Five Nights at Freddy's is a series well-known for its many mysteries. Since 2014, the franchise has kept its secrets close to its chest and some players have gone wild trying to figure out the lore that ties Springtrap, Golden Freddy, the Puppet, and more. With a movie getting closer by the month, it's a reputation that doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon.

The insanity ending of Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator is unique in that it can be unlocked at any point of the game. Players technically only need to meet the following criteria:

  • Gain access to the 'Rare Finds Auction' catalogue, which is unlocked after spending approximately $3000.
  • Spend $6000 to buy the 'Egg Baby (Data Archive).'
  • Find a spot on the floor of the pizzeria to place the Egg Baby (Data Archive), and place it in the restaurant.

Note that floor decorations that have already been placed can be removed by selecting them and then pressing the small 'X.' Players can use this feature if they need to make room for the Egg Baby (Data Archive.

How To Unlock The Insanity Ending

After purchasing the Egg Baby (Data Archive) and placing it inside their pizzeria, players need to enter the 'blueprint mode' and click the 'FINISHED' button in the bottom-right. This takes them to the game's tense 'night' segments, where they must complete various tasks while salvaged animatronics crawl around in vents and must be distracted. Buying the Egg Baby animatronic will have a subtle effect on the player's office: the glowing button on the bottom-left of their monitor, usually green, will have turned blue.

The ending is now in reach. Players need to switch the monitor off (by pressing the 'Z' key for PC players), then click and hold the button on the monitor. With the button held down, players are then free to switch the monitor back on, at which point it will display several blueprints. After the cutscenes end, players can pat themselves on the back for being certifiably insane — and having the certificate on the main menu to prove it. Vaas would be proud.

Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator is available on PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and Mobile.
