The first of the five new Astro Bot levels, Tick-Tock Shock, already appeared in the game. It first made an appearance at the PlayStation XP Tournament Final in London in January 2025, but no announcements were made about it coming to the game. Today, Team Asobi revealed via the PlayStation Blog that four additional levels will be added in the coming weeks.

Here are the levels that are being added, and when:

  • February 13, 2025: Tick-Tock Shock
  • February 20, 2025: Thrust or Bust
  • February 27, 2025: Cock-a-Doodle-Doom
  • March 6, 2025: Hard to Bear
  • March 13, 2025: Armored Hardcore

Each level will be added in an update at 6am PT/9am ET every Thursday. In order to access the new levels, players must first complete the main game. Each level will feature a new Special Bot to collect, who will be automatically obtained by completing the level. After this, the levels will become speedruns so you can attempt to place your best time on the online rankings.

The new challenge levels are the latest post-launch content added to Astro Bot. Previously, Team Asobi added five speedrun levels in October 2024 and a Christmas level in December 2024.

Astro Bot is out now for PS5, and five new challenge levels are being added up until March 13, 2025.
