The latest Five Nights at Freddy’s installment has stormed Steam’s charts, briefly overtaking the highly anticipated Dune: Awakening as the platform’s top-selling game. Five Nights at Freddy’s: Secret of the Mimic launched last week to immediate success, proving the horror franchise maintains its grip on fans more than a decade after its debut. While it has since slipped from the number one spot, its rapid climb demonstrates the series’ enduring appeal.
This newest chapter transports players to Murray’s Costume Manor, where they must uncover the workshop’s dark secrets while evading The Mimic, a shape-shifting endoskeleton capable of transforming into players’ worst nightmares. The game’s description promises tense exploration through shadowy environments where danger lurks behind every flickering light.
Steam’s sales rankings reveal Secret of the Mimic not only dominated purchases but also secured a place among the platform’s top 100 most-played titles shortly after release. This performance underscores how Scott Cawthon’s indie creation has evolved into a lasting cultural phenomenon, far surpassing its original flash-in-the-pan expectations.
Available now on Steam, the game continues the franchise’s tradition of psychological horror blended with strategic survival gameplay. Its ability to compete with blockbuster titles like Dune: Awakening speaks volumes about the dedicated fanbase that has grown around Five Nights at Freddy’s since 2014.
