PlayStation Plusisn’t off to a bad start this year. In case you missed it, essential tier subscribers can currently grabA Plague Tale: Requiem, Nobody Saves The World,andEvil West. A further 14 games were then addedacross the extra and premium tiers just yesterday. Highlights includeTiny Tina’s Wonderlands - Next Level Edition, Resident Evil 2, Just Cause 3, andVampire: The Masquerade - Swansong. It’s a varied line-up which, hopefully, contains something that should appeal to everyone. Yesterday also saw February’s first free game announced and this one is a real winner. It’s been unveiled thatFoamstarswill land on PlayStation Plusas a day one launch.
Take a look atFoamstarsin action below.
Foamstarsis set to release on 6 February, the same day it’ll join PlayStation Plus. If you’re not familiar withFoamstars, it’s a 4v4 shooter but a shooter absent of bullets. Think Splatoon with foam. Devs say that it should appeal to both tactical and casual players, with three modes available at launch.

There’s the previously announced Smash The Star and Happy Bath Survival. In the former, you’ll have to beat the opposing team’s ‘Star Player’, who’s granted several buffs, whilst defending your own. In the latter, your team will be split in two. Half of the team are inside the arena while the other half are outside, and you’re tasked with taking down the other team’s players.
Then, there’s the newly announced Rubber Duck Party. In this round, players will have to commandeer an enormous rubber duck in order to lure it to their side of the arena. A spin on tug-of-war, I suppose. Foaming the battlefield speeds up traversal and will help you fend off the enemy team.
Foamstarscan be played solo or with friends - and PlayStation Plus subscribers have already responded positively to the news. “I was hoping this would be day one on PlayStation Plus. Looks like my wish was granted. Can’t wait to play it,”wroteone Reddit user,whileanother added, “Let’s go! Really wanted to try this.”
Foamstarswill be joining the essential tier from 6 February to 4 March.
