PlayStation’s latest exclusive Astro Bot may be an easy sweep for trophy hunters on PS5. Just before launch, players have already determined the Astro Bot Platinum length, and it’s rather short.
Astro Bot Platinum length revealed
For those looking to trophy hunt in Astro Bot, you’ll be in for a fairly easy experience. With the original Astro’s Playroom taking just four or so hours to fully complete, this new standalone game is quite a bit longer.
According to PlayStation Game Size, Astro Bot’s Platinum Trophy can be nabbed in just 13 hours. However, some players with the ultimate trophy have taken longer at around 16 hours.
This places the Astro Bot Platinum length at around 13-16 hours. With this in mind, players have managed to complete the adorable PS5 platformer’s main story in just 8 hours.
While some are upset at the game’s “short” runtime, this does seem like the perfect length for a platformer. Sure, it might not be as drawn out as, say, Star Wars Outlaws’ how long to beat times, but that just means it’s a more succinct, polished experience.
Some players are upset
Nevertheless, some players have already expressed disappointment at the length of Astro Bot with many claiming it’s “too short”.
In the comments of the Twitter thread, players complained that the game’s 100% runtime isn’t good enough for a full-priced game.
“The first one was 6-9 hours if I’m not mistaken?” one gamer moaned. “Them charging this much for a game this short no man it’s not right.”
“Only 13 hours to platinum? So like the actual campaign is around 5-7 hours, for $60? That’s a tall ask,” said another.
As other PlayStation fans have noted, the short Astro Bot Platinum length is “fine”. As long as the game is high quality — which we bet it is — then this will be a fantastic platinum experience for PS5 players.
