Hey horror hounds and macabre mavens, if the dark and twisted is what you're into, set your timer for February 18th, because the PC release of Poppy Playtime: Chapter 5 will be creeping onto Steam to steal your soul - or at least your time.

Building off of it's predecesors, Poppy Playtime: Chapter 5 continues to explore the thematic universe of Playtime Co. lab, where The Protoype lurks, stalking through the halls, waiting. Titled "Broken Things", this chapter may be the creepiest venture so far, as players face off, yet again, against the deadly puppetmaster by solving puzzles and overcoming obstacles.

Features Include: 

  • Stomach-churning terrors await you in this new section of the factory as you uncover the dark works hidden within The Prototype’s stomping grounds.

  • In this chilling new layer of the Playtime facility, you will encounter the tortured denizens living in the darkness. They may aid you in your quest to defeat The Prototype, but can they be trusted? 

  • Solve devious puzzles and overcome dangerous environmental obstacles with the power of new GrabPack tools and functionality.

  • As you reach the true rotten heart at the center of Playtime, discover some of the company’s gravest sins.

If you're a fan of horror games, and if broken and creepy toys chill your bones, check out this delightfully terrifying trailer to get a sense of what you're up against - it truly looks delightfully dark and fun!
