‘Poppy Playtime’ Brings Its Creepy $5 Horror Game To Xbox This Month

Five Nights at Freddy’s has undoubtedly proved a success on Xbox over the past few years, so it makes sense that Poppy Playtime is now making its debut as well! Better yet, you’ll be able to pick it up for just $4.99 on July 12th.

Specifically, this is Poppy Playtime Chapter 1: A Tight Squeeze, which first arrived on PC and mobile a couple of years ago, followed by Switch and PlayStation releases a few months ago. Described as a “horror/puzzle adventure”, the game has a “Very Positive” rating on Steam, with plenty of favourable comparisons to FNAF. And actually, some people argue that it much closer resembles the popular “Bendy” series of games.

Naturally, considering this is a $4.99 release, you shouldn’t expect anything too crazy here – the main story can be finished in under an hour. On PC, the idea is that the game is split into multiple chapters, but for now we’re only getting Chapter 1 on Xbox… so if you end up liking this one, hopefully the rest of the chapters will follow soon!

We’ll throw more details about Poppy Playtime Chapter 1: A Tight Squeeze down below:

“You must stay alive in this horror/puzzle adventure. Try to survive the vengeful toys waiting for you in the abandoned toy factory. Use your GrabPack to hack electrical circuits or nab anything from afar. Explore the mysterious facility… and don’t get caught.

Playtime Co. was once the king of the toy manufacturing industry… until everybody inside of the factory one day disappeared into thin air. Now, years later, you must explore the abandoned factory and uncover the truth.”
