If you were wondering whether your favorite Little Nightmares characters appear in Supermassive Games’ version of Nowhere, then here’s everything you should know about Six and Mono’s potential return in Little Nightmares III.
Spoiler warning for Little Nightmares lore and how each game ends.
Do Six or Mono appear in Little Nightmare 3?
Neither Six nor Mono appear in Little Nightmares III. This likely won’t come as a surprise to you seeing as the third game is a sequel to the first, meaning Six has become a little nightmare herself and Mono—well he’s just waiting for his time again as he’s trapped in an endless loop, curtesy of our heroine.
Little Nightmares II acted as the prequel to the first game, explaining how Six came to The Maw in the first place. The lore even dates back to Very Little Nightmares, as it explained Six’s origins, where the Girl in the Yellow Raincoat helped her escape (I’m sensing a pattern here). But seeing as the third game in the Little Nightmares series follows on from Six devouring the Lady and developing powers that sucks the life force from other monsters, it’s highly unlikely Six would appear again as her usual hungry self.
There’s also the added possibility that Mono stopped the paradox as the Thin Man, a theory that he potentially ended his life. Six passed a very tall, thin man hanging from the ceiling at the start of Little Nightmares. This, alongside the Secrets of the Spiral Expansion Pass for Little Nightmares III, may provide more lore on our old protagonists—or maybe Little Nightmares II is where their stories end.
What we do know, however, is that the Expansion Pass could provide more context or further clues to where Six ends up. We don’t have much to go on outside of the Secrets of the Maw DLC for Little Nightmares, which showed the powers of the Lady, who transformed the Runaway Kid into a Nome, indicating all Nomes are captive children. This completely altered the scene of Six eating the Nome in the first game, and this storytelling method could reappear in the next Expansion Pass, potentially linking Alone’s story to Six’s.
After all, there’s no mention of Six or Mono in this game, as Little Nightmares III is a standalone product that takes place in the Nowhere. This means an appearance or reference could be made in a DLC. Six and Mono may be a Tarsier Studios exclusive.
What we can confirm is that a hidden Little Nightmares III costume that looks just like Six in her yellow raincoat will be available for purchase, likely part of the Secrets of the Spiral Expansion Pass. We’ll just have to wait and see whether this is just a bit of fan service to accompany the other Little Nightmares costumes or if something relating to Six is heading our way.
