Sony has quietly introduced two slim PlayStation 5 bundles that are sure to excite fans, especially since they come with a download voucher for the much-loved Astro Bot game. Meanwhile, Astro’s Playroom will still be pre-installed. These bundles are set to hit the shelves on March 13. Unfortunately, the consoles themselves don’t feature any special Astro Bot design elements, and even the elusive limited edition Astro Bot DualSense controller isn’t part of the package. But here’s the good news: both the disc version and the digital-only version are $50 cheaper than buying the consoles by themselves. So, you’re looking at prices of $449.99 and $399.99, respectively, matching those enticing Black Friday deals.
Ever since Astro Bot’s release last year, I’ve been hoping for a dedicated bundle. The game is nothing short of spectacular, collecting numerous game of the year accolades—it even secured second place on our ranking, just behind Balatro. It’s fantastic to see a bundle that acknowledges the impact it made in 2024. Whether you’re eager to dive into the game or not, these bundles present one of the most budget-friendly ways to step into the world of PlayStation 5.
