New Five Nights at Freddy's game with pixel art and side-scrolling gameplay leaks

There's a new Five Nights at Freddy's game in development with retro-inspired pixel art and side-scrolling gameplay, confirmed by series creator Scott Cawthon.

On Tuesday, a trailer for a game called Five Nights at Freddy's: Into the Pit leaked online. The FNAF subreddit (thanks, PC Gamer) was quick to prohibit "all discussions of said trailer will be removed until the trailer is officially released," but Cawthon hopped in the thread and gave his permission to shout about it from the rooftops, if you want.

"No need to keep it all hush-hush. It's okay!" he said. "Yes, I was trying to keep it a secret for a bit longer, but now that it's out, that's fine. This game has been in development for a really long time actually, and I'm really proud of the final product. It will be a 10th anniversary game!"
