This is "forgotten cat" as many people liked to call him, people believe that he is some scrapped version of candy that'll be in FNAC 4, but I believe, that this is not the case, and I whole heartly believe, that this character right here, is not cat, or a candy as a matter of fact, but BLANK.

Now I know you're gonna be asking how is this true, but here me out first. First of all, the head shape for "forgotten cat" and blank, are very similar in shapes, both have the outer line of a 3d semi circle.

Now, you're also wondering, how could it be blank, it's pretty obvious that blank clearly does not have ears, and you're right, blank has never had ears in any of the games, but, here's the thing, what's those two holes in his head for then?

And it's not just in the remastered game

So it's pretty clear that Blank has had these holes in his head the entire time since the first game, this design could mean that the designers that made blank gave him those ear holes in the way that it'd be optional for blank to have ears or not, like putting ear parts on him, but the company decided not to give blank ears. Also, the ears on "forgotten cat" are pretty much in the same placements where blank's earholes are due to both of them having similar head shapes as mentioned before

In conclusion, I don't believe this character is "forgotten cat" or some other version of candy, but I believe that this is a brand new version of Blank (or Forgotten Blank if you will) Now another thing you might mention is the fact that emil stated there wouldn't be any returning classic characters, that is of course not fully true, as emil stated that SOME characters from previous games will return, and I'm confident that blank is one of those classic FNAC characters returning to FNAC 4.
