Overcooked 2 Announced
June 12th, in the year of our Lord 2018 –
Team17, a global games label, creative partner and developer of
independent, premium video games in partnership with the indie
developer Ghost Town Games has today announced Overcooked 2, the
sequel to the award-winning chaotic couch co-op cooking game.
Overcooked 2 brings all new kitchens, recipes, chefs, and even
more Kevin to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch™, and PC
on August 7th.
The Onion Kingdom is in peril again and this time it is the
fault of the Onion King himself! Reading aloud from the fabled
Necronomnomicon, he has cooked up a real problem in the form of
a doughy but dangerous army of UNDEAD BREAD called…The Unbread!
The Onion King needs you, so chop, fry and bake your way through
an all new series of crazy kitchens to defeat them and save the
kingdom.
Overcooked 2 is a chaotic co-op cooking game for 1-4 players in
which you must serve a variety of recipes including sushi,
pasta, cakes, burgers and burritos to hungry customers in a
series of unconventional kitchens. Whether it be a hot air
balloon, a magical Wizard’s school or even another planet,
you’ll have to be bready for anything. Work solo or with up to
three friends to prep orders while overcoming obstacles such as
fire, collapsing floors, overbearing waiters and of course, the
classic kitchen problem of floating work surfaces.
What’s new:
• Online multiplayer! For the first time you can cook up a storm
with up to four players in both local and online multiplayer
• Throwing! Throwing is now an official game mechanic, allowing
you to toss ingredients to your fellow chefs or even straight
into the pan/blender/onto the floor
• New level mechanics! Overcooked 2 sees the introduction of new
game mechanics including moving walkways, controllable platforms
and even portals!
• Dynamic levels! Throwing you from the frying pan and into the
fire, dynamic levels will change around you, offering a new
challenge to overcome as the recipes and levels themselves
change!
• Interactive world map! As you drive, sail and soar your way
around the map in the Onion King’s amphibious air bus you will
open up new areas using hidden buttons around the world
• Kitchens! From the neon lights of a sushi restaurant to the
bubbling pots of a Wizard school kitchen, there are plenty of
places to cook up a storm in Overcooked 2!
• Recipes! From spaghetti to sushi and pancakes to pizza,
recipes both old and new will need to be cooked to perfection
(or at least not burnt to a crisp!) New recipes mean new
ingredients and new equipment so even the most well-seasoned
Overcooked players will be challenged.
• Chefs! Overcooked 2 introduces a whole host of new of chefs to
play in the kitchen including an eagle, mouse, beaver and what
kitchen is complete without an octopus!
Budding chefs can pre-order Overcooked 2 to receive the ‘Too
Many Cooks’ DLC pack which includes five chefs: Alien, Walrus,
Unicorn, Monkey and Calico Cat.
