Steel Wool Studios has announced Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted 2 for PlayStation VR2. It will launch in late 2023.
Get the first details below, via executive producer Ray McCaffrey on PlayStation Blog.
Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted 2 is the PlayStation VR2 sequel to the terrifying VR experience that brought new life to the iconic horror franchise. Improving on the original title, Help Wanted 2 introduces several brand new minigames that bring you face to face with familiar characters and locations from the series’ past. But all is not as it seems in this new job… It’ll be up to you to brave through the horrors to figure out the truth.
Back in 2019, we were so excited to share the first virtual reality Five Nights at Freddy’s game, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted. Since then, we’ve been fortunate to release the virtual reality downloadable content “Help Wanted: Curse of Dreadbear,” the first fully explorable Five Nights at Freddy’s title Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach and we are currently adding another chapter to Security Breach‘s story in the upcoming free downloadable content, “Security Breach: Ruin!” With all this time and experience under our belt we felt it was time to return to virtual reality and create a brand-new game with even more of what fans know, love, and fear.
Help Wanted 2 will feel familiar to players who experienced the first game, but with all new games, locations, story, and animatronics. Do your best to complete your work as fast and as diligently as you can, but be careful. One wrong move at this job can lead to… unexpected consequences. Utilizing the enhanced power and fidelity of PlayStation VR2, this title will be the most immersive, heart-racing Five Nights at Freddy’s title ever. PlayStation VR2 sense controller and headset haptics let players feel every step, rumble, and shake as you race to complete your tasks on time. Virtual reality brings players even closer to the animatronics than ever before, just not too close, they have been known to bite.
Whether you’re a longtime fan of the series or this is your first time working at one of the Pizzerias, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted 2 promises to excite, delight, and terrify you when it releases for PlayStation VR2.
