How to play the Five Nights at Freddy’s Games in Order
The horror franchise of Five Nights at Freddy, occasionally referred to as FNAF, has exploded in popularity with multiple titles spanning over the years. There are currently nine titles within the franchise, and trying to figure out which ones are canon, which aren’t, and what order to play them in can be difficult.
The good news is that players don’t necessarily need to complete all titles to understand the story of any singular title. For the most part, FNAF titles are self-referential and rarely stray into other titles within the franchise. If you’re looking for the full story arc of FNAF, however, you’ll want a deep dive in a specific order.
