'Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location' latest news: New update expected to fix ending and underused assets

Promotional teaser for Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister LocationScott Games

"Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location" has already launched for PC and mobile devices, and it shakes the series' formula enough by adding new gameplay elements like traveling between rooms and individual evening objectives. However, the game still feels incomplete, and it is said that it might be receiving an update patch soon.

According to The Bitbag, there are several portions of the game that feel like the assets have been underused, which could indicate that developer Scott Cawthon released the game without finishing some of the other rooms or gameplay mechanics.

This means a future update patch might introduce a few new areas for players to explore, and these will all come with their own individual objectives and obstacles. The report points out that there are two portions in the game where the player goes through dark rooms, and new secret entrances to optional rooms may be added in those areas.

Future update patches may also give more resolution to the game's ending. "Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location" is known for its mini-games following player deaths, a secret ending involving Ennard, and how the game might be related to the "Bite of '83." However, the game lacks the puzzle pieces players need to fully comprehend the story.

A possible patch or DLC could further flesh out the details of the story. However, the series is known for its vague approach in telling the narrative that links all the games together, and it is possible that Cawthon will keep the ending and the story pieces vague as they are now.

Additionally, according to Parent Herald, now that the game is finally released, production for the "Five Nights at Freddy's" movie adaptation can continue. It was rumored that the film was delayed because Cawthon had to shift his attention to the spin-off game before he could finish collaborating with the film's director.
