PlayStation reveals new Astro Bot and Dual Speeder figure to bring joy to our desks
It'll be weird owning a controller I can't use, but at least it comes with a fun little guy.
Astro Bot might just be one of PlayStation's cutest mascots, and it seems that the platform owner is going all-in on the little bot that could, especially after he managed to score the GOTY award at The Game Awards.
Now, as per Genki_JPN, we've got a reveal for a new figure made in partnership with Tamashii Nations featuring Astro Bot and his Dual Speeder, which is basically just a DualSense controller that has jet engines in the handles.
Unfortunately, you can't use this superpowered controller, but you can get it as a collectible figurine, as a smiling Astro Bot hangs off the side. Release date, pre-order details, and price are currently unknown, but we'll endeavour to have an update with that information when we can.
