upon playing it I can confidently say it's among one of the finest achievements in the video game medium and for the VR scene. You're cute little robot goes through a large verity of breathtaking levels ranging from a japan dojo to a New York City scape that often left me in awe marveling at the beautiful work done by Japan Studios. Every level is masterful in its own way, though there are a few caveats in consistency when it comes to perfect level design but what's shown is amazing. What is shown in the gameplay department is mere perfect for the game and it's younger generation aim, though (like Super Mario 64) this is for anybody looking for a good experience. Atro Bot has different abilities for different situations and different levels that help him traverse and all while playing a 3D platform game. The score done by Kenith Young is absolutely marvelous! Each level is completely different in theme and gameplay and the music blends seemlessly with the game. I got a very happy vibe when playing the game while listening to his score, with many well done instrument works in the game that encapsulate different themes and different areas perfectly. you can always appreciate the fantastic music done here. The art and visual style is fantastic and sometimes just breathtaking with the sense of scale and amazement. The enemies are brilliantly designed and Astro Bot himself is a bundle of joy for each level, smiling, waving or even jumping on your helmet during a water level. Attention to detail is very high. On a PlayStation 4 Pro this game looks beautiful in the graphics department. The anti-aliasing is extremely well handled for example on trees and characters in the levels. The lighting is top totch, showing off it's black blacks in the Shadows and luminous light reflections on surfaces make many areas look beautiful. Though one of the most breathtaking levels near the end of the game that featured a thunderstorm had my jaw on the floor in just amazement and awe. One of the best levels in a video game. In conclusion the game is a feat of the industry and pushes boundaries for the VR gaming market. With some brilliant level design, enemies and score it's all the create a masterful whole. A game to be alongside the generation defying Super Mario 64 back 24 years ago. All 3D platformers should take note of this but for the general public, this is a must buy and should be played by any PSVR owner. I give Astro Bot: Rescue Mission a 10/10
