Foamstars udkom tilbage i februar, men ligesom mange, mange andre live services havde det svært ved at bibeholde interesse over en længere periode, og nu hvor spil er så dyre at lave og vedligeholde, så er det ikke alle udgivere der har tålmodigheden til at forsøge at bjerge den synkende skude.
XDefiant lukkes ned om seks måneder, og Foamstars' næste sæson bliver også den sidste. Det har producer Kosuke Okatani bekræftet i et åbent brev til spillere, hvor han dog slår fast at ulig XDefiant vil spillets servere fortsætte med at være live - der kommer bare ikke mere indhold.
"I don't want this to sound like a final message since you will be able to continue playing the game. Since the game's release on February 6, 2024, the development team has been working tirelessly to add new content and features, striving to bring the game as close as possible to that goal. Throughout both the development and operational phases, we have faced many challenges. However, the support of all of you who play the game, along with the incredible fan art, has been a constant source of encouragement for the team. It's because of this support that we've been able to overcome these difficulties, always with the goal of responding to your feedback."
Al indhold fra tidligere sæsoner vil blive gjort tilgængeligt - men præcis hvor længe Foamstars forbliver live vides ikke.
