Little Nightmares 3 review

Little Nightmares 3, developed by Supermassive Games, is set to release on October 10, 2025. Players will navigate nightmarish landscapes, including an industrial candy factory and eerie temples, using characters with distinct abilities—Low with a bow-and-arrow and Alone with a wrench—to solve puzzles and evade threats. The game retains familiar mechanics, allowing character switching while one remains on auto-pilot for cooperative play.
