## Reception

### The Updated Edition

The book's reception is largely mixed. While the *Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator* and *Ultimate Custom Night* pages were filled with misleading errors (all of which can be seen here), another main criticism by fans is that the book contain a big number of stolen fan model renders for the *Ultimate Custom Night* map's page, as all can be seen here. Scott Cawthon confirmed that he will work with Scholastic to fix them. Scott confirmed that he will fix the errors.

### Ultimate Edition

* Due to criticism of the old cover of how it had Bonnie's Special Delivery render, the cover was changed to have Freddy Frostbear instead.

## Trivia

### The Original Edition

* The very last page features LadyFiszi's artwork of Scrap Baby's silhouette, teasing *Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator*.

### Updated Edition

* On page 165, one of the Security Puppet minigame screenshots was taken from Skype, as noticed by the watermark from the top right corner.
* Due to criticisms, the book was re-released with an updated version. This update fixes almost every notable errors and replaced all of the fan renders from the *Ultimate Custom Night* map page with pre-existing official icons. However, there are still some errors found, such as Scraptrap's icon reusing Springtrap's. Such errors were later fixed for the book's second re-release.
* One of the screenshots shows the player having 1,000 points, which is impossible to have in-game (because if the player selects the one companion that which grants them this amount of points, XOR will add more animatronics to the night).
* Originally from the book's old edition, the page that quotes William Afton's springlock failure death description from *The Silver Eyes* was removed.
* The last page features LadyFiszi's artwork of Springtrap from *Fazbear Frights: Bunny Call*, with a mass of glitching static from his left side.

### Ultimate Edition

* Unlike the other two Freddy Files books, this version does not feature a teaser at the end related to any new upcoming content.
