Fantastic platformer with exceptional gameplay and perfectly executed mechanics.
A gorgeous PS5 platformer that constantly shows off slick physics, lush water and foliage, and packs in loving homages to dozens of PlayStation classics across its varied levels. Collecting the little bots and exploring each themed world is a joy, and the visuals and music repeatedly impress, making it feel like a showcase for the hardware.
Legitimately great platformer that makes excellent use of VR technology, adding depth and scale.
A standout 3D action-platformer and heartfelt love letter to PlayStation, delivering tight, responsive controls and inventive DualSense haptics across vibrant, varied worlds. Strengths include a steady stream of fresh powerups, cinematic boss fights, and franchise-inspired secret levels packed with fan service. An absolute must-play that ranks among the best in its genre.
Excellent 3D platformer with joyous presentation and 169 collectible cameo bots.

“A charming and excellently designed 3D platformer with impressive physics, nostalgic PlayStation references, and tons of good ideas. The only real drawback is the lack of co-op, though the reviewer notes this is largely pointless given the game's design focus on exploration over combat.”
