Foamstar Is the Persona Splatoon Game We've All Been Waiting For

1 year ago

Foamstar, from Square Enix, was announced at the May 2023 Playstation Showcase.

Foamstar is a 4v4 Foam shooter. The trailer features a cast of colorful characters shooting various brightly-colored foam at each other.

The gameplay is similar to Splatoon, but instead of paint, you and your colorful friends shoot foam at one another. The trailer only showed in-match gameplay, so we don't know if you're going to be able to gather together in a town square to show off weird art to one another.

Rather than both teams racing to cover the entire map in their color of paint, the foam being shot in Foamstars will be used to both attack and change the layout of the map. So, theoretically you'll be able to create cover or alternate ways to traverse the map.

Foamstar doesn't have a release date quite yet, but if you're looking for a Splatoon-like shooter to play on PS5, Foamstar might just be it.
