The title has been a PlayStation exclusive since launch, with regular updates and seasons for dedicated players who jumped into the game from the get-go.

Foamstars Goes Free

Players with or without a PlayStation Plus subscription can soon jump straight into the game to get into the sudsy fun for absolutely no entry charge. Players who downloaded Foamstars before the free-to-play transition can continue their soapy adventure with no disturbances to their playtime, but they will receive a free "Legacy Gift" to enhance their experience, which includes 12 exclusive color-variant Bubble Beastie skins, one exclusive Slideboard design, and one title: "Legacy." More details on how to obtain the Legacy Gift to come soon.

Golden Beats

In Golden Beats, players can look forward to the debut of new Foamstar, Bublo, and two new seasonal events, including Ranked Party, where players compete to climb the ladder of one of the seven ranked modes with teams or solo and Extreme Party, which features multiple events, all with special rules! With a Golden Beats Season Pass, players will receive Bublo, as well as the Ramzey foam gun skin, and the Coiff Guy character skin for free. Players can also obtain XP by completing battles, missions, and Weekly Challenges to advance through the season tiers and earn various rewards, such as additional skins and items. Players who purchase a Premium Season Pass, which is available for $5.99, will unlock even more rewards as all rewards up to each player's current tier will be unlocked immediately.
