It’s a surreal, magical experience, and we recommend booting up Astro’s Playroom first before you play anything else. Better still, not only is it a genuinely top PS5 exclusive, it's completely free.
You’ll feel sensations that you didn’t know were possible before thanks to Sony’s haptic feedback and adaptive triggers tech, such as what it feels like to walk along different surfaces or fire a Gatling gun. It’s the way Astro’s Playroom shows off the DualSense controller, though, that really steals the show.
From the sumptuous, crystal clear 4K visuals, to the pleasing 3D audio, this is a gem of a platformer and it’s pre-installed on every PS5. From feeling different surfaces 'underfoot' to loading springy jumps with the triggers, it's superb.Īstro’s Playroom is the best pack-in game since Wii Sports, as it perfectly showcases what Sony’s new system can do. The way Astro's Playroom deploys the DualSense's features and powers is unparalleled.
