Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach is the ninth major installment released seven years after the original Five Nights at Freddy’s game. Due to some unforeseen delays after a promised April 2021 release, the developers released Security Breach: Fury’s Rage as compensation to waiting fans. Despite the setbacks, the game was released digitally on PC as well as Playstation 4 and 5 in December 2021. An update to fix several technical and bug problems was released in February. Though fans were grateful for the extra polish, Xbox players have been patiently waiting for more information regarding Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach’s release on any Xbox console.
