Astro Bot won’t have set the world on fireplace, however the hype for Workforce Asobi’s follow-up to the beautiful Astro’s Playroom was positively actual. It’s been within the top-five in gross sales charts within the US, within the EU and within the UK.
And based on GamesIndustry.Biz’s Chris Dring, it’s finished higher than just about each different 3D platformer for the final decade. Not less than ones that don’t function a plumber in blue overalls.
Responding to feedback from these debating Astro Bot’s success on Twitter, Dring mentioned “It did greater than that throughout Europe alone. However it might probably solely play out there it’s in. Astro Bot has finished higher than mainly each new 3D platform recreation within the final 10 years (Mario apart).”
“Its true success received’t be identified for years, but it surely’s had a powerful begin for the style,” he provides. Hopefully Astro Bot’s robust begin continues, because it’s simply top-of-the-line video games within the style and positively deserves its success.
