As the title implies, the game does not take place at one of the Freddy Fazbear's Pizza restaurants featured in previous installments, but instead at a sister location called Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental, which features its own set of animatronic characters, central to which is the titular Circus Baby. Players control a new employee who must perform maintenance work at the facility where the animatronics are stored while defending themselves from the animatronics, which become mobile and homicidal at night. The gameplay in Sister Location is drastically different from previous Five Nights at Freddy's games, as it allows players to move between rooms and requires different objectives to be carried out from night to night.
Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location received mixed reviews, with praise for its plot and voice performances, and criticism for some aspects of its gameplay. A sequel, Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator, was released on December 4, 2017.
