As the name suggests, it is the first installment of the series to utilize VirtualReality. Players assume the role of a repair person tasked with monitoring/repairing animatronic characters at a pizzeria; animatronics and locations are drawn from numerous past games from the series. The player is forced to complete various tasks involving the upkeep of the animatronics, who, as they usually do, repay the favor by [[KillerRobot attempting to murder them]]. The game was released on May 28th, 2019, though several of the more famous players have received beta copies before that date.

A continuation of the game subtitled ''Help Wanted 2'', which will have more of a focus on ''[[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysSisterLocation Sister Location]]'', is expected to release in late 2023.

* TheBadGuyWins: Clearing the Pizza Party level ends with [[spoiler:Glitchtrap luring you into the backstage area, where he uses your body as a conduit to escape into the real world, leaving you stuck in a Freddy suit. It's also the only time in the game, aside from directly from the main menu, that the credits plays, and [=HandUnit=] seems oblivious to your fate]].

''Five Nights at Freddy's VR: Help Wanted'' is the seventh main series game in the ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' series and the ninth game overall; it is the first game not to be entirely developed by series creator Scott Cawthon, who worked in collaboration with Steel Wool Studios for the project.

A continuation of the game subtitled ''Help Wanted 2'' is expected to release in late 2023.

* FacialHorror: [[spoiler:It's implied that, in his Glitchtrap-induced insanity, Jeremy [[TearOffYourFace cut off his face]] with the paper slicer, which would explain the "ink", the "Halloween mask" on the floor, and the fact that Tape Girl never sees Jeremy without the VR headset obscuring his face. This act also could've led to his death, through infection or bleeding out.]]

* AntiFrustrationFeatures: Night 5 in the ''[=FNAF=] 1'' levels has doors and door lights turning off and on randomly throughout the night, unless Foxy is charging down the West Hall or Freddy is in the East Hall, due to them being more difficult enemies in the night. Since the latter will practically stand in the hall and never leave it once he gets there, he can ensure the player doesn't lose control over the doors for the rest of the night.

* BorderPatrol: In ''[=FNAF1=]'', trying to lean out of your office will send Foxy straight at you.

!!''Five Nights At Freddy's VR: Help Wanted'' provides examples of:

* MissingSecret: Even after you have done everything in the game, the Showtime button still doesn't work; it seems to be post-release DLC.

[[caption-width-right:350:Are you ready for Freddy...in '''VR?''']]

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent:
** "Foxy's Pirate Ride" in the ''Curse of Dreadbear'' DLC is an on-rails shooter, and the only animatronic present is the stationary Foxy who welcomes you to the ride and explains how to beat the level. There's only one jumpscare during the ride, which is a cardboard cutout of Foxy that doesn't kill you. And the only way for Foxy to lethally jumpscare you at the very end is if you score ''exceedingly'' poorly on the ride almost to the point of doing nothing. [[spoiler:Subverted should you hit Helpy whenever he appears and force him to point left. You're still playing on an on-rails shooter, but hitting him means he'll send you on 3 entirely different tracks throughout the ride, where Jack-O-Bonnie and Jack-O-Chica ''do'' come out to play and kill.]]
** "Princess Quest", the new level added in the mobile port, is an 8-bit minigame, one that is common across the main series but previously absent in this game until now.

!! Tropes present in ''Five Nights At Freddy's VR: Help Wanted'' include:

** Golden Freddy does not appear in the levels based on the first ''Five Nights at Freddy's'', likely because his method of summoning/banishment from that game is impractical to implement in the VR environment of ''Help Wanted.'' He also doesn't appear in the ''[=FNaF=] 2'' recreations, though this is because he appears in Night 6, while the game's recreation only goes to 5. A patch eventually added Night 6, and while the other Withered Animatronics are implemented here, Golden Freddy is still absent.

* MeaningfulBackgroundEvent: In the trailer, after being jump-scared by Phantom Mangle, the player in the trailer turns to reboot the systems, seemingly not noticing [[BigBad Springtrap]] lurking in the doorway.

** ''[=FNaF=] 3'''s first night is left out, obviously because there were no threats in that night. Good for NothingIsScarier, not so much for a challenge.

* YouAreAlreadyDead: Occasionally you reach the point where you ''know'' you're dead and should probably turn down the volume of the inevitable jump scare. In ''3'', for example, once Springtrap is crawling through the vent to your right, it's over.

* ShoutOut:
** In the ''Curse of Dreadbear'' DLC Spooky Mansion Hallway level, [[spoiler:looking back will prompt Nightmare Freddy to come after you. [[VideoGame/TheJoyOfCreationReborn The game even warns you not to look back.]]]]
** In the game over screen for ''Curse of Dreadbear'', Grimm Foxy is seen scratching the wall with his hook, in a movement reminiscent of [[Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet Freddy Krueger]].
** "Pirate Ride" is obviously based on [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Disney's dark rides]], specifically ''Ride/PiratesOfTheCaribbean''.

* IAteWhat: If you get an action figure in the prize corner, you can eat it if you accidentally put it too close to your face, complete with choking sounds. Doing it too much will cause a JumpScare, however.

Congratulations, you've been selected to beta test The Freddy Fazbear Virtual Experience! While Fazbear Entertainment has had a rough couple of decades, in no small part due to the exaggerations (lies) about our company's past spread by a [[CreatorCameo complete lunatic]] ([[SelfDeprecation lawsuit pending]]), we hope our new foray into the digital age will set the record straight. In this state of the art [=VR=] game, we've recreated scenes from the (heavily fictitious) UrbanLegends about our company with the hope that we can finally move past these childish ghost stories and restore the public's trust in Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. But before that, it falls to testers like you to squash any stray bugs while enjoying [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial harmless fun that cannot harm you at all in any harmful way.]]
