5 Weeks Left to Claim PowerWash Sim's Free FFVII Levels

May 19, 2026. That's the date two of PowerWash Simulator's best crossover packs disappear from every storefront permanently. If you own the game on any platform and haven't grabbed the free Final Fantasy VII Midgar Special Pack or the Tomb Raider Special Pack, you have roughly five weeks to fix that.

Developer FuturLab confirmed the delisting on its website, tying the removal directly to the end of its formal publishing relationship with Square Enix. The studio called Square Enix "an incredible partner" but didn't elaborate on what the split means for the original PowerWash Simulator's future beyond these two packs disappearing. FuturLab self-published the sequel, so this likely means publishing rights for the first game revert to the developer once the Square Enix deal wraps up.

The good news: if you've already claimed either pack, you keep it. Redownloads will still work. The bad news: anyone who hasn't hit that download button before May 19 loses access permanently. There's no cost involved beyond owning the base game, so there's no reason not to grab both right now.

What you're actually losing

Each pack contains five levels, and they're among the most memorable in the entire game. The Tomb Raider pack, released in January 2023, lets you pressure-wash Croft Manor locations including the exterior, the hedge maze, and the treasure room. The FFVII Midgar Special Pack followed in March 2023 with locations like Tifa's Seventh Heaven bar, a Mako Energy museum exhibit, the Guard Scorpion, and vehicle displays at Shinra HQ. Both packs feature voice lines from characters in their respective franchises, which gives them a personality that generic levels don't have.

I've spent more time in PowerWash Simulator than I'd probably admit publicly, and the crossover packs are a big part of why. Cleaning the Guard Scorpion is absurd in exactly the way this game thrives on, and the Croft Manor levels scratch a very specific nostalgia itch for anyone who spent hours exploring that place in the original Tomb Raider games. Losing these to a licensing expiration feels like a small but real blow to game preservation, especially when they were free content that cost players nothing to access.

This is also a reminder of what happens when publishing deals expire and licensed content sits in the middle. FuturLab clearly can't keep distributing Square Enix IP once the relationship ends, and Square Enix isn't going to maintain free DLC for a game it no longer publishes. Nobody's the villain here, but the result is still content vanishing from existence. It's the same pattern we've seen with delisted music in rhythm games and expired licensing in racing titles, just on a smaller scale.

PowerWash Simulator is available on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. Both DLC packs are free to claim on all platforms until May 19. According to FuturLab's Steam announcement, the packs will simply stop appearing in storefronts after that date, with no indication they'll ever return.
