Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNAF) Canon/Main Series in Order
Since this is the most important one to look at, we’re going to check the main FNAF series in order first.
IMPORTANT!
Five Nights at Freddy’s: Core Collection – FNAF 1 to 4 and Sister Location is available from Amazon here (affiliate link)
1. Five Nights at Freddy’s 1
Released: August 2014. Remastered: July 2019 for iOS and Android.
Plot: Welcome to your new summer job at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, where kids and parents alike come for entertainment and food as far as the eye can see!
The main attraction is Freddy Fazbear, of course; and his two friends. They are animatronic robots, programmed to please the crowds!
The robots’ behavior has become somewhat unpredictable at night however, and it was much cheaper to hire you as a security guard than to find a repairman. From your small office you must watch the security cameras carefully… [Source: Amazon]
2. Five Nights at Freddy’s 2
Released: November 2014. Remastered: October 2019 for iOS and Android.
Plot: Welcome back to the new and improved Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza! In Five Nights at Freddy’s 2, the old and aging animatronics are joined by a new cast of characters.
They are kid-friendly, updated with the latest in facial recognition technology, tied into local criminal databases, and promise to put on a safe and entertaining show for kids and grown-ups alike! What could go wrong?
As the new security guard working nights, your job is to monitor cameras and make sure nothing goes wrong after-hours. The previous guard has complained about the characters trying to get into the office (he has since been moved to day-shift).
So to make your job easier, you’ve been provided with your very own empty Freddy Fazbear head, which should fool the animatronic characters into leaving you alone if they should accidentally enter your office.
3. Five Nights at Freddy’s 3
Released: March 2015.
Plot: Thirty years after Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza closed it’s doors, the events that took place there have become nothing more than a rumor and a childhood memory, but the owners of “Fazbear’s Fright: The Horror Attraction” are determined to revive the legend and make the experience as authentic as possible for patrons, going to great lengths to find anything that might have survived decades of neglect and ruin.
At first there were only empty shells, a hand, a hook, an old paper-plate doll, but then a remarkable discovery was made… The attraction now has one animatronic…
4. Five Nights at Freddy’s 4
Released: July 2015.
Plot: In this last chapter of the Five Nights at Freddy’s original story, you must once again defend yourself against Freddy Fazbear, Chica, Bonnie, Foxy, and even worse things that lurk in the shadows.
Playing as a child whose role is yet unknown, you must safeguard yourself until 6am by watching the doors, as well as warding off unwanted creatures that may venture into your closet or onto the bed behind you.
You have only a flashlight to protect yourself. It will scare away things that may be creeping at the far end of the hallways, but be careful, and listen. If something has crept too close, then shining lights in its eyes will be your end.
RELATED: Did you know that there is also a Five Nights at Freddy’s book series? From the game’s creator, Scott Cawthon, it includes the Five Nights at Freddy’s Novel Trilogy and FNAF Fazbear Frights Anthology Series.

A side-scrolling platform game. Sequel to the Freddy in Space minigame from FNaF world. Free to play on GameJolt in December 2019.
Security Breach Fury’s Rages
Released April 2021, free on GameJolt. Side-scrolling beat ’em up game with the main cast of Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach.
Freddy in Space 3: Chica in Space
Another free game on GameJolt, Freddy in Space 3 is also named FNAF: The Movie: The Game. It is, as the second name suggests, a tie-in game of the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie, and I recommend playing it AFTER watching the said movie, because it’s full of spoilers.
Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit
Released in August 2024, this game charmed me instantly with its pixelated graphics and overall feel. I loved it.
In FNAF: Into the Pit, Oswald’s search for excitement leads him to a mysterious ball pit in a rundown pizzeria that transports him to the past, unleashing unexpected horrors.
Your goal is to survive five nights of relentless terror by time-traveling, gathering clues, and evading the animatronic creatures to save yourself, your father, and children from another era.
Five Laps at Freddy’s
I’m listing it here, since it already has a playable demo released since August 2024. The full game release is set for 2025.
This is a kart racing game featuring characters from the FNAF franchise, and it is developed by Clickteam. I have to admit I’m not the biggest fan of the game, but you might want to give it a try nevertheless.
