New members of the band

**New members of the band** is the seventh file available in *Fazbear Entertainment Security Archive*. The file documented an article about the event of Fazbear Entertainment purchasing Candy's Burgers and Fries.

## Password

The password of the document is "**Candy**", which is obviously the name of Candy the Cat, the main mascot of Candy's Burgers and Fries.

In the "Updating..." post that came with FESA's update, an image containing hints for passwords of the new files was posted. Among the hints is a barcode-like pattern that can faintly be seen in the background. The pattern can be translated into morse code (long and short white bars as the morse code, longer black bars as letter separators), and upon decoding it reveals the word "KANDY".

## Content

*(Note that there seems to be a mistake in the following document. The written date of the file is supposed to be 1989, and the year of Candy's Burgers and Fries purchased is supposed to be 1988, but the year was mistakenly swapped.)*

*Date: 5/13/1988

Animatronic unit involved: None

Details:

Following a string of unfortunate incidents and unsuccessful court battles spanning over several years, popular children's restaurant and long-time competitor of Fazbear Entertainment, Candy's Burgers and Fries, was purchased by Fazbear Entertainment on the 13th of May, 1989 for 20 million dollars. At the time of the purchase, Rowboatics Corp; owner of Candy's Burgers and Fries was in severe financial trouble and was facing thousands of dollars worth of debt. This purchase only a few months following the acquisition of [REDACTED]; another popular competitor in the business of animatronic entertainment.*

*Fazbear Entertainment took it upon themselves to purchase the long-loved fast-food chain in hopes of saving its beloved characters. Currently, all Rowboatics Corp. assets purchased by Fazbear Entertainment are being stored at their main storage warehouse in [REDACTED], Nevada until Further notice.*

*"We know what it's like to be in Candy's shoes and we've both had our fair share of financial struggles and controversy. We know their pain. Though Fazbear Entertainment and Rowboatics Corp have been long-time rivals, we both prioritize the memories made by the children who come to our establishments over everything else. And we will not let these beloved characters who've made impacts on so many lives of children all across [REDACTED] fall into obscurity. Keep an eye out! Candy isn't done with you yet!"

- Fazbear Entertainment spokesperson*

## Trivia

* The article mentioned Fazbear Entertainment purchasing another restaurant that was also their competitor, though the name of the restaurant was redacted. This may be a hint that another character from a different FNaF fan-game series is joining the *Fazbear Tycoon* universe.
	+ For confirmation, the developer of the game, Undead Army had confirmed that another, and possibly more, fan-game character will be added.
		- These characters are later revealed to be Grizzly and Tealer. It is unknown whether more fan-game characters will be coming to the game. Though whether any of these characters were the one referred to in the document is left for speculation.
