HORROR / IOS / ANDROID / MOBILE RELEASE
There’s never been a particularly good time to get trapped inside Playtime Co.’s factory. Now there’s a new way to do it while you’re sitting on the sofa, which somehow feels even less appealing.
Mob Entertainment has released Poppy Playtime: Chapter 5 – Broken Things on iOS and Android, effective 12 November 2026. The mobile launch follows the chapter’s arrival on PC and consoles earlier in the year, bringing the next part of the story to phones and tablets.
The Prototype isn’t going anywhere
Broken Things picks up after Chapter 4, taking players deeper into the factory and the territory controlled by the Prototype. Huggy Wuggy is still a threat, allies are hard to come by, and the usual cheerful company culture is conspicuously absent.
Players explore new areas, uncover more of the factory’s experiments, solve puzzles and use additional GrabPack abilities to get past obstacles. Mob Entertainment says the mobile edition covers the chapter’s full adventure, although we’d want to test individual devices before commenting on its technical performance or controls.
A portable version of the horror
Mobile is an obvious next home for a series with such a large audience, but it also presents a different challenge for a game built around investigation, escaping enemies and fiddling with puzzle mechanisms under pressure. The question isn’t whether the franchise fits on a phone; it’s whether the controls hold up when everything starts chasing you.
The publisher also points towards the wider Playtime Co. universe, including the separate co-operative project Escape From Playtime, which launched into Steam Early Access in October. That is a different game, not content included with the Chapter 5 mobile purchase.
Our view
For fans who already know the factory’s grim history, having Chapter 5 on mobile opens up another way to revisit the story. For newcomers, we’d still recommend checking how the chapter-based structure works before buying, particularly if you’re starting from the beginning.
This is a launch report, not a hands-on review of the mobile ports. At the moment, we can confirm the new platform availability from Mob Entertainment’s announcement, but not how either version runs on a particular device.
