Sony Reveals Astro Bot Success: Over 1.5 Million Copies Sold

Astro Bot is the latest 3D Platformer developed by Team ASOBI, released on 6 September 2024 exclusively for Playstation 5. Featuring the fun adventures of the lovable robot Astro and celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Playstation. This colorful, fun-filled game offers a journey through 90 levels, paying homage to various Playstation ecosystem IPs.

Astro’s unexpected success has solidified him as an official Mascot for Playstation. Astro previously appeared in Astro Bot Rescue Mission as a showcase for the PSVR, and later in Astro’s Playroom to demonstrate the capabilities of the PS5.


Astro Bot: Surpasses 1.5 Million Copies Sold in Less Than a Month

The news comes directly from Sony’s financial report on 8th November 2024. Where Astro Bot stands out among Playstation IPs. With exactly 58 days since launch, Astro’s adventures have sold over 1.5 million copies.

A remarkable achievement for Astro’s first full-fledged adventure, enthusiastically received by fans and further establishing him as the Playstation Mascot. Fans now await Team Asobi’s next moves, hoping for more Astro adventures.

The Impact of Astro Bot for Sony and Team Asobi

The impact of Astro Bot’s success is undeniably larger than expected. Playstation has long been seeking a Mascot to appeal to a younger demographic, similar to Mario for Nintendo.

Astro Bot’s influence is already visible, with data showing that 37% of sales come from New Users in the Playstation ecosystem. Currently, Team ASOBI is releasing free DLC for Astro Bot, and paid expansions may also be in the works. It’s clear that Playstation will bring new Astro adventures soon.
