Latest Steam announcements

  • FNAF Secret of the Mimic release date, news, and details - 13 August 2024

    When is the FNAF Secret of the Mimic release date? Five Nights at Freddy's is one of the most well-known and well-loved horror game series of all time, and it just keeps on coming. There are mainline games, spinoff games, toys, VR games, and a movie series now, and, almost ten years to the day since the franchise's debut, another official spin-off horror game was announced. Secret of the Mimic is an officially licensed FNAF game from Steel Wool studios which previously released Security Breach and VR game Help Wanted. The latest installment in the Five Nights at Freddy's series is presumably entirely cannon like previous Steel Wool games, but is set to deep dive into an all-new set of characters. As we look forward to the Secret of the Mimic release date, here's what we know about the horror game so far. Read the rest of the story... RELATED LINKS: Unique new FNAF that twists the horror…

  • Unique new FNAF that twists the horror formula is blowing up on Steam - 10 August 2024

    Have you ever wondered what FNAF would be like if it were a spooky retro adventure game? Well, you can now as Five Nights at Freddy's: Into the Pit trades the series' norms for a uniquely story-driven experience and has done so to great effect, debuting with 'overwhelmingly positive' reviews on Steam after just a few days.

    The moment all Five Nights At Freddy's fans have been waiting for is finally here. The first official teaser trailer for the Five Nights At Freddy's movie has dropped, and everything shown thus far seems shockingly true to the horror game franchise's source material.

  • FNAF and Stranger Things meet in new Steam horror game, with a twist - 17 April 2023

    I love the original Five Nights at Freddy's (or FNAF as it's affectionately known) largely because of its simplicity. One location, one week, one screen - you get a terrific sense of where you are and why, and it makes the whole game really sing. Mix that with the '80s retro-tech flair of Stranger Things - floppy-discs, CRT monitors, pixelscript - and some bloody, first-person combat a la Resident Evil Village, and the result is Suffer The Night, a new Steam horror game with a smart, metatextual (a-thank you) twist.

  • Days after Trump donation controversy, FNAF creator announces retirement - 17 June 2021

    Five Nights at Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon has announced he is retiring, just days after a controversy erupted over his past donations to Republican candidates, including Donald Trump . Cawthon confirmed his decision in a statement shared to ScottGames.com , accompanied by Five Nights at Freddy's artwork drawn by an unnamed eight-year-old fan. There's no mention of the controversy in his statement, save for a reference to him receiving support from the LGBTQ community - a nod to the recent criticism faced by him for supporting Republican candidates with broadly anti-LGBTQ stances.

  • The Five Nights at Freddy's movie starts filming next year - 22 November 2020

    The movie adaptation of Scott Cawthon's horror series, Five Nights at Freddy's, has moved into full production. In a lengthy post shared on the FNAF Reddit page, Cawthon updated fans with the latest details from the movie project, ominously entitling the update "Bad news about the FNAF movie :(". "Before we get to the bad news concerning the state of the Five Nights at Freddy's movie, I wanted to share a brief history of the FNAF screenplay," Cawthon wrote (thanks, PCGN ). "It's been a long road, so let's take a look at some of the screenplays that have come and gone over the years, in no particular order." Read more

  • Five Nights At Freddy's movie shooting in spring 2021, screenplay "has a great central story" - 22 November 2020

    The Five Nights At Freddy's movie is not only still happening, it's finally moving into full production. The film will shoot early next year, using a screenplay the horror game 's creator says has "all the right" characters, motivations, and stakes. In a post on Reddit , Scott Cawthon, the developer of the mainline Five Nights At Freddy's games and overseer of the Freddy's franchise, gave an update on the movie's progress. Titled "Bad news about the FNAF movie", he ran through all the iterations of the script, before landing on a plot twist that the bad news is really good news, because a shooting draft is finished, and cameras roll spring 2021. The list of iterations for the adaptation of the survival game contains some very Hollywood choices. Some, like 'Plushies Take Manhattan', where the Freddy's animals took Manhattan, and one where it transpired the robots were being made for the…

  • The best creepypasta games that will haunt your nightmares - 10 October 2020

    Creepypastas are ghost stories that have spawned from the twisted collective imagination of the internet. They've been around since the beginning of the web, and offer some of the scariest and weirdest stories you can read - this will come as no surprise to you if you've ever tumbled down a YouTube or Reddit hole at 2am. We share your terrified pain. Some of the biggest games and many of the most unexpected cult hits have taken influence from this creepy side of the internet. Heard of Slender Man? SCP? Jeff the Killer? Sonic.exe? Lavender Town? These are all Creepypastas that have managed to permeate the internet and, in some cases, even leak out of the digital realm and into popular culture at large. For those of you that want to delve into some of the weirdest, strangest, and darkest games you can play on PC, we have a list of the best Creepypasta games. Be warned, however - you'll ne…

  • Five Nights at Freddy's creator is helping fund and release fangames - 23 August 2020

    The creator of horror game series Five Nights at Freddy's has started an initiative to fund and release fangames. A number of creations by rookie developers are being supported through the cause, which will hopefully get them a wider release, too. In a Reddit post (cheers, Eurogamer ), Scott Cawthon, the main developer behind the survival games explained the impetus behind the Fazbear Fanverse Initiative, and outlined what it's offering to collaborators. "It's a giant collaboration involving several fangame creators who have made some of the most popular fangames over the years here in the community," Cawthon explained. "It's a project that's designed to invest into those franchises, give back to the developers, and hopefully bring new entries to those franchises as well!" As of now, the initial lineup includes Five Nights at Candy's 4, The Joy of Creation: Ignited Collection, a re-imag…

  • Horror phenomenon Five Nights at Freddy's is getting a "AAA" game, console ports progressing - 12 November 2018

    Scott Cawthon, creator of the phenomenally popular Five Nights at Freddy's series of horror games (and novels!) has unleashed a veritable heap of new updates on the franchise, including early details of a new "triple-A" game, further news on console ports, and more. First things first (as outlined in a very busy blog update over on Steam ), Cawthon confirmed that the Five Nights at Freddy's console ports, as unveiled in August, are still in the works. Cawthon originally announced console versions of the series back in 2016, only to later cancel them "due to concerns about the deal", so their continued existence this time is encouraging. These newly announced HD ports of the original Five Nights at Freddy's games are being handled by developer Clickteam and are currently, according to Cawthon, about 20% complete. The finished versions will be heading to Switch, Xbox One, and PS4, and wil…

  • Home Alone, Harry Potter director Chris Columbus is helming the Five Nights at Freddy's movie - 13 February 2018

    It's been a while since the long-in-gestation Five Nights at Freddy's movie appeared to be any closer to reaching the big screen, but there finally seems to be movement; Home Alone and Harry Potter director Chris Columbus is now confirmed to be helming the film adaptation. A Five Nights at Freddy's movie was first touted back in 2015, when Warner Bros. revealed that it had acquired the rights to produce a film adaptation of the mindbogglingly popular horror game property. At the time, producer Seth Grahame-Smith said that the studio was looking to make "an insane, terrifying and weirdly adorable movie" in conjunction with original game creator Scott Cawthon. However, in January last year, Cawthon posted to Steam announcing that due to "several delays and roadblocks, some involving problems within the movie industry as a whole", the Five Nights at Freddy's movie was "back at square one."…

  • There's a new Five Nights at Freddy's masquerading as a pizzeria sim - 5 December 2017

    Five Nights at Freddy's developer Scott Cawthon has released a new game, named Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator. On the surface, it's a retro-themed tycoon game where you run your own pizza restaurant. But, as players have discovered, it's actually something more sinister. Yes, just five months after placing the FNAF franchise on hold and cancelling FNAF 6 , it sounds like Cawthon has brought back the hugely-popular YouTube-baiting jump scare horror franchise.

About this game

Welcome to your new summer job at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, where kids and parents alike come for entertainment and food as far as the eye can see! The main attraction is Freddy Fazbear, of course; and his two friends. They are animatronic robots, programmed to please the crowds! The robots' behavior has become somewhat unpredictable at night however, and it was much cheaper to hire you as a security guard than to find a repairman. From your small office you must watch the security cameras carefully. You have a very limited amount of electricity that you're allowed to use per night (corporate budget cuts, you know). That means when you run out of power for the night- no more security doors and no more lights! If something isn't right- namely if Freddybear or his friends aren't in their proper places, you must find them on the monitors and protect yourself if needed! Can you survive five nights at Freddy's? "For all the simplicity of the game’s controls and premise, Five Nights at Freddy‘s is frightening. It’s a fantastic example of how cleverness in design and subtlety can be used to make an experience terrifying. Simple still images and proper character design steal the show in this game, and show that Scott Cawthon knows quite a lot about the secret fears people feel when looking at creepy dolls and toys. It’s elegant in how it sows fear, and is a must-own for anyone who likes scary games." -Joel Couture This game was created using Clickteam Fusion!

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $4.99
  • Highest observed: $4.99

Five Nights at Freddy's's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $4.99, the highest is $4.99, and the first visible tracked price is $4.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Five Nights at Freddy's's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $4.99, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $4.99. The latest run records $4.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $4.99
  • Current list price: $4.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Five Nights at Freddy's at $4.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
