The ghostly sequel Little Nightmares 2 is around the corner waiting to appear and scare you in February. If you haven’t played its predecessor puzzle platformer yet, don’t worry, you can keep it free until Sunday and give yourself plenty of time to crawl through before the sequel. Bandai Namco also released a terrifying new trailer for the event.
Bandai Namco says that the free download of the original Little Nightmares is available via the Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe store, which I apparently can not elaborate further, so I’m afraid you’re on your own from there. There’s also a pop-up on the main website of Bandai Namco where you can click your email address in ‘for your chance to claim a free copy’ via Steam key, although it’s not so clear if it’s a lottery situation is or the same free offer they have. named. I asked them for some clarity about it and will update if they spell it out for me. In both cases, BandaiNam says the offer is valid from now until Sunday 17 January.
RPS’s Little Nightmares review praises just about everything, from puzzles to visual style to the pace of its horror world that leans more on discomfort than jumping terror. Alice Bee agrees that it was one of her favorite horror games and had a lot to say about her time with the Little Nightmares 2 preview.
“LN2 has all the things I liked about the first game: Lilliputian-like crawling under giant tables and shelves, jumps that feel dangerous because of how small you are, and the excellent sound design of your little slaps and unseen things that mess up rubbish. in the dark, ”says Alice. “The mysteries are still in the vein of finding the right switches to put in the right places, and although Six helps you get into certain rooms, I spent most of my time alone as Mono.”
As of today, there is also a demo for Little Nightmares 2 on PS4, Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch. There is already a demo available on a computer, but if you have not heard, you can try it out on Steam and GOG. This is also where you will find the full game when it launches on 10 February for £ 25 / € 30 / $ 30.
