Bendy and the Ink Machine is back on mobile with a new game: Bendy: Lone Wolf! This top-down survival horror title, launching on iOS, Android, Switch, and Steam in 2025, builds upon the mechanics of Boris and the Dark Survival.

Remember the quirky horror of the original Bendy and the Ink Machine? Its episodic format, unique art style (think rubber hose animation), and compelling story captivated players in the mid-2010s. Now, the franchise returns with a mobile-focused experience.

The reveal trailer (link below) showcases gameplay from the perspective of Boris the Wolf, navigating the perilous Joey Drew Studios. While Lone Wolf shares similarities with Boris and the Dark Survival, its exact relationship to the earlier title remains unclear – is it a definitive edition or a completely new experience? Either way, it's a welcome return for fans.

Bendy and the Ink Machine, alongside Five Nights at Freddy's, helped launch the mascot horror genre. Lone Wolf's success will depend on its execution, as it's not the first isometric survival horror game featuring Boris. However, its multi-platform release suggests significant improvements over the original mobile entry.
