The job listing does however expect the post holder to "provide qualitive support to the Little Nightmares production team by reviewing the game on multiple platforms, make comparative playthroughs, liaise with QA, etc." - meaning a game of some kind is at least in the works.

You may have noticed that we're yet to mention Little Nightmares and Little
