Rumor: Astro Bot On Sale via PlayStation Store

Various users have reported Astro Bot is on sale for them via PlayStation Store.

What makes this sale unusual is Astro Bot is not part of the recently launched “November Deals” promotion, and more surprisingly is not even consistent across users/regions.

The original reddit post mentions the game is 20 percent off in the US. I checked prior to making this post, and as someone in the East there was no sale. I spoke to an associate in the West who reported Astro Bot was 15 percent off for them. Other posts mention as much as 25 percent, and as little as 5 percent off.

While no one is sure what specifically is going on, we can confirm purchases at the discounted rate will go through at the pictured amount. No word from Sony if they will honor said purchases, though it’s likely anyone who purchases will retain access.
