Following its launch in 2017, it gained wide praise from the game community mainly for its old animation aesthetic and lore and found it’s self as a part of the rapidly rising mascot horror genre that was first popularized by Five Nights At Freddy’s.
Despite a number of delays and other troubles to its development, Bendy and The sink Machine eventually fully released on PC and console in October 2018. A sequel game named Bendy and The Dark Revival launched, recently launched in November last year.
With Bendy The Cage starting its production, Bendy fans will likely not see a release date in the near future. Until then, fans can head over to the official Bendy social media accounts.
