Five Nights at Freddy’s: RUIN, FREE Security Breach DLC Coming July 25th!

Hey folks! The time has come! Ruin will be available on the PS4, PS5, and PC on Tuesday, July 25th at 12am PST! Ruin is a new story that follows a little girl named Cassie as she searches the crumbling Pizzaplex for her friend, Gregory.

Since you’ve all been so patient and we’ve got a couple weeks left I want to give you all a sneak peek of what you can expect from this free DLC.

First, its tone is a stark contrast to that of Security Breach. Our goal was to lean into a more familiar feel Freddy’s fans have come to expect, and in that effort we’ve created DLC that’s far more dark, dreadful, and ominous than the base game.  Additionally, given the dilapidated state of the Pizzplex, it’s claustrophobic and littered with the ambiance that naturally (and unnaturally) comes from an abandoned building. There aren’t a bunch of massive, well lit areas where you can see and avoid a threat in the distance.

In addition to the tonal shift, we’ve also moved away from the hide and seek gameplay of the base game. Ruin’s moment to moment is built around patience and timing. And after thinking long on what we want to share before launch I’m actually going to leave it at that. Our trailer only showed off a small fraction of the fun, and words won’t do the rest justice.

As I said previously, the DLC is going to launch on PS4, PS5, and PC. The Xbox and Switch versions of the DLC will be released at a later date. It was more important to us that we focus on a few specific platforms to give ourselves the time and space to work on what matters most - the game itself. 

I cannot overstate how much the team here appreciates the patience you’ve shown us as we’ve built a game that’s nearly 100% new content. I’ve said it before and I’ll repeat it forever - without all of you we can’t do what we love, so from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us make our games what they are today.This is a massive year for FNAF, so expect to hear more from us in the near future about our upcoming plans.

Thanks!
