Mob Entertainment has dropped another new cinematic trailer to whet our collective appetites for Poppy Playtime Chapter 5.

It’s one of those blink-and-you-miss-it affairs – it’s not even a minute long – but it does give a flavour of what we can expect from Mob Entertainment’s gargantuan mascot horror series, including another shadowy glimpse of the mysterious Prototype and our first look at an all-new character that may or may not be a new villain that some fans are calling Lilly Lovebraids.

Sadly, there’s no release date accompanying this teaser – just a request to wishlist it on Steam and Epic Games Store – but the speed at which Mob is churning out teasers suggests it could be here sooner rather than later.

The prior chapter, called Poppy Playtime Chapter 4, predictably enough, arrived on PC back in January of this year

, and on consoles in the summer, which also makes January 2026 a timely opportunity to drop its successor. Watch this space.

In May of last year, the studio announced that a Poppy Playtime film adaptation was in the works with Legendary Entertainment and Angry Films.

“When we first started this journey, we followed our passion and created a series of games and brands with the purpose of inspiring and entertaining. We’ve always dreamed big and are thrilled to have created something that has captured the hearts of tens of millions around the world,” Mob Entertainment co-founders Zach Belanger and Seth Belanger said at the time. “This movie deal is a great logical next step in the growth of our transmedia entertainment company.”
