Project Espresso Playtest Trailer Offers Potential New Look at Sony's Fairgames

A trailer for an upcoming playtest under the working title Project Espresso has appeared online, prompting speculation that it showcases Sony's live service multiplayer shooter, Fairgames. Originally announced during a State of Play broadcast years ago, Fairgames has seen little official information since its debut. Reports suggest the project may have also changed its name to Break In.

The video originated via Player.gg, a platform where users can register to playtest unreleased titles. According to the site, Project Espresso is a third-person PvPvE competitive action game. In the game, rival teams race to infiltrate high security locations, steal valuable cargo, and escape before competing players interfere. This description aligns with previously known details regarding Fairgames, which similarly focuses on competitive vault heists.

Footage in the trailer features pre-alpha gameplay captured on a PS5 Pro system. While official confirmation is pending, the emergence of the playtest material indicates that further updates or an official re-reveal could happen in the near future.
