Five Nights at Freddy's Into the Pit Releases Early

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, I must say that the unexpected early release of Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit has certainly caught my attention. Being an ardent fan of the series since its inception, I can’t help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. The suddenness of this release, reminiscent of a phantom animatronic springing to life, is both thrilling and disconcerting.


Today, the global launch of “Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit” occurred prematurely, as it was accidentally released before its scheduled release in Japan. This engaging interactive puzzle game with distinctive pixel graphics, developed by Mega Cat Studios, can now be purchased on Steam for $19.99.

ScottGames shared on Twitter that ‘Into the Pit’ was released early in Japan. This means that we can enjoy it sooner! Since it fits perfectly with the style of a Five Nights at Freddy’s game to launch early, they’ve decided to release it worldwide as well.

Into the Pit is available NOW!

(Now we just need to think of something special to do tomorrow!)

In a recent post, ScottGames subtly hinted at an upcoming thrilling launch set for tomorrow. The arrival of “Into the Pit” is one of many surprises planned to mark the tenth anniversary celebration of “Five Nights at Freddy’s”.

“The Mega Cat team expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the community for their extraordinary backing. They made this game with fellow enthusiasts in mind. It’s a joy beyond words, like one FNaF acknowledging another, to witness our passionate fanbase mirroring the enthusiasm we’ve invested in crafting the game.”

Prior to today, no specific release date for “Into the Pit” had been disclosed. However, developers launched a site named “Jeff’s Pizza,” hinting at a June 12th launch. Due to an influx of visitors, the site experienced technical issues and was subsequently closed without a clear reopening timeline. The significance of the June 12th date on the website remains unclear.

As an ardent fan, I can’t help but recall an instance where a premature launch wasn’t exactly the Five Nights at Freddy’s franchise’s finest hour. Last year, there was this unexpected early release of an asymmetrical Roblox game named FNAF: Survival Crew. Unfortunately, it seemed that development was still in its infancy. Series creator Scott Cawthon shared that one of the developers working on the project mistook Cawthon’s approval of a single character skin for the all-clear signal to release the game. The consequence? FNAF: Survival Crew was yanked off within a mere two hours.
