In 2017, Zen Studios released "Pinball FX 3", a joint sequel to "Pinball FX 2" and "Zen Pinball 2" that bridged a prior divide between Microsoft and non-Microsoft platforms that existed between the first two "Pinball FX" games and the "Zen Pinball" sub-series, encouraging cross-platform play. This sequel features most tables from its two predecessors, as well as new original and licensed tables. A year after "FX 3" was released, Zen Studios announced that it has recently acquired the rights to develop digital conversions of real-life Bally and Williams pinball tables, a first for the company. Zen then went on to release digital Williams pinball tables as premium add-on content for "FX 3" in waves, as well as a stand-alone free-to-play app on mobile devices that contained a compilation of such tables.
