When the Sony PlayStation 5 released in Nov. 2020, it came with only one free game that was pre-installed. That game was Astro’s Playroom, a short demo that showed new PS5 owners the power of the new console and the PS5 DualSense Wireless Controller. And but now, Sony just dropped the sequel.

Simply titled Astro Bot, the new game for PS5 is available for purchase starting on Friday (Sept. 6) for $59.99 at Target and other retailers.
