Five Nights at Freddy's 2

Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (FNaF 2) is a 2014 point-and-click survival horror game developed and published by Scott Cawthon. It is the second installment in the Five Nights at Freddy's series. Set in a fictional pizzeria, the player takes on the role of a night security guard and must defend themselves from the restaurant's hostile animatronic mascots. The player cannot leave their office, but has access to security cameras throughout the restaurant to monitor animatronic activity. Wearing a mask that looks like one of the animatronics allows the player to avoid being detected in most cases, though some animatronics are repelled through other methods. If an animatronic enters the office and the player is detected, they will be killed. As the game progresses, Atari-styled minigames and phone calls provide insight into the history of the restaurant.

Cawthon teased Five Nights at Freddy's 2 in September 2014. It was released for Windows via Steam on November 10, 2014, earlier than its planned release date of December 25. Ports for Android and iOS were released on November 12 and November 20 respectively that same year, with a Windows Phone port releasing December 1. Five Nights at Freddy's 2 received mixed reviews from critics, some of them recommending the game to fans of the original title. Reviewers praised the atmosphere, story, and jumpscares while criticizing its difficulty. The third game in the series, Five Nights at Freddy's 3, was released on March 2, 2015. Versions for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One were released in November 2019 alongside the first, third, and fourth games in the franchise.
