Is Practical Basketball out?

Yes. Full release has been up since 30 Oct 2026. The listing people were actually in, at the 2 Nov 2026 reading, is ALPHA: 49,701 playing and 107,277,258 visits. OUT NOW showed 2 players and 4,587,773 visits. Open ALPHA if you want the busy server.

How the two listings differ

They are not the same community. ALPHA belongs to Practical's Games, whose owner display name is Alexander and which shows a verified badge. OUT NOW belongs to Practical's Physics V2, whose owner display name is also Alexander, without a verified badge. Treating the empty listing as the only real one misses where the players are.

Listings you cannot open

Place 131865328142040 returns a restricted title and zero visits. Place 131845312811302 is also restricted. A third-party mirror still shows an older title, Practical basketball (Release), credited to eljosisurfriemd, with 200 visits and a public date of 1 Mar 2026. I do not call either place deleted. I call them unavailable, and I do not treat the 200-visit mirror as the game people are playing.

Shutdown searches usually point at the August pause, not a ban. The game came back on 30 Oct. The linked sources do not announce Stress Test 4. The next named step after Stress Test 3 was the full release.
