Little Nightmares, when it appeared, was a great surprise and instantly became one of the most interesting and attractive games of recent years. Recently, around the time of the series’ sixth anniversary, Bandai Namco Europe revealed some of its numbers.
Bandai Namco Europe announced recently, during the sixth anniversary of Little Nightmares' release, that the series had already reached 12 million units sold.
It is one of the most engaging, unique, exciting and challenging game series in recent years. Much of its success stems from the game's narrative and message. With a very claustrophobic and heavy environment with a sense of impending danger, our characters have to overcome many challenging obstacles, at a slow, but appropriate pace of the game.
The Little Nightmares series has already seen the release of 3 games, starting with Little Nightmares (PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC), produced by Bandai Namco Europe and developed by Tarsier Studios, in 2017. In Little Nightmares, we have to help Six escape From Maw, in an underwater ship full of hideous and dangerous inhabitants.
In 2019, Very Little Nightmares (iOS and Android) came out, a mobile game developed by Alike Studio in which players have to escape from Nest and learn more about the story of Six.
In 2021, Little Nightmares 2 was released (PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, PC), which told the story of Mono, a boy with a paper bag on his head, who meets Six and With her they explore various locations in Pale City, a place distorted by buzzing transmissions from the Signal Tower.
