Although both games look fantastic visually,Reanimal’s reveal trailer emphasizes the creepy monster aspect that made the first two titles so exhilarating.
AlthoughLittle Nightmares 3will undoubtedly be filled with horror, its new footage focuses more on the puzzle-platforming side of the game.
For instance, the trailer forLittle Nightmares 3showcased how one character has a melee weapon and the other a ranged bow and arrow attack. The trailer doesn’t exclusively represent the horror that’s almost certain to be present in abundance,but the new puzzle and player mechanics look fascinating.
