Astro Bot DualSense Pre-Orders Are Live Now In Australia

I'll take five!

In case you missed the news, PlayStation recently revealed what is easily one of its best Limited Edition controllers yet, themed on and releasing at the same time as Astro Bot on September 6th.

The special controller features a stark white shell accompanied by striking blue accents on the handles and buttons, neat embellishments that are actually carved-in to the controller and not just decals, and Astro’s iconic digital peepers on the touch pad. It’s a genuinely great-looking piece and perfectly captures the game’s vibe.

The best part is, pre-orders for the controller have just gone live. Here’s what you need to know and where to secure yours:

I recently went hands-on with Astro Bot and had a ripper of a time, writing, “I couldn’t show you even 30 seconds during my time with Astro Bot that didn’t feature something new and exciting for me to see or do. It’s a celebration of what makes 3D platformers so compelling as much as it is a celebration of all things PlayStation, and powered by the platform’s new de facto mascot it’s entirely emblematic of the sheer wonder to be found in video games. If the final product has me grinning and cheering even half as consistently as these handful of stages did, it’ll be tough for anything to beat Astro Bot out as the most joyful game of the year.”

And if you’re invested in the current ARG-esque updates and riddles in Astro’s Playroom in the lead up to the new game, we’ve got all the answers here.
