Astro's Playroom is a game that every prospective PlayStation 5 owner can look forward to. Just like PS4's The Playroom, this 3D platformer comes pre-installed on every PS5 console, aiming to introduce new players to all the next-gen machine's new bells and whistles. As you might expect, the game is also looking absolutely wonderful.
We've embedded a few brand new screenshots from the PS5 title below, and it looks stunning so far. We love all the bright colours, smooth edges, and detail in each image.
There are even more over on the game's freshly updated page on the official PlayStation website. What do you think of Astro's Playroom? Are you excited to jump into this one? Collect some coins in the comments section below.

Where are all of these updates coming from Stephen? I didn't see them on the PlayStation blog
@Zombie9ers never mind - I see you linked it above - they updated their PS5 game page
@Zombie9ers Source is official PlayStation website (mentioned at the bottom of the article)
I'm not getting a launch PS5, I am so jealous of all you lucky, soon to be Astro fans.
If this is like playroom VR I will be very happy. Astrobot should be a new playstation mascot and this game should help more people experience them.
Phwoar! I absolutely can't wait to play this!
The PS4's Playroom was nice to show you some of the controller (and second screen...where did that go???) features, but it was a novelty at best. I absolutely loved Astro Bot Rescue Mission. Hopefully this is a proper mashup of those two!
Astro's body looks to use ray-traced reflections.
I'm really excited to give this a try when I receive my PS5.
Really hoping we see more of Astro in the future.
Will be giving this a go on my new ps5, loved astro boy vr, so hopefully this is more of the same. At least Sony are starting to release some more info past couple of days hopefully it continues. I am thinking we will get a state of play some time in October hopefully.
This will be the first game I'll play on ps5, can't wait to try all of the dualsense features 😃
Hope this tricks people into playing Astrobot in VR, which is quite possibly the most overlooked game this generation. It's so, so good.
Astro Bot rescue mission was one of the greatest games ever made, but wouldn’t have been half as good without VR. As such, I’m disappointed this isn’t at least VR compatible but still looking forward to it (although not as much as sackboy).
What I would like to know however is his much of a game versus (tech) demo it is. Is it a 25hr long game with a platinum trophy, or a 2hr showcase without?
@Bartig
It really is Mario 64 revolutionary. Best game of the last few generations by a country mile.
@JapaneseSonic
At the moment it’s confirmed as a “multi hour game”. Whether that’s 2hrs or 20hrs we don’t know.
@JapaneseSonic We don't really know for sure, but I think it'll be a few hours max. Hopefully more, though!
This is the first game I'm playing when I get my PS5, it looks amazing and hopefully has a good bit of content. Astro Bot in VR is one of my favourite games so I'd love to see a fully fledged sequel
Got an email confirming that my PS5 is coming day one, so I'm definitely going to give this a go! I still need to finish Astro Bot Rescue Mission, but I can't be bothered to set up my PlayStation VR!
Edit: Decided to set up my PlayStation VR and install Astro Bot Rescue Mission now!
@JapaneseSonic I believe they've said it'll be a few hours long.
I can't believe I'm saying this but this is one of the games I look forward to most on my PS5.
@mrobinson91 No shame in that, looks fantastic fun!
I'm honestly looking forward to this more than most of the other launch games.
Come on Sony! we need a full reveal now on PS5 as our consoles will be arriving in about 6 weeks.
It'd be neat if this "world" is a fantasy representation of the PS5's hardware itself. The data stream and pc-like fans everywhere make it seem like that.
Absolutely huge fan of Astro..if this wasn't already preinstalled and was a separate game I would of picked this over all the others!Can't Wait!
Looking forward to this, Astrobot VR is still my favourite VR game to date. Great character - Great mascot for PS5!
Looks ok I think
Will definitely give this a go when I start up the machine. I want to see what all the fuss is about the dualsense
Is this an actual "game" or is it a series of small demos to introduce the system/controller features?
I just hope they do another VR game, good God Astro Bot VR was an AWESOME experience. That is what vr was made for.
Remind me to get the day of for this and Demon's Souls 👀
Still so happy this game is free and preloaded, otherwise would have waited for it to drop down to $5-$10 or become free thru PS+.
Astrobot Rescue Missions makes the purchase price of PSVR worth it alone. I literally had a smile on my face the entire game. A true joy to play. Fun and innovative as well as having great 3D sound. When you hear one of his buddies crying, "Help Me!" In that adorable voice, you won't be able to forward until you find him. It's made by the same team so Ps5 owners are going to be in for an amazing treat! Can't wait. The 12th of November can't come fast enough!
This is also the first free game to be included with a system since since the 16-bit era if I'm not mistaken. At least not from the major companies.
