Anyway, onto everything you need to know about Poppy Playtime’s Huggy Wuggy.
Who is Poppy Playtime’s Huggy Wuggy?
Huggy Wuggy is one of the most popular toys to come from Playtime Co. As such, he’s a company mascot, one that appears to be oh-so cuddly and loveable. However, the despicable company eventually opts to conduct some truly abhorrent experiments, which result in Huggy Wuggy gaining a vicious human conscience and a true hatred for people (honestly, we get it, Wugster).
What is Poppy Playtime Huggy Wuggy’s role in the story?
Huggy Wuggy is the primary antagonist of Poppy Playtime Chapter 1, in which he continuously stalks the player as they navigate through the factory. The first time you see him, it appears as though he’s a huge welcoming statue, but as soon as you get the key to enter the main part of the factory, he disappears.
Throughout the chapter, you can spot him watching you in impossible-to-reach places. Don’t worry, he has no intention of harming you just yet. It’s not until the penultimate moments of the chapter that the tall and cosy-looking toy emerges from the shadows, bears its teeth, and chases you with the intent of turning you into his dinner.
Poppy Playtime Huggy Wuggy’s personality
Before the horrendous experiments by Playtime Co, Huggy Wuggy is a vibrant, full-of-life hugster that loves everyone. However, this all changes when the studies take place, as the jolly toy is now a vicious and hateful soul. However, what’s more terrifying than that is the fact that he’s smart and manipulative, forming strategies to best capture and kill his prey.
