That co-op focus is better than ever now that both local and online co-op are supported.Ĭooking is simple in concept here – you just need to grab the ingredients for the desired recipe, chop or cook them if needed, put it all together, and serve it. The game can still be enjoyable that way, but it’s obviously built with cooperation in mind. If playing solo, you’ll have to switch between two chefs to make everyone’s orders. Each level requires two or more chefs to cook food for various customers, not unlike a time management game. The core gameplay remains mostly the same as in the original. Accomplishing secret (usually very easy) conditions on specific levels will unlock extra tough hidden levels as well. As our heroes complete batches of levels, they’ll have to drive their food truck back to the Onion King’s castle to progress the story and unlock the next batch of levels. Story is Overcooked! 2’s primary mode, a campaign made up of dozens of levels spread across a huge map. More will unlock through campaign progress, with an additional batch that were offered as a preorder bonus now available for purchase as well. You start with several cutesy chefs in your playable roster, all with identical abilities.

Overcooked! 2 features a new-and-improved main menu from which players can select their chefs, party up, and choose between three different game modes (Story, Arcade, and Versus). It’s a delightfully silly setup for a fun and frantic cooperative adventure.

Now our heroic squad of chefs must travel the world to find recipes that will satisfy the Unbread once and for all. Naturally, things go awry, resulting in the creation of an evil army of Unbread zombies. Overcooked! 2 instead begins with the Onion King and his faithful dog Kevin attempting to prepare a recipe from the NecroNomNomicon. Seeing as how the first Overcooked! opened with the amazingly dramatic scene of a gigantic monster on the verge of destroying the world, it would be tough to top that scenario in the sequel. As you might expect, the result is a devastatingly delicious cooking adventure. Now Ghost Town Games and Team17 have whipped up Overcooked! 2, which adds both online co-op and competitive play to the recipe. The original Overcooked! was a surprisingly great co-op cooking game, allowing 2-4 local players to team up and bake lots of dishes in a desperate attempt to save the world.
