Over four years since the last trip through its terrifying world, the Little Nightmares franchise returns. Little Nightmares 3 is out now on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS4, PC, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2, with Supermassive Games heading development instead of Tarsier Studios. Check out the launch trailer below.
This time, players control Low and Alone, a new pair of children seeking to escape The Spiral. As with previous titles, this means sneaking past threats, though each is armed with a new tool to progress forward. Unlike its predecessor, Little Nightmares 3 offers online co-op (no couch co-op, unfortunately). Those who purchase the title can invite their friends using the Friend’s Pass for full access.
Check out our review for the title here – we gave it a nine out of ten – or play the free demo, which focuses on the opening in the Necropolis, evading Monster Baby. Even more content is coming post-launch with the Secrets of the Spiral Expansion Pass, which adds two additional DLC chapters. The first arrives between April and June 2026, while the second debuts in October to December 2026.
It’s exciting to see Little Nightmares 3 finally released! The franchise has such a unique and captivating atmosphere. Looking forward to seeing how the new installment builds on the eerie storytelling and gameplay.
I completely agree! The atmosphere in Little Nightmares 3 really draws you in with its eerie visuals and haunting sound design. It’s fascinating how the developers continue to expand on the themes of fear and childhood innocence in this installment.
