Little Nightmares 3 will be the first full game in the series to not feature Six as a playable character, and some fans are struggling to move on.
On August 22, Bandai Namco announced that Little Nightmares 3 is on the way in 2024. The latest instalment in the creepy-cute series feels quite different to its predecessors, and that could be because it's no longer being developed by Tarsier Studios. Instead, Until Dawn and The Dark Pictures developer Supermassive Games has taken the reins and, by the looks of the first trailer, we're in safe hands with the horror studio.
One of the most obvious changes is that this installment of the series won't feature the little girl in the yellow raincoat, Six. So far, Six has been the main protagonist of the first, second, and spin-off games in the Little Nightmares series, so it could take a little time for fans to come around. Most fans are just happy to have a new game to look forward to, especially since it was thought Little Nightmares was over as Tarsier revealed it was moving onto new IP.
There are however a few fans who aren't yet convinced by the new protagonists Low and Alone. Judging from this Reddit post, some players aren't a fan of the two characters' looks, in particular, how complex their designs are compared to Six or Mono. Admittedly, I didn't realize this was a Little Nightmares game when it first appeared during Opening Night Live 2023 due to how different the characters look.
