"Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location" is an upcoming game from the successful indie franchise. It will be the fourth, and Scott Cawthon, the game creator, is secretive about his new project. He now wants the game to be covered in mystery.

Any game fan would like to know the development of their favorite game, and "Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location' is no exception to that. Cawthon commented on a Steam community forum when asked if he was planning to show some behind-the-scenes development in his upcoming project.

He replied, "I would enjoy posting more of the development process, but I fear it would take some of the fun and mystery out of the game when it's released. I'm planning on including a lot more material in the extras about the development process for this game. :)"

Many of the game followers would love to get those bits of information while the game is being worked on. Fans mentioned that concept art, storyboard, character models and the office creation were the ones they want to see. However, there are also a few who agreed with Cawthon that the fun would be diminished if he continued to share those pieces of information.

On another Steam community page forum, the game developer mentioned that there will be no more early release dates for the next game.

He said, "No more early release dates. Instead, from now on, if I finish the game early then I'll spend the extra time polishing the game and adding features."

The reason behind this decision is probably the incident that happened when he released "Five Nights At Freddy's World" last January and it was thought to be not as good as the previous titles. He himself was not satisfied with the overall performance of the game, thus, he pulled it out from Steam. Those who purchased the game were given a full refund, and roughly a month after, the game was offered again to the public completely free via Gamejolt, PCGamer previously reported.

"Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location" will probably be the same point-and-click horror survival video game but in another location. The game is expected to be available by October.
