Square Enix will shift Foamstars to a free-to-play model from October 4, 2024, in an effort to build a stronger player base after sales fell short of expectations.
The transition to free-to-play is a last-ditch effort, as analysts noted that Foamstars did not meet internal targets, indicating a struggle to attract enough players.
As part of the transition, players will no longer need a PlayStation Plus subscription, and a "Legacy Gift" will include exclusive items to encourage new players.
While it remains unclear how many players currently engage with Foamstars, dedicated Discord groups still exist, indicating that a community has formed around the game.
