An upcoming horror film gives Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 some huge competition after the original movie’s $291 million success. Five Nights at Freddy’s is one of the biggest horror franchises in the video game industry, and its film debut couldn’t have gone much better. The movie was a massive hit, as Five Nights at Freddy’s broke box office records and made a huge profit, proving that it could transition from the world of gaming onto the big screen. Despite this, its upcoming sequel will have extra competition with the announcement of a new horror film.

Creating fresh concepts in the horror industry can be difficult, but Five Nights at Freddy’s managed to introduce a genuinely unique idea. Turning seemingly innocent children’s mascots into killer animatronics made the franchise feel incredibly unique and launched a plethora of successful games. However, despite only making its big screen debut last year, it already seems like the FNAF sequel has a potential rival. The announcement of an upcoming horror film not only has a similar premise, but it will also transition from gaming into cinema, putting much more pressure on Five Nights at Freddy’s 2.
