Overview
- On Thursday, September 10, Player.gg listed a closed playtest codenamed Project Espresso with a trailer, screenshots and sign‑ups for PlayStation 5 and PC.
- Player.gg describes the title as a third‑person PvPvE game where teams infiltrate high‑security sites, steal cargo and exfiltrate, and the trailer notes the footage is pre‑alpha captured on PlayStation 5 Pro.
- Multiple outlets and social posts quickly linked Project Espresso to PlayStation and Haven Studios’ 2023 heist shooter Fairgame$, with some reporting an unconfirmed internal retitle to Break In.
- Neither Sony nor Haven Studios has confirmed that Project Espresso is Fairgame$ or that the game has been renamed, and some assets circulated online were later removed.
- The test is being watched closely because past internal playtests produced negative feedback and Haven has had leadership changes, so this round could presage a public re‑reveal or further delay or cancellation and should be measured against official confirmation and wider testing results.
