Foamstars Bids Farewell with Final Season and Nier: Automata Crossover
TL;DR Summary
Square Enix's live-service shooter Foamstars, inspired by Splatoon, is ending its seasonal updates but will keep its servers online for fans to continue playing. Despite its initial release as a free PS Plus game, Foamstars struggled to gain traction and went free-to-play in October. Unlike Sony's Concord, which was quickly shut down, Foamstars will allow players to access past Season Passes and participate in ongoing competitions. Square Enix plans to return to a multiplatform strategy following disappointing sales of recent Final Fantasy titles.
