Sorry, PSVR 2 owners. It looks like Astro Bot won't be getting any support for the VR headset.

This was confirmed in an interview with the upcoming game's creative director, Nicolas Doucet. MinnMax's Ben Hanson posed the question as to whether Astro Bot will make it to PSVR 2, to which Doucet replied: "no chance," adding that "it would be a different game."

In better news, Doucet doesn't shut down the possibility of a PC version of Astro Bot somewhere down the line. When asked if he has a message for PC players who'd like to play the game, Doucet replies: "Well, we want to hear from you. Absolutely, we want to hear from you." Not a concrete yes, then, but at least the door is open there.

The game is also set to feature more than 150 PlayStation character cameos. Like previous games in the series, such as Astro's Playroom, we're expecting plenty of deep cuts here - which has us excited.
