Available for wishlisting now, this new installment touted as being “the darkest and most terrifying chapter” of the saga, with fresh levels, horrifying new characters and unexpected twists in the narrative that “pushes the franchise’s lore to uncharted depths.”
“As we continue the epic story of Poppy Playtime, our lore goes deeper, introducing both helpful and harmful characters, greater risks as players uncover more of Playtime Co., and more extreme horror elements that create new scenarios players must survive making Chapter 4 the scariest of the franchise,” said Seth Belanger, Co-founder and CCO of Mob Entertainment.
