An announcement trailer has revealed that the game launches on Sony&#8217;s console&#8217;s on February 6. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We got a taste of the game last year thanks to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/foamstars-hosting-open-beta-party-later-this-month\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the open beta<\/a> which ran from September 29 until October 1, and it was generally well-receieved. You&#8217;d be forgiven for confusing the Square Enix-produced open world beta with Nintendo&#8217;s <em>Splatoon<\/em> franchise, as both games feature players making a colorful mess. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, <em>Foamstars<\/em> presents itself as a more action-packed party with options to fight solo or team up in 4&#215;4 battles. The foam isn&#8217;t there for aesthetic reasons alone. You can also use it to slide on, build with it, and much more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"FOAMSTARS\uff5cRelease Date Announce Trailer\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dzwzpukmEf0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Only time will tell whether this is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/square-enix-foamstars-preview-sgf-2023\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iconic shooter Sony has been searching for<\/a>.
