Mob Entertainment today revealed that Nicole Tompkins voices Lily Lovebraids in POPPY PLAYTIME: CHAPTER 5 – BROKEN THINGS, available now on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
Tompkins lends her voice to Lily Lovebraids, one of Chapter 5’s most unsettling new characters. An obsessive and dangerously unstable presence within the shadowed corridors of Playtime Co,. Lily’s fractured devotion and unpredictable behavior make her as compelling as she is terrifying.
“Taking on Lily was such a fun descent into optimistic delusion,” said Tompkins. “Fueled by her desire for companionship, Lily has lost it, but she still really hopes you’ll join her for tea. A cat owner and tea lover? Sign me up.”
Best known to fans as Jill Valentine in RESIDENT EVIL, Tompkins brings emotional volatility and psychological intensity to Lily, grounding the character’s instability in surprising vulnerability.
In BROKEN THINGS, players descend deeper into the shadowed corridors of Playtime Co., where The Prototype finally steps out from the darkness. Along the way, they encounter Lily Lovebraids, an obsessive and dangerously unstable presence whose fractured devotion and unpredictable behavior make her as compelling as she is terrifying. Whether Lily is an ally, victim, or something far worse is for players to uncover.
Shifting the Prototype’s hunt for Poppy into a terror-filled game of cat-and-mouse, the gameplay trailer offers the first detailed look at Chapter 5 in action. With the threat of The Prototype growing ever stronger, players will navigate new areas of Playtime Co., and make some unlikely allies in their fight for survival. With options running low and time running out, players will test just how far they are willing to go to survive.
In Poppy Playtime: Chapter 5, players must prepare to face off against the deadly puppetmaster behind the horrifying events of Playtime Co. Solve devious puzzles and overcome dangerous obstacles as the true rotten heart at the center of Playtime Co. draws nearer. Traverse this new realm of shadows in a fight for survival (and the truth) with Playtime’s security system, Huggy Wuggy, in hot pursuit and separated from your only allies. Will you finally end this nightmare, or fall victim to the puppet master’s twisted madness?
What to Expect in Chapter 5:
Stomach-churning terrors await you in this new section of the factory as you uncover the dark works hidden within The Prototype’s stomping grounds.
In this chilling new layer of the Playtime facility, you will encounter the tortured denizens living in the darkness. They may aid you in your quest to defeat The Prototype, but can they be trusted?
Solve devious puzzles and overcome dangerous environmental obstacles with the power of new GrabPack tools and functionality.
As you reach the true rotten heart at the center of Playtime, discover some of the company’s gravest sins.
