Don’t face your nightmares alone; two is better than one. Something to think about in the sequel of the Adventure-horror/puzzle-solving game Little Nightmares 2: this new game scheduled to be released in November 2021. This game is not for kids, only above the age of 12, and can handle some frequent horror elements and scary images. You will not be playing as Six, the girl in the yellow raincoat from the previous game who escaped The Maw, an underwater traveling island. See image.

Instead, you are in new territory and will be playing a new character named Mono, a young boy trapped in the city, and is not controlled by the signal tower.

The Signal Tower

New Character; Mono

Mono wears a brown trench coat and a brown paper bag on his head. And has a unique ability to travel through TV screens to be transported to another place in the city with a simple touch. Unfortunately, this makes him a target for the main villain, who goes by the name—the broadcaster, who happens to have the same ability as Mono to travel through TVs. When you see this villain, he looks very much like The Thin Man from Little Nightmares. The thin man is seen in the beginning. He is the man who used a chair to hung himself, and Six uses the chair to exit the room.

In this new game, Mono and Six team up to work together to fight off enemies and solve mind-boggling puzzles to help them navigate through the dark city controlled by a signal tower. Of course, this is no ordinary tower. The signal tower is believed to be why the world of little nightmares is distorted, damaged, and rotting from the inside. And could be the reason Six is fading and needs Mono to be her only beacon of hope. From what the trailers show on the Bandai Namco website, you can see the town people’s faces distorted from looking at the broadcast on the TV’s, putting them in a zombie mind-controlling state. Could it be that the signal tower is using the spirit energy of imprisoning souls of people and memories? This can be seen in a clip when Mono and Six are in a Hospital, and when Mono flashes a light in a dead-end corner, there is an entity or a ghost of a child that is fading and is glitching like a damaged TV Screen. Almost like the ghost child is trapped and cannot cross-over to rest-in-peace.

The villains in this new game are even bizarre and downright scary; the first one you encounter is the hunter.

The Hunter, the first encounter

he loves taxidermy and wears a sack on his head with one open hole to see out of. He lives and hunts in the forest. Inside, his home looks like a slaughterhouse. If you look closely in the background, you can see some connections from the previous game. One of them that stands out is images of the all-seeing eye. (The all-seeing eye acts like a surveillance camera, with a yellow light that you turned to stone if you are flashed with it. But in this game, they are just drawings. It makes you think, are the eyes linked to the signal tower?). There are dead bodies of adults and children stuffed in bags, and they have been all skinned. (maybe the skin is used to make masks for the Maw?) and pictures on the wall displaying some of the other characters from the Maw and The Nest. You have to go through this house to rescue Six; you may not recognize her at first because she doesn’t have her yellow raincoat; it’s not clear why she doesn’t have the raincoat.

These mannequins will kill you unless you shine your flash light on them.

Inside the hospital, you come across something that looks like it came straight out of Frankenstein; there are severed hands that come alive the minute you walk near them.

Not to mention Mannequins with human flesh attached to them, and they walk around and will go after you. The only way to stop them is to shine your flashlight. It gets worst because the main boss is the doctor, a wormlike obese person who can hang from a ceiling. As a doctor, you would think he helps the people get better because they go willingly to him.

What does this monster do with the people? It is believed that maybe from what I saw on the trailers and demo playthrough that this monster uses or ships the people’s flesh and organs to make dolls and other mannequins come to life for the Pretender (the Main Boss from Very Little Nightmares) and The Lady (the Main Boss from Little Nightmares). In this world, Mono and Six will have to summon the courage to face new threats and a collection of scary, evil, and unknown, little nightmares.

Below is a video gameplay demo for Little Nightmares 2 that was checked out by YouTuber SuperHorrorBro Mike. Mono and Six are set in the hospital level and they must battle reanimated hands, flee from living mannequins and sneak past even greater dangers in the depths of a creepy hospital. Will Mono and Six escape in one piece?
