Poppy Playtime Chapter 2’s release date was hinted at on Steam as April 29 due to a surprise listing that was taken down, and teaser material that was drip-fed to the community made the date seem almost like a foregone conclusion, but the date has already passed with nothing to short for it. Poppy Playtime has seen much success due to its unique horror nature, but despite hints and leaks, Chapter 2: Fly In A Web‘s theorized release date seems to have been a misconception despite all hints pointing towards the day.
Throughout the week leading up to April 29, the MOB Games social media accounts were leading up to the presumed Poppy Playtime Chapter 2 release date with a continuous series of fragmented images. These images acted as a puzzle that seemed to piece together and depicted hints at what may have been coming for the new chapter, but despite making a complete picture, the expected release never materialized.
The official release of Poppy Playtime Chapter 2 has been either silently delayed or otherwise was not scheduled for April 29 as assumed, but the lack of comment from the developer still leaves questions. The Steam leak led much of the player base to believe that they had a concrete date and time to when they would be able to continue the story. MOB Games has not spoken up regarding the confusion over the Poppy Playtime Chapter 2 SteamDB leak.
What To Expect For Poppy Playtime Chapter 2’s Release
The fervor for Poppy Playtime Chapter 2 is still high, perhaps even more so with the assumed release date having passed. With the introduction of Mommy Long Legs as a new factor in gameplay, players will still have to struggle to survive in the factory and try to find their way out of its terrifying depths. With Mommy Long Legs appearing to treat the other toys in the factory like her own children, it will be interesting to see if she ends up being the antagonist players face or if all of these hints are a simple red herring. In either case, with no official word on the release, it may seem like fans will have to continue waiting, but the release date may still be around the corner—given all the teases that have already been dropped on Twitter, it seems likely that Poppy Playtime Chapter 2‘s release date won’t be far off.
Poppy Playtime Chapter 2 will feature more unique abilities for the protagonist to utilize. A new green GrabPack has shown that there will be puzzles involving electrical currents for the player to figure out, much like the previous chapter, but there’s still uncertainty whether Mommy Long Legs is a Poppy Playtime villain. Until a proper release date is given, the best that can be done for now is to keep tabs on the social media updates and teasers to see if MOB Games will make an official announcement within the coming days. Either way, the wait for Poppy Playtime Chapter 2: Fly In A Web shouldn’t be too much longer.
