Astro Bot was recently released and is already shaping up to be one of the best games on PlayStation this year so far. Its future DLC could include characters from Stellar Blade, Rayman, and other properties.
Almost every part of the new game has been praised by players, including its adorable visuals and its immersive gameplay.
Various features that many people enjoy include the VIP and Cameo Bots which were inspired by classic video game characters from other franchises.
Astro Bot DLC
Some players who already reached Astro Bot's credits also saw other properties that were mentioned. These could be added in a future DLC for the game and include Beyond Good & Evil and Assassin's Creed.
Other titles that were mentioned in Astro Bot's credits are Rayman, Worms, Stellar Blade, Rise of the Ronin, and Croc. When players saw these, they speculated that the properties would be featured in the new game in some way in the future, according to ComicBook.
Many fans have already shared the credits on various social media platforms but the mention of the properties being added as DLC is still just a rumor. This is because there is no official announcement yet explaining the reason the names appear in Astro Bot's credits.
In the game, the VIP and Cameo Bots have become a fun way for Sony to make use of the history of the video games industry. It could be surprising if there are more on the way for this part of the game than what has been shown already.
Team Asobi made Astro Bot and the platforming adventure is exclusive to the PlayStation 5. It is the sequel to Astro's Playroom which was released on Nov. 12, 2020.
The latest game launched on Sept. 6, 2024, and has already become one of the highest-rated games of the year for a lot of critics and players, said Indy100.
Possible Astro Bot Cameos
On top of the credits, the game's concept art also featured characters that are not currently seen in the game. These include Sweet Tooth from the Twisted Metal franchise as well as a Fat Princess bot.
Something that a lot of people have also mentioned is the seeming lack of Square Enix franchises from the leaks and lists. These are a significant part of PlayStation's history in the video games industry.
Previously, Team Asobi mentioned that they plan to release free Astro Bot DLC that will feature speedruns, challenge missions, and many more. For now, fans have to wait for official news about further details, according to PlayStationLifestyle.
