Bandai Namco Entertainment has announced that Little Nightmares II Enhanced Edition will be released on Nintendo Switch 2 next month.
This new edition will deliver “higher resolution and improved visual effects compared to the Nintendo Switch version.”
In the sequel, you play as Mono, a young boy who is trapped in a world that has been distorted by the humming transmission of a distant tower.
He soon meets Little Nightmares protagonist Six, who guides him as they set out together to discover the dark secrets that shroud The Signal Tower and save Six from her terrible fate.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Work Together Or Die Alone: You play as Mono, the boy travelling with Six, his enigmatic companion. Although they never knew each other before their story began, they must find a way to cooperate as they try to survive the terrors and secrets of the Pale City. Mono can call Six to summon her, but she is also quite independent and observant. Pay attention to her cues and work together to open hidden trapdoors, climb giant furniture, and, if you’re feeling a little scared, hold hands as you both navigate a world never meant for children.
- Stay Hidden To Stay Alive: The Residents of the Nowhere are enormous, implacable adults like the Teacher or the Hunter who stalk any child Visitor foolish enough to catch their attention. When they’re around, it’s vital to remain quiet and out of sight, or your end will be quick and unpleasant.
- Run For Your Life: At times, hiding won’t be enough. If a Resident is chasing you, you’ll have to run as fast as you can, clambering over any obstacles in your way. Maybe you’ll be able to stay alive long enough to find a place where the danger can’t reach you… for now.
- If You Can’t Run And You Can’t Hide, You Have To Fight: Mono is strong-willed when he has to be. If you’re trapped with an enemy, look for something you can swing to fend them off. It’s tough work for such a little kid, so time your attacks carefully. You won’t get a chance to make the same mistake twice…
- Find The Signal: Mono is the only one who can stop the ominous Thin Man, the Resident who seems to be the source of the Signal, luring him into the heart of the city. Find the courage to confront your nightmares, and just maybe both Mono and Six can get out of this alive.
Little Nightmares II Enhanced Edition will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch 2 worldwide on 29 May 2026.
