The endless runner Bendy's Nightmare Run is set to return to mobile platforms on August 19. The title, which features the mascot from Bendy and the Ink Machine, will be available on both iOS and Android.
Background of the Return
The game was originally pulled from digital storefronts in the late 2010s. Its initial removal was tied to legal complications involving a collaboration between Joey Drew Studios, KindlyBeast, and Phatmojo. Following a lawsuit between the parties and the subsequent closure of Phatmojo, the game remained unavailable for several years before this week's announcement of its return.
What to Expect
Players can expect the same core endless runner experience that launched in 2018, where players navigate the titular character through obstacles and away from pursuers. While the game returns under a slightly modified title—previously known as Bendy in Nightmare Run—the mechanics remain consistent with the original release.
Specific details regarding potential updates or changes to the game's original build have not been disclosed. Players looking for a refresher on the gameplay loop can refer to existing overviews of the original title.
