Described as a suspense adventure game, Little Nightmares II doesn’t exactly follow directly in the footsteps of its predecessor. While the first of the series put players in control of Six, this time around you’ll play as Mono, a young boy trapped in a world that has been distorted by an evil transmission. With the aid of Six, you must discover the dark secrets of The Signal Tower and escape the disturbing traps that line this journey. The same sort of twisted aesthetic, oversized bulbous contortions, and creepy dark corners still await but with a new narrative and a dark new musical accompaniment, from Tobias Lilja of Tarsier Studios.
Little Nightmares II is set to land on PC, Xbox One, Playstation 4, and Nintendo Switch on 11 February 2021, with owners of the Xbox Series X/S and the PlayStation 5 consoles getting a next gen upgrade later in 2021. We don’t have an exact date on when the current demo will unlock across consoles but players on PC can jump into what we assume will be a couple of levels of unsettling adventure for new players and old. You can check out more about Litle Nightmares II over on the official Bandai Namco website now.
