Astro's Playroom is one of the launch games for the PS5 which will come installed with every console, and it is not going to be a short game.

4-5 hours. Not bad for a free game.

Since when? All we knew before yestersay was a ”multi-hour adventure and not just a demo”.
Did you have any other source that was more specific ages ago?

^ Yes, when Geoff Keighley played it and demonstrated the DualSense for the first time live.

We got more information about the game at that time (July 17), which quashed the rumours that this is just a controller demo/tutorial and confirmed that it is in fact a multi-hour, albeit smaller sequel to the VR original. PSU did an article on it at the time and it's been talked about since on the podcasts I watch (like PSVRWithoutParole).

EDIT: If you've mistaken me for someone trying to downplay, don't - the first game was my first platinum! I adored it and I'm pumped to get hold of the sequel! I just get fed up with people trying to pass this off as a '10 minutes and done' novelty.

So your source was as I thought. When we learnt it was a multi-hour game, but we didn’t know it was 4-5 hours.
Gratz on Platinum Astro Bot.
An amazing VR-game.

Of course keep in mind that's if you just go from A -B and don't do any side stuff.

Especially for a platformer, this will probably be the 1st game I play on my PS5

4-5 hours seems great for a pre installed game. It looks really fun also. This little guy is becoming a PlayStation mascot.

Never been a fan of Sackboy but I like this little guy.

I think they should make more games with him. He easily could be a mascot you're right. Between this and the Sackboy game it's nice to see platform games return. I have a feeling my 4 year old will like these.

I think the best part is that it will 'show off' in a way, all the new features of the DualSense controller. I'm looking forward to (after playing the game) pondering on the what the possibilities will be in regards to using the dualsense features and how games will FEEL in the future.

Might I point out. As wel as the triggers and haptic.

There's an improved central touch pad
A vastly improved speaker
The improved LED lights
(visible on the front either side of touchpad)

And a different raised grip on the analogue sticks.
