It’s time to go back to The Nowhere. Leading video game publisher and developer Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc. today announced LITTLE NIGHTMARES™ III, the sequel in the 12 million+-selling atmospheric adventure franchise, is coming in 2024. Developed by Supermassive Games, the title takes players back to a dark and unsettling world where terrifying creatures and deadly challenges await at every corner. LITTLE NIGHTMARES III will be released on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch™. Find out more about the game and the LITTLE NIGHTMARES franchise on the official website.
LITTLE NIGHTMARES III follows the journey of Low and Alone, two friends looking for a way to escape The Nowhere – a whimsical & nightmarish world. As the two make their way through the Spiral, a cluster of disturbing and dangerous places, such as the Necropolis, they encounter signature elements that have made LITTLE NIGHTMARES so unique, from clever puzzles and dangerous threats to memorable creatures such as Monster Baby.
The sequel adds new variety to gameplay, where each character carries their own iconic item – a bow and arrow for Low and a wrench for Alone – that they will use to help them in their journey. Teamwork also brings a new element to LITTLE NIGHTMARES III. For the first time in the series, players can face their childhood fears with a friend, as the game will be playable in two-player online co-op. The game will be fully playable in single player as well, where players can choose Low or Alone while AI controls the second character.
Also revealed today, the LITTLE NIGHTMARES universe continues to expand with The Sounds of Nightmares, a 6-episode podcast telling an original story. The series follows the story of Noone, a young girl who is committed to the Counties Psychiatric Institute to deal with her ever-worsening nightmares. She is under the care of Otto, the Counsellor, a man who dedicated his life to helping children. As their sessions unfold across the episodes, Otto’s past and Noone’s nightmares seem destined to collide. The first two episodes are available now and can be listened to here: Sounds of Nightmares.
