Delays seem to be the norm when it comes to PlayStation’s exclusive titles, much like the classic pairing of cereal and milk. And while it might be frustrating for eager fans, it’s often for a good cause—ensuring the final product is the best it can be. Such appears to be the case for Fairgame$, the anticipated live-service game that’s now rumored to be pushed back to 2026.
## Insider Reports Suggest PS5’s Fairgame$ Gets Pushed to 2026
In the latest episode of Game Mess Decides, host Jeff Grubb shared some interesting insights about what’s happening with Haven Studios’ much-talked-about heist game. Although the details are still quite murky, Grubb mentioned that Fairgame$ won’t be gracing our screens this year. “No Fairgame$ this year,” he stated. “From what I know, it’s been rescheduled for 2026.”
While the reason behind this delay remains unclear, Grubb has a track record for accuracy, so his claim likely holds weight. However, it’s important to note that Haven Studios hasn’t made any formal announcements yet. We’ll just have to be patient and see how things unfold regarding the new timeline.
Fairgame$ first saw the light of day in 2023 during its reveal, and since then, details have been sparse. That said, Chris Dring, formerly at GamesIndustry.biz, did mention hearing “good things” about this upcoming PlayStation exclusive on an episode of GI Microcast.
When it comes to PlayStation, their efforts in the live-service arena have had mixed results. Although Helldivers 2 was a notable success, the hero shooter Concord is often cited as one of their more significant missteps. This stumble reportedly led to other live-service endeavors being shelved, and Sony seems to be reevaluating projects across all studios as a result. So, only time will tell how Fairgame$ fits into PlayStation’s broader strategy.
