Astro Bot Update 1.016 Adds Armored Hardcore and Last Announced New Bot
[summaraize]
This is how fast four weeks went by. Team Asobi’s last announced content drop for the Vicious Void Galaxy free DLC is now live as Astro Bot update 1.016. This adds the Armored Hardcore level and another new boy for players to rescue.
The download clocks in at 390MB, and includes the free level, the new bot (which we’ll name below), and a new trophy called “Rolling Rescue” to accompany the content.

This week’s new bot is none other than Ezio from Assassin’s Creed! This new bot coincides with the release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows next week on March 20.

While Ezio is not in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the character is the protagonist in multiple games in the series kicking off with Assassin’s Creed 2, AC2: Discovery in 2009, AC: Brotherhood in 2010, AC: Rwvelations in 2011, and even the protagonists in the Assaassin’s Creed short films.
Today’s new level is the last content drop that was revealed by Team Asobi last month. There’s no word if we’re getting another content drop for the game, though I wouldn’t bet against it, since the character from the poster that was posted by Arrowhead Game Studoos (and soon deleted) has still not made an appearance. Chances are, that character will make an appearance in the game in the future, and that means they will be a new bot to rescue.
In terms of new bots, everything is fair game, just don’t expect Cloud or any Final Fantasy 7 characters to make an appearance, as Square Enix has shot down that idea last year.
If Team Asoboi announces another content drop for the game, we’ll be sure to let our readers know ASAP.
