Just like Deadpool & Wolverine was a great tribute to Fox's Marvel universe, Astro Bot is a great homage to PlayStation. Nostalgia hits hard at various moments, and I admit there were some moments of pure joy that took me back to my childhood. In short, Astro Bot is not a game for kids; it's a game for adults who haven't allowed themselves to abandon their inner child.

I have to admit, when I first saw the title, I was expecting a solid game inspired by classic JRPGs—but I never imagined the level of emotion and quality that Sandfall’s debut would end up delivering. It’s almost like the Final Fantasy XVII of our dreams. It features one of the best narratives I’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing, with gameplay that’s both engaging and addictive. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is, in many different ways, a masterpiece. When one falls, we continue.
