“Astro is very, very important to PlayStation,” said Hulst.

“Obviously we had the pre-install with the PlayStation 5 that millions have embraced and loved, and I think that’s becoming a little bit of a platform to launch this new game now.

He further talks about expanding to family friendly genre

“It’s massively important that PlayStation studios develops games in various genres and the family market is really important for us to focus on,” Hulst said.
