Little Nightmares 3 release has been delayed into 2025. The game was originally planned for a 2024 launch, but it seems fans of Little Nightmares 3 will now have to wait a little bit longer.

Fans of the unique horror series have been excited about returning to the world of Nowhere in Little Nightmares since the announcement of Little Nightmares 3 at Gamescom last year.

Much to the dismay of fans, this release date has been pushed back.

Little Nightmares 3 Has Been Delayed Into 2025

The Little Nightmares games were originally developed by Tarsier Studios, but after the launch of Little Nightmares 2, Tarsier Studios confirmed that it would no longer be working on the Little Nightmares series. Since then, Supermassive Games has taken over as the sole developer, leaving many curious about the future of the franchise.

It can be said that it’s better to delay a game to deliver a better product, and this is a mantra that most seem to agree with, as fans offer their support to the developers for their decision to ensure it can deliver the best version of Little Nightmares 3 that it can. The statement is closed off with a confirmation that more information regarding Little Nightmares 3 will be revealed later in the summer, ensuring that fans of the series are not going to be left completely in the dark about the future of the game. Supermassive Games is no newbie when it comes to horror games, and its success with cinematic horror titles such as The Quarry, Until Dawn, and The Dark Pictures Anthology bodes well for Little Nightmares.
