The creators of Little Nightmares I & II have returned to take you on a darker, more terrifying journey than ever before. In this horror adventure game, a brother & sister go through hell to rescue their missing friends and escape the island that they used to call home.

Story

A young brother and sister return to the island where they grew up, only to find it flooded, decayed, and scarred by war. Now overrun with grotesque, monstrous creatures, the ruined home holds their three missing friends somewhere within its horrors. Traveling by boat and on foot through drowned villages, a lonely lighthouse, and a dilapidated orphanage, the siblings must hide from and outwit the nightmarish things that hunt them as they search for their friends and confront the dark secrets of their shared past.

What is happening now

Reanimal is an adventure game from Tarsier Studios released on multiple platforms in February 2026. The studio's spiritual successor to their previous work, the game guides players through what's been described as their darkest setting yet across multiple chapters. The Prisoner, the first part of a three-chapter DLC season called Expanded World, has just launched. This expansion introduces new protagonists - The Prisoner and The Soldier - who must collaborate to survive in a war-torn environment. The DLC includes environmental puzzles, collectibles like masks and posters, and new trophies to unlock. Alongside the expansion, Tarsier and THQ Nordic have released the game's original soundtrack across digital platforms. Some coverage suggests waiting for the complete DLC season before diving in, though players are actively sharing puzzle solutions and collectible guides for The Prisoner's content.
