Astro Bot is a Midweight on PS5: SSD Space Required by the New Exclusive Revealed
Astro Bot appears to be a “medium weight” on PS5 in terms of size: the space required on the SSD by the new PlayStation exclusive has in fact been revealed and it is not very little.
According to what has leaked online in these hours, we are able to know the SSD space required by Astro Bot , with the new PS5 exclusive proving to be a sort of “mediumweight” with its 66 GB required.
It’s not exactly light , but compared to other giants you see these days it’s a pretty normal size for a triple-A title of a certain caliber, and Astro Bot, despite coming from a series considered “minor” in terms of size production, is now a major game for the Sony console, especially this year.
On the other hand, Team Asobi has made no secret of the effort put into this new chapter: the first Astro Bot: Rescue Mission was an experimental game for PlayStation VR, which quickly became one of the best ever for the Sony peripheral, while Astro’s Playroom , integrated into all PS5s, is more of a software for testing the various potential of the DualSense controller.
The little robot to the rescue (also for the SSD)
With Astro Bot, the new PlayStation mascot finds himself making his debut in a game with a more traditional setting and production.

It is in fact a 3D platformer which, this time, takes advantage of the full dimensions of a PS5 game and intends to demonstrate how the little robot deserves a space of respect in the pantheon of Sony productions.
It is also the largest production ever put together by Team Asobi, which has remained practically the only representative of the Japanese division of PlayStation Studios and which for this reason also has a notable importance. Inside there are 80 levels and 15 abilities to discover, which explains a little the reason for the rather substantial size of the game.
