The original game was an absolute blast to play, and I can hardly wait to dive back into its terrifying world.

The long-awaited sequel to “Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted”, titled “Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted 2“, has officially been revealed for Xbox gaming systems. The anticipated launch date is fast approaching, scheduled for December 3, 2024. Originally designed as a virtual reality exclusive, the standard version of this game will now be available for Xbox users to enjoy.

First introduced for Meta Quest and PlayStation VR2, the non-VR version of “Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted 2” was also launched on PS5 in June 2024. The game offers a collection of 40 mini-games, with 80 items to discover and six hidden challenges to conquer. It delves deep into the backstory of the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” universe.

Approximately six months following the distribution of PlayStation 5’s non-VR version, Steel Wool Studios has revealed on Twitter that the game will also be available for Xbox consoles starting December 3. The announcement does not specify whether it will be compatible with Xbox One or only the Xbox Series X|S, but since there is no playable version for PlayStation 4 yet, it’s likely restricted to current-generation Xbox systems. This development provides Xbox gamers an opportunity to uncover more mysteries hidden within the lore of Five Nights at Freddy’s.
