FULL STORY
======================================================================

The upcoming PlayStation 5 platforming game Astro Bot is going to receive 
free downloadable content (DLC) after launch according to Nicolas Doucet, the 
studio head of developer Team Asobi. 

This was revealed in a recent interview with IGN , where we were also given 
some hints as to what that DLC might entail. Doucet reportedly said that free 
DLC would be coming soon after the game launches on September 6. He explained 
that it will mainly focus on adding new challenge levels to the game, which 
are effectively bite-size platforming challenge sections, but will also 
contain a few other things. 

He did not provide any details about what these mysterious other additions 
could be, but its definitely easy to speculate. We already know that Astro 
Bot will feature over 50 individual planets to explore , plus more than 150 
PlayStation cameos to discover, and its not hard to imagine a future update 
adding more. 

 Astro Bot was first revealed in a State of Play showcase at the end of last 
month. A follow-up to the excellent Astros Playroom , which is included free 
of charge with every PS5 console, it will be much more substantial and 
introduce over 15 new abilities for you to master. Team Asobi has also said 
that the game will push the DualSense Wireless Controller "to a new level" by 
making full use of all of its unique hardware features including haptic 
feedback and adaptive triggers. 

Everything weve heard about the game so far suggests that it might become one 
of the best PS5 games and best PS5 exclusives of the year. You might also
