Gabriel Stanford-ReisingerSony’s latest first-party smash-hit, Astro Bot, has sold over 1.5 million copies in nine weeks.
During Sony‘s Q2 fiscal year result, which ended on September 30, the Japanese giant showed off game sales across its major titles, with applicable games having its numbers combined with PC, such as Helldivers 2, which sits at 12 million, and 2018’s God of War, which stands at 23 million.
Considering Astro Bot is continuing to thrive, especially as new content is added, we suspect this number is a bit higher now as more people are willing to bite the bullet of the game after seeing more content. Developer Team Asobi is obviously pretty dedicated not just to this cutesy bot, but also filling a void that basically all of PlayStation’s studios don’t touch.
In our review, we said: “This lovable, adorable white and blue bot offers a mixture of fun and engaging platforming gameplay with the PS5 spin and PlayStation nostalgia to please both new and longtime fans in multiple ways. “
