2025 is shaping up to be a great year for the Little Nightmares franchise. Not only is this unique horror adventure series returning for a third game thanks to developer Supermassive Games, it's also getting a comic book spinoff.
IGN can exclusively reveal the first details about Little Nightmares: Descent to Nowhere, a collaboration between Titan Comics and Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe. First, check out the cover art for the first issue below:
Little Nightmares: Descent to Nowhere is written by Lonnie Nadler (Cable) and illustrated by Dennis Menheere (Etheres), with Damien Worm providing the cover art to issue #1. Nadler is no stranger to the Little Nightmares franchise, as he also serves as the showrunner and lead writer on the scripted podcast series The Sound of Nightmares.
Descent to Nowhere tells a new story set in this horror universe, offering a mystery that spans both the nightmarish realm known as the Nowhere and the Counties. The series will span four issues in total.
“It’s been an incredible journey to distill Little Nightmares into the comic medium; Lonnie and Dennis have packed each panel with depth and deeper meaning, for a twisting mystery that’ll leave you haunted and yearning for the next issue.” said editor Phoebe Hedges in a statement.
Little Nightmares: Descent to Nowhere will be released in 2025. Fans can get an early glimpse of the new series at New York Comic-Con later this month, where Bandai Namco will be handing out preview comics at booth #2319.
Little Nightmares III was among the games featured at gamescom 2024, and it won several awards at the show, including Best Visuals, Best Audio, and Best Xbox game. You can also check out IGN's first preview of Little Nightmares III for more on the upcoming sequel.
