FuturLab has confirmed that both of PowerWash Simulator's free Square Enix crossover packs - the Final Fantasy VII Midgar Special Pack and the Tomb Raider Croft Manor Pack - are coming off every storefront at 3pm BST / 10am EST on May 19, 2026. That's a four-day window from today for anyone who hasn't already claimed them. Once they're gone, new players will no longer be able to add them to their libraries, no matter how much they're willing to pay. Existing owners keep permanent download access.
The reason is contractual rather than commercial. FuturLab's publishing partnership with Square Enix officially expires in June, and both crossover packs - the licensed Midgar pack from March 2023 and the licensed Croft Manor pack from late 2023 - are tied to that arrangement. Without an extension, the licensing rights revert and the storefront listings have to come down.
What's actually in the Midgar pack
The Final Fantasy VII Midgar Special Pack is the bigger of the two losses. It bundles five levels built around the geography of Midgar as established by the FFVII Remake: Tifa's Seventh Heaven bar, the Hardy-Daytona motorcycle, the Shinra Hauler truck, the Scorpion Sentinel boss machine, and the Air Buster boss machine all turn up in their post-fight grime so you can scrub them clean while a mini-campaign of in-game text messages plays out between Cloud, Tifa, Barret, and Aerith.
It's also the only Final Fantasy crossover on the market right now that lets you scour the Scorpion Sentinel's plates from the inside, which is a sentence that probably shouldn't make sense but does after about thirty seconds with a pressure washer in hand. Tetsuya Nomura himself spent a public press cycle playing through it on the FFVII team's social channels back at launch.
The Tomb Raider pack covers Croft Manor
The Tomb Raider Croft Manor Pack is the smaller package but it's still meaningful: it adds a faithful rendering of the manor's exteriors and grounds, plus several of Lara's vehicles and indoor staging areas. Both the PS5 and PS4 entitlements are getting delisted in tandem, and the situation is identical on Xbox Series, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
How to claim before the cut-off
On Steam, both packs sit on dedicated DLC pages attached to the base PowerWash Simulator app - you don't need to own the base game to claim them, just have a Steam account that's logged in. Hit "Add to Library" before the deadline and the entitlement is yours forever, even if you only buy the base game years later. The PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, and Nintendo eShop all behave the same way for their respective accounts: you can claim the entitlement on a free account today and bind it to whichever copy of the base game you eventually pick up.
The smart move for collectors is to claim on every platform you might ever play on. Each store treats the entitlement as account-bound rather than license-pool-bound, so a single Steam claim does nothing for a future PS5 purchase. Cross-claim, then forget about it.
Why the timing matters
The end of FuturLab's Square Enix run also reframes the studio's bigger plate. PowerWash Simulator 2 is now live as its own Steam title with App ID 2968420, and FuturLab is leaning into its own original collaborations and IP from here on - the SpongeBob, Warhammer 40K, and Shrek packs all stay in the catalog because they're not part of the expiring Square Enix arrangement, and the studio has signalled that PowerWash Simulator 2 will use its launch year to seed new partnerships rather than carry the old ones forward.
For Final Fantasy fans the deeper sting is that there's no equivalent Midgar content currently planned for PowerWash Simulator 2. The Square Enix relationship is closing, not migrating. So if you ever wanted to wash the Shinra Hauler and you don't already own it, the next four days are the last opportunity to lock it down. Anyone reading this in the EU should set a reminder for 3pm BST on May 19 - that's the literal kill switch on the listing.
The original PowerWash Simulator remains for sale at full price on every platform, and that base game is unaffected by the delisting - it's only the Square Enix-licensed DLC packs that are coming down. The free SpongeBob, Warhammer 40K: Boltgun, Back to the Future, Tomb Raider, and Shrek packs were always a key reason the game built such a long tail of word-of-mouth players. Two of them are about to stop being free, and not in a paid sense - they're about to stop being available at all.
