The developer, October Games, announced on January 10, 2026 that the game and all DLC would be removed from Steam on February 25, 2026. The store data confirms there are no purchase options available, consistent with this removal having taken effect. In the same post, the developer thanked the community and described the game as a concluded journey, with no mention of continued development or future content. A "FINAL DLC sale" post on February 4, 2026 reinforced the finality of the game's commercial life on Steam. Players who already own the game can still play it from their libraries, but the game is no longer available for new purchase.

In this Puppet-Only Game mode, two factions battle to determine the deadliest tiny terror. The first team to reach XP limit wins!

PUPPET MAYHEM

Play as a variety of malicious little fiends ripped straight from the film series, spanning iconic characters like Blade, Jester, and Six Shooter, as well as deep cuts from the franchise like the Totem and Mephisto. And officially, for the first time, the Puppets crossover with another twisted Full Moon Features franchise, Demonic Toys. Play as the foul-mouthed Baby Oopsie Daisy or the manic Jack-Attack and many more! It's pint-sized mayhem!

TOULON’S JOURNALS

A Sandbox Single Player mode where you can complete objectives and unlock pages of Andre Toulon’s Journal. Collect them all and listen to the Puppet Master’s journey throughout the series.
