In FNF B Sides you start with songs you already know from the base weeks, except every one of them has been remixed and every character has been given a new coat of paint — the familiar note patterns are still recognizable underneath, but almost nothing about the presentation matches what you remember.
The core version of FNF B Sides reworks eighteen songs spanning the first six weeks of the base game, with only Monster left out of the remix treatment. Every other track gets a new arrangement layered on top of its original chart, so a song a player has cleared dozens of times in its base form can still catch them off guard the first time through its B-side version.
Alongside the remixed audio, every week also gets a palette swap across its characters, which is a smaller change on its own but adds up across six full weeks — by the time a player reaches the later songs, almost nothing on screen looks like the original run they might have started from.
A handful of songs go further than a palette swap, picking up actual redesigns for Boyfriend along with new animation work rather than just a recolor, which makes those specific tracks stand out even among a full remix pack where every song already sounds different from its source.
Beyond the core eighteen-song set, FNF B Sides received a larger expansion that reworks the original recolors into more distinct character designs of their own, rather than just refining the palette-swap approach used at launch. That expansion also brought ten additional songs covering weeks one, two, and a brand-new seventh week, which didn’t exist in the base game’s original six-week structure at all.
Both versions stay accessible from the same install rather than one replacing the other, so a player can move between the original eighteen-song set and the expanded content depending on which style of remix and character design they’re in the mood for on a given session — between the two, the mod adds up to twenty-eight songs in total.
Because every track starts from a familiar base chart, the songs that deviate the most from their original note patterns tend to get singled out in player discussions more than the ones that stay relatively close to the source. A remix that mostly follows the original song’s rhythm reads as a reskin, while one that restructures the chart itself reads as a genuinely new challenge, and players tend to have strong, divided opinions about which approach they’d rather see more of across the pack.
That split is a real, ongoing point of disagreement in how people talk about FNF B Sides — some players want every remix to lean as hard as possible into reworking the chart, while others prefer remixes that stay close enough to the original that the base game’s muscle memory still carries over.
Whether a player sticks to the original eighteen-song set or works through the full twenty-eight with the Redux content included, FNF B Sides holds up because the remixes never feel like a cosmetic reskin of the base six weeks — they feel like a second version of the same story told through different charts.
