Astro Bot Gets Mysterious New Update That Brings It to Version 1.018
Team Asobi has released a new Astro Bot patch on August 8, and this is an unannounced update. Therefore, don’t expect any new levels or bots—at least for now. There is a chance the data includes new content that will be activated at a later time.
PS5 gamers will see this download appear as Astro Bot update version 1.018 (ver. 01.018.000), and it clocks in at 400 MB, which is par for the course when it comes to download sizes for the game. When it comes to content drops, it’s usually at that same size of 390 MB to 400 MB, which could mean there’s content tucked away in the update.
Astro Bot’s Latest Update Version 1.018 Sneakily Released
Given that the Challenge free DLC was just released last month and included new levels and bots, it’s wishful thinking to think that this update brought new content. That said, one can hope, no?
So far, the studio hasn’t announced any new update or mentioned whether the Challenge content drop would be the last. If I had to hazard a guess, this applies fixes to various issues that affected the new levels, and we’ve reached out to Sony to see if they’re willing to comment about today’s patch.
Team Asobi’s social media hasn’t said anything about today’s update as well, which isn’t surprising to see.
If we receive a response from Sony, we’ll update the article; however, we do not expect them to comment on it.
Once another Astro Bot update is out, expect it here on MP1st.
