Today, the newest game in the series, Little Nightmares III, arrives for Xbox Series X | S, Xbox One, and Xbox on PC as an Xbox Play Anywhere title. And for the first time, you’ll be able face your childhood fears with a friend thanks to the online co-op feature.Low and AloneYou’ll play as Low and Alone, two children trapped in a world they’re desperate to escape. They know each other so well, they can practically communicate without words.They’ve discovered a way to travel through certain mirrors that send them to different areas, but each one is far apart and there’s no going back once they’ve tumbled out.To help you find your way through the horrors of Little Nightmares III, here’s a quick guide to the locations you’ll explore as Low and Alone make their way deeper into the Spiral – a cluster of disturbing places – in your search for a way out of the Nowhere.The NecropolisA massive, ancient city in the middle of a windswept desert, the Necropolis used to be home to the Dwellers. Now, it seems that nothing remains of them except ruins and a few strange statues scattered about.Here, you’ll find feather umbrellas that will allow Low and Alone to ride the updrafts that turn the remaining windmills that power the city.Hidden among the clay urns and complex machinery are the hives of Beetles, enormous insect threats that must be shot down by Low’s arrows and crushed with Alone’s wrench.The Necropolis is a massive playground for Monster Baby; you’ll need to stay out of her eager clutches or you’ll both become her little toys…The Candy FactoryThis smoking behemoth of a factory is the domain of the Supervisor, who oversees production of an endless supply of sticky, sickly sweets. From her nest of surveillance monitors, she watches over the endless maze of machines, ready to snatch any interlopers who would dare to put grit in the gears.In the bowels of the facility where her cameras don’t reach, hordes of parasitic Candy Weevils have massed to feed on the remains of old stock. In spite of their name, they’re not picky and they’ll swarm anything that gets in their way, so you’ll need to find ways to use light to keep them at bay.The production line is manned by the Herds, barely sentient workers who think only of their next vacation. They’re too bored witless to notice that there’s a special ingredient in every hunk of sugary delusion that comes off the conveyor belt.The Vault of CuriosityThis sprawling museum seems to be a collection of trinkets and history from all across the Nowhere. Its original curators have vanished without a trace, with no lights remaining, leaving only a simple flashlight to guide your way through the dust and spiderwebs.Here you’ll see some familiar faces if you’ve survived other games in the series. A small collection of Nomes now inhabit the nooks and crannies of the Vault. If they know who made this place, they aren’t talking.You can explore other mysteries about the Nowhere here, if you can solve the strange puzzles that lock parts of the museum away from visitors.Perhaps this was once a sideshow attraction, now left to rot by the restless audience of…The CarnevaleAll the fun and frivolity the Spiral can afford is here on the rainy boardwalks of the Carnevale. This creaking, clattering collection of carnival rides and games is host to those members of the Herd to have survived to reach their day off from the Factory.Sadly for them, it’s not all fun and games. With their senses distracted by the flickering lights and sugary snacks, no one notices when their members are ruthlessly culled by all manners of midway mishaps and dragged off to a sinister end.Low and Alone will have to avoid these hapless rubes as well as the malicious Puppets who run the stalls along the main thoroughfare. Those tiny terrors don’t appreciate anyone who distracts their marks, and they’re not afraid to give any interlopers the old heave-ho.All of these wooden carnies work alongside the Kin, the ringmaster of the show. Both the main attraction and its true beneficiary, the Kin lives through his audience. He captures Low and Alone to add to his array of freaks, and they’ll have to work together to avoid dying on the stage.The InstituteAt the heart of the Spiral, there is a distortion. An unreal reality that lives crouched in the depths of the jungle. When Low and Alone arrive there, it is an old, decrepit and abandoned institute. This place is like a well-known face seen through a dark mirror – only barely recognizable.The jungle has wound its way into the veins of the facility: beautiful and deadly carnivorous flowers lurk among the invading foliage, waiting to snap their tendrils around any tender neck that wanders by.The original staff of the hospital aren’t going to succumb without a fight, though. Attentive Nurses still occupy the more intact portions of the campus, still waiting for someone to treat.A greater menace lurks somewhere even deeper within the dank passageways. But to learn more, you’ll need to survive the experience for yourself.Play The Nightmare TodayThis is only the start of your adventures together in the Nowhere.
