FNAF Secret of the Mimic release date and when you can find its Easter eggs
Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic is the latest horror romp in the FNAF series, and it's coming sooner than you might think - so when is the release date?
Prepare to enter a new realm of chilling animatronic terror in FNAF Secret of the Mimic, a game that promises to be packed with narrative details and spine-chilling scares.
Are you shocked that Five Nights at Freddy's is still going strong? We certainly aren't. This horror giant, which started as an indie game created on a whim, has become one of the most recognisable symbols in the world of eerie gaming.
It has evolved from a static management simulator with a horror twist into full exploration-based titles similar to Resident Evil and Outlast, setting new standards for indie horrors like Phasmophobia. Its genre-hopping nature means it offers something for everyone, as long as they're prepared to be frightened – and Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic is no exception.
The latest instalment is set in Murray's Costume Manor, a creepy museum of horrors filled with spooky animatronics and shadowy corners hiding even darker secrets. The setting alone is enough to send shivers down your spine, but throw in a new animatronic band and puppet-like husks, and it's sure to scare the living daylights out of us, especially in the optional VR mode on both PS5 and Steam.
The game's release is just around the corner, so we won't have to wait much longer to see how terrifying our journey through the Costume Manor can be. But when exactly can you start playing the game? Here's everything you need to know about the FNAF Secret of the Mimic release date.
FNAF Secret of the Mimic release date
The release date for FNAF Secret of the Mimic has been set for Friday, June 13 at 6pm local time worldwide, excluding US territories outside the East Coast, as confirmed by the game's PlayStation store page.
For US territories, the 6pm launch time remains fixed for the East Coast, while other regions will see the game debut when it hits 6pm EST in their area, translating to 3pm PDT / 5pm CDT on the West Coast and central zones.

Please refrain from revealing any Easter eggs, as we all know how crucial that is to the FNAF community. Just join the rest of us in getting a good scare.
