Overcooked 2 (stylised as Overcooked! 2) is a cooperative cooking simulation video game developed by Team17 alongside Ghost Town Games, and published by Team17. The sequel to Overcooked!, it was released for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in August 2018.
In the cooking simulator game Overcooked 2, teams of up to four players cooperatively prepare and cook orders in absurd restaurants.[1] Players gather, chop, and cook ingredients, combine them on plates, serve dishes, and wash dishes. Between coordinating short orders and bumping into each other's characters, the game tends to overwhelm.[2] The sequel builds atop the original game, which was released in 2016,[3] with new interactive levels, restaurant themes, chef costumes, and recipes. Some levels have moving floors and other obstacles that complicate the cooking process, including portals, moving walkways,[1] and impassable fires.[2] Other levels transition between settings and recipes, such as one that begins with preparing salads in a hot air balloon and ends crashlanded in a sushi kitchen.[4] The sequel introduces ingredient tossing, such that players can throw items to another chef or pot from far away, and online multiplayer,[1] in which teams can connect either across a local wireless network or through online matchmaking.[3]
Overcooked 2 was released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One platforms on August 7, 2018. It was developed by Team17 alongside Ghost Town Games, and published by Team17.[3] It was announced a month prior, at E3 2018. Atop the base game, the developers created cosmetic add-on content, such as a platypuscharacter costume exclusive to the Nintendo Switch release and a pack of other character costumes as pre-order bonus.[5]
