Astro Bot has dominated since its launch, and it appears the hype is set to continue after future DLC cameos have been teased.
One little PlayStation bot has proven that joy is the key to an entertaining and unforgettable gaming experience.
Reviewed by GAMINGbible’s Kate Harrold, it was dubbed “an all-time great of stratospheric proportions”.

For such a lil guy, Astro has a lot of charisma. Check out the Astro Bot trailer below
We’re not alone in our praise for the Sony title, and thus, news that more cameo bots are potentially on the way is fantastic indeed.
As the credits roll on Astro Bot, Team Asobi shouts out to several different publisher IPs for their inclusion in the game.

This typically wouldn’t be newsworthy; however, it’s the fact that thanks is being given to IPs that weren’t included that have grabbed gamers’ attention.
Specifically, Assassin's Creed, Beyond Good & Evil, and Rayman.
None of these titles are in the game, yet Ubisoft got three different shoutouts during the course of the credits; as per VGC’s detailed analysis of the game.
This could point to cut content, however, it’s just as likely that future cameos are on the way in DLC.

As the highest rated game of the year thus far, it’s not like Astro Bot needs to deliver more content for it to reign supreme – it’s already blown competition out of the water.
Still, we’d love to see a bot version of Ezio running around parkouring their way across our screens.
It’s not just Ubisoft titles that have been teased, Worms and Rise of the Ronin were also included despite their lack of content in-game.
For the time being, there’s still much to explore in Astro Bot (assuming you haven’t spent the whole weekend playing it).

We doubt this is the end for this joyful experience, but even if it is and no future cameo bots arrive, we’ve all had a blast with Astro Bot.
