After pulling the game from the Steam Store, Scott Cawthon agreed that his game was released too early. However, instead of putting the game back on Steam, he opted to put the game on Game Jolt for a free download. He posted an announcement on Five Nights 4 to clarify about taking the game away from Steam:
“I wanted to make a post about the fate of FNaF World. Even though the game had a "Very Positive" rating with 87%, I was not satisfied with the reviews and ratings it was getting… From this point forward, the game will always be free on GameJolt AND Steam. I appreciate your support, and I encourage you all to refund your Steam game (even if you enjoyed the game), and download the new version when it becomes available on GameJolt. :)”
Cawthon even put in a new 3D overworld to the game, which is now complete to his standards.
