Little Nightmares III gets official release date as series hits new sales milestone
The Little Nightmares series has grown to become a rather beloved franchise since its initial release back in 2017, spawning a sequel in 2021 – with the 3rd entry set to arrive this year. As part of a recent ‘Little Nightmares Showcase Event’ Bandai Namco officially announced multiple new projects alongside the long-awaited release date for Little Nightmares III.
Though the biggest news from the Little Nightmares showcase was the official announcement of the 3rd entry’s release date (launching on the 10th of October 2025), Bandai Namco also confirmed that the long-awaited Enhanced Edition of Little Nightmares I is scheduled to arrive on the same day.
In an odd move however, anyone who pre-orders the 3rd game will gain “Early Access” to this enhanced edition immediately – with the rest needing to wait until October.
Beyond this, the publisher also unveiled Little Nightmares VR: Altered Echoes. Said to be ‘Coming Soon’ little is known about this project, aside from the fact that it is being developed by Iconik Studio. Though far from the most well known VR studio, the team have released a number of games – most recently Hunting VR.
Finally, Bandai Namco also confirmed that the Little Nightmares series has sold over 20 million copies; not bad for a series which ostensibly consists of just two games so far.
KitGuru says: What did you think of the showcase? Which project are you most excited for? Do you have faith in SuperMassive Games handling Little Nightmares III? Let us know down below.
