Astro Bot just received its latest free update, adding five more levels and new bot cameos to Team Asobi's Game of the Year-winning platformer.Originally announced during Sony's June 2025 State of Play, the update adds a new galaxy, the Vicious Void, for players to explore. Four of the levels are titled Twin-Frog Trouble, Suck It Up, Handhold Havoc, High Inflation, with Team Asobi keeping the name of the fifth as a surprise. The addition of the new levels brings Astro Bot's total level count to over 90.The developer teased in a blog post that completing the new galaxy "might lead to something really cool," so players will have to dive in and see what surprises are in store.It wouldn't be an Astro Bot update without new Special Bot cameo appearances, and now we know a few that players can discover. One is the protagonist of Sucker Punch's upcoming Ghost of Yotei (which is receiving a special State of Play).Two other cameos players have discovered are Cloud and Sephiroth from Square-Enix's Final Fantasy 7, the former of which will do his signature Omnislash when provoked. Another fan-favorite character, 2B from NieR: Automata, can also be found. Players had long wondered why no Square-Enix, and more specifically why no Final Fantasy characters, were present in Astro Bot at launch, so it's nice to see some finally included.In addition to new levels, Sony as part of its June State of Play announced a new limited-edition Astro Bot DualSense controller, one with a slightly different expression from a previous Astro Bot controller. That controller is still not available for preorder, though Sony said it will launch later this year and that it would have more information to share soon.Astro Bot received PlayStation 5 Pro support and new, more challenging levels back in February. Team Asobi's platformer won numerous Game of the Year awards, including at 2024's The Game Awards and the 2025 BAFTA Awards. GameSpot called it one of the 10 best games of 2024.
