10 cameos we want to see next in Astro Bot

When I first delved into Astro Bot’s immersive galaxy, I was astonished to see how many cameos it packed in. Sure, I suspected a few would show up,🅘 but I would have never guessed to see a whopping 173 exclusive cameos.

The future of Astro Bot is even more exciting, with the promise of the DLC expanding the cameo collection. While their identities are shrouded in mystery, we can’t help but speculate and eagerly await the next wave of characters. Here are our top picks for the cameos we hope to see next in Astro Bot.

Rayman

Astro Bot’s end-credits scene fueled the rumor mill when it hinted at a few titles not shown in the game. One of which was Rayman, the boy wonder of PlayStation’s hit platformer series. Before I saw the scene, I had actually been pondering his nonexistence in the game, especially since characters around the same period were available.

Now, it’s looking like he’ll be a part of the universe in some shape or form. And I just know that Rayman’s unique platformer mechanics would be a perfect fit for Astro Bot, setting the stage for a challenging new world.

Assassin’s Creed characters

Besides Rayman, the end-credits scene sparked excitement for an Assassin’s Creed crossover. The sheer abundance of AC titles makes it hard to pick just one character for Astro Bot. Howeverꦐ, Ezio seems like a safe bet as one of the most-known characters in the franchise.

If it were up to me, I would go for someone slightly more underrated, like Kassandra in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Whatever the case, I just want to see that tiny Astro Bot in the iconic assassin’s hoodie and maybe an option to free-fall down in a level.

Marvel’s Spider-Man’s Miles Morales and Peter Parker

Since Astro Bot harnesses several Insomniac Games appearances, why not add a few more with Peter Parker and Miles Morales? Both have already immersed themselves in multiple universes, so having them in Astro Bot isn’t too much of a stretch.

It’s not like Spider-Man hasn’t been in Astro Bot title before, regarding the webified Easter Egg in Astro’s Playroom. That also gives me an idea of incorporating a new web-slinging ability to diversify the bot’s skills.

Cloud Strife (And basically any Final Fantasy character)

The Final Fantasy series is no stranger to gaming collaborations, from Kingdom Hearts to Fall Guys. In light of this, I’m hoping for at least one more crossover with Astro Bot. Given that Rebirth was released in the same year, C🌄loud Strife 🔥would be my first pick.

Like Spider-Man, Cloud has an Easter Egg of his own in Astro’s Playroom, placing his iconic sword in a spotlight. But if not Cloud, then maybe Team Asobi could go with Final Fantasy’s many other characters. They could kick it old school with the original’s main protagonists or enter the modern era with FFXVI’s Clive Rosfield.

The Prince of Persia

I’ve been seeing many desires for various Astro Bot cameos, but the one I haven’t heard about much is the Prince from Prince of Persia. Since we previously dug into a potential Assassin’s Creed collab, Team Asobi could give some love to Ubisoft’s other title to complete the collection.

I can already see it now: a challen🔯ging desert level with the Prince awaiting your rescue in a tranquil oasis. You could💯 also add in the Astro Bot’s Time Stopper ability to create the ultimate collaboration.

Kingdom Heart’s Sora

Even though there are many staples of my childhood in Astro Bot, the Kingdom Hearts series is the only one missing. It totally makes sense for this franchise to be included, mainly since they both share the qualities of featuring cameos. Plus, the Space Galaxy reminds me a lot of Kingdom Heart’s worlds with their planet layouts.

Sora would be the obvious choice for a VIP bot as the series’ main protagonist. Throw on some spiky hair and a keyblade to a character, and voila, you got yourself a robotic Sora. Heck, even just adding a keyblade to the bot would make me happy.

Helldiver

A Helldiver Astro Bot seems like a pretty good idea, given the huge success it has gained over the past year. Not to mention the fact that it is a Sony title, which makes me wonder why it isn’t in Astro Bot in the first place.

Astro Bot already features a ton of characters sporting a body suit and helmet look. In fact, I did get some Helldivers’ vibes from the Killzone bot’s design. It could act as a foundation for the suit if Helldivers ever makes it into Astro Bot.

Sly Cooper’s Bentley and Murray

When I first saw Sly Cooper enter the world of Astro Bot, I was ecstatic to see my old childhood icon in the bot’s adorable get-up. However, I couldn’t help but think that Sly looked a bit lonely at the Crash Site. The reason for that lies in Cooper Gang’s constant need for togetherness, where Murray and Bentley have (for the most part) stayed at his side.

So, please, Teaඣm Asobi, share some love for Murray and Bent🍸ley. They are as much a part of the Cooper gang as Sly is.

Stellar Blade’s EVE

In addition to Rayman and Assassin’s Creed, Stellar Blade was another title that could be in the cards. And, if I had to choose a VIP bot for this entry, it would have to (obviously) go to EVE. She has the combat and exploration down, making her▨ the right choice for this platformer game.

I wouldn’t mind getting a Stellar Blade-insp🌜ired world for a potential level, diving us into a🌜 dystopian world filled with Naytiba-like enemies.

Twisted Metal’s Sweet Tooth

To keep us on Astro Bot’s nostalgic train, I would love to see Sweet Tooth cause some mayhem in the galaxy. I know he’s a bit more rambunctious than the other characters on this list, but maybe we need a little insanity in this roster.

That way, a new potential racing level could be included in the game, going along with the fast-paced nature of the courses. It’ll work out well for the upcoming speedrunning feature, which will be coming to the Astro Bot DLC. I mean, the game does have an area called the “Crash Site,” so a Twisted Metal integration does seem highly plausible.
