Concept on a Five Nights at Freddy's chapter
This has likely been brought up numerous times but I thought I would bring forward a more detailed concept for this franchise possibly being added to the game given it's become a big trend again since the movie last year.
New killer: The animatronic
By default the killer will be Springtrap who fans will know is not just an animatronic but a serial killer trapped inside one after a gruesome accident.
He will wield a knife like in the movie as its weapon, perks I am not really sure what those can be but special ability for the animatronic will be "mechanical grip" which allows to killer to enter a small charge and grab and pick up a survivor without downing them making it crucial survivors stay out of grabbing range.
Mori animation will be the killer puts the survivor in a animatronic suit modeled after the Fredbear character and activates the springlock mechanism making them suffer a similar fate to Springtrap by crushing them inside the suit.
For cosmetics, the animatronic will have skins modeled after the various characters from the game. characters I have in mind are:
Withered Freddy his weapon will just be his fist
Withered Bonnie weapon would be his guitar with a blade sticking out the headstock
Nightmare Freddy
Nightmare Bonnie
Nightmare Chica
Weapons for last 3 will be their claws obviously.
New survivors will be Mike Schmidt and Vanessa Shelly
The 2 main characters of the movie and part of the FNAF lore
New maps: The Pizzeria
A new indoor and outdoor map that will primarily be based around the FNAF 2 pizzeria map in terms of design and layout, unique to this map will be it will be able to have a killer shack style room spawn in 1 of 2 places, the office or parts & services room. There will be a few outdoor sections accessible by vault points and doorways, at least 5 gens will be inside with 2 outside. The interior will be run down a bit with the walls dirty and water dripping in through the roof as this map will have it raining outside. Will also have a decent amount of references to the FNAF series like the drawings and posters, destroyed animatronics and parts litered around and some crime scene tape in a few areas to help add to the theme.
Layout of the FNAF 2 map for reference.
