Foamstars Transitions to Free-to-Play Model
Square Enix has announced that its multiplayer shooter, Foamstars, is now adopting a free-to-play format. This transition allows players to enjoy the four-player team-based melee game on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 without requiring a PlayStation Plus subscription, as confirmed in an official update from the company.
Exclusive Rewards for Early Adopters
If you had previously purchased Foamstars, Square Enix will reward you with a complimentary “Legacy Gift.” This package includes twelve unique color-variant Bubble Beastie skins, an exclusive Slide Board design, and a special “Legacy” title. To learn how to claim your gift, be sure to check the official website and follow their social media channels for updates.
A Unique Gameplay Experience
Foamstars, which launched earlier this year on Sony’s latest consoles, combines elements of third-person multiplayer battles with innovative gameplay mechanics. The game draws inspiration from popular titles like Fortnite, incorporating homebase building features alongside the vibrant multiplayer action reminiscent of Nintendo’s Splatoon. Players utilize foam mounds to create terrain that enhances mobility or provides strategic high ground for attacking opponents.
