The vapid and sometimes exhausting Five Nights at Freddy’s community collectively lost their minds when its creator, Scott Cawthon, cancelled the sixth planned game in the series.

When Cawthon cancelled the game, he said “maybe I’ll try my hand at a pizzeria tycoon game,” a remark most people thought was a joke. It seems like he’s actually making that game.

The above image was posted to Cawthon’s website, which shows an 8-bit Freddy, a equally pixelated pizza pie, and what is probably the game’s official title: Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Simulator.

While that’s all he posted on the site, a new Steam update for the latest game in the series, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Sister Location, has Cawthon teasing a new game:

“In gaming-related news, I REFUSE to let an entire year go by without a game release, so I’m putting together something fun for all of you for the holidays. I’m not sure if I’ll release it on Steam or Gamejolt yet, but I’ll let you know. Hopefully it won’t take much longer to wrap it up.”

That’s all we have to go on for now regarding a potential new game, but it’s also hard to tell whether or not this isn’t just another way for Cawthon to poke at his fanbase to see their reaction.

Cawthon also talked up the potential movie for the series.

“I know that I promised movie news soon, but I guess that news will have to wait. It had to do with an exciting cast/crew addition, but things are not quite finalized yet so I’ll give that some more time,” he said.
