Foamstars is still around, but in October it won't cost you a penny to play

Remember Foamstars? No...oh. Well, okay, uh, shit, I was really counting on you at least partially remembering it. Foamstars, released in February, is Square Enix ’s PvP PlayStation game featuring colorful characters shooting foam at each other. It wasn’t very good. And now, less than a year after launch, it’s been announced that Foamstars will become a free-to-play game. In June 2023, Square Enix announced Foamstars for PS4 and PS5.

And now, after seemingly not finding an audience, Foamstars is making the predictable leap to free-to-play. On August 27, Square Enix quietly announced plans to transition Foamstars to a free-to-play model. The shift will happen on October 4, which weirdly means that for the next few months people unaware of this news might buy Foamstars even though it will be free later this year. When the shift happens in October, players will no longer need a PS Plus account to play online.
