Astro's Playroom unveiled Lady Maria as one of the hidden Special Bots after the community solved the riddle on a secret capsule in less than three hours.
The studio has been hiding Special bots inside the game which were pre-loaded on every PlayStation 5 console, allowing players to transfer the characters to Astro Bot.
Astro Playroom Launches Treasure Hunt for Special Bots
Last month, the team dropped four Special Bots in the game which players should find by exploring a treasure hunt riddle. The secret capsule was hidden in the GPU Jungle and players must stand on top of a big plan to make the capsule appear.
Players must undergo a tedious process of pausing the game until the Astral Clock screen appears on screen. The passcode turned out to be the original release date of Bloodborne DLC which featured Lady Maria.
Once the capsule opens, Special Bot Lady Maria is finally freed and waiting in the Mission Room. Players can transfer her to Astro Bot once the game is ready.
