After the reveal of Astro Bot on PlayStation 5 at the recent State of Play, Astro's Playroom received an update adding iconic Bloodborne boss Lady Maria and an associated trophy. That's on top of Bloodborne costumes as a pre-order bonus for the new game.

Of course, this led to speculation from Bloodborne fans that something was afoot. Alas, it appears that's not the case.

"There's no secret meaning,"

Team Asobi studio head and creative director Nicolas Doucet told Eurogamer.

"It's just a celebration of the whole PlayStation history."

"Instead of the hardware we put our attention towards the characters,"

he said.

"And that's why we push these cameos. Before they were quite primitive, but now they feel much richer looking. It's over 150 [cameos], so it's going to go really deep and everybody should have their favourite ones."

I will settle for some Gunparade March representation in Astro Bot, Sony.

Bloodborne remaster, sequel AND live action series confirmed!

Half life 3 confirmed!

Got me thinking... So they have 150 cameo skin in the game, sounds likely they'll offer a Gordon Freeman skin as a pre-order bonus for the PC version, or TF2 Soldier.

So Astrobot is the new Sackboy in that regard, which I don't mind a bit. I always liked that element of LBP's design.

Maybe they can do a crossover someday, like a more focused 2D buildformer.

I tend to agree. I am 2 trophies away from platinum but shit was so tedious. The most fun I had in the game was literally doing the parry to that pig under the bridge over and over by fisting it. Gave me a chuckle.

Why did he get banned?, I was always amused by that guys obsession with Kat. Shame

No, he just kept making political threads about Brazil government and elections.
