Five Nights at Freddy's Help Wanted 2 Announced for Release This Year
During today's PlayStation Showcase, another new game in the Five Nights at Freddy's series emerged. It appears to be a direct sequel to Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted, and is aptly just called Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2.
We didn't see much in the way of gameplay for Help Wanted 2, likely to preserve the scares to come. But we can draw some clues from the first Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted.
The first Help Wanted game came out in 2019 for VR and later regular consoles, and was a series of mini-games featuring characters and situations from the Five Nights at Freddy's series. The main series of Five Nights games tends to feature players surviving five nights working at Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria while a host of killer animatronics try to sneak into the security room and murder the player, though subsequent iterations have included increasingly complex mechanics and spins on the theme.
Help Wanted 2 promises a brand new series of scary minigames, locations, story, and animatronics. Players are tasked with completing minigames quickly and well, with very violent consequences for messing up.
Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2 is planned for release later this year for PSVR 2. In the meantime, check out our full recap of all the announcements from the PlayStation Showcase.
