Returning from one of his many adventures, the Onion King has come into possession of a curious book. Let’s dive into a few of the new features we’ve added to the game: With Overcooked 2 we’re looking to expand on the original in almost every direction. Up until now we’d developed the game entirely ourselves and we were a little sceptical about sharing all our toys, but when we sat down with the developers and spoke about ideas for a sequel we were excited at just how naturally it all came together. When Team 17 approached us in late 2016 with the proposition of co-developing a sequel we were hesitant. Anyone in development will tell you that you can expect to (at least) double the production time on a project if you plan to add online multiplayer, which for us just wasn’t possible, but it didn’t stop us feeling a little sad when reading messages from players wishing they could play the game with their sibling in another country. We made no secret of the fact that as a two-person studio it was never really feasible for us to add online multiplayer to the game. We’ve been working on DLC, porting the game to new languages and new platforms and yes, we’ve been secretly working on the sequel… something neither of us ever imagined would happen when we started work on the game four or so years ago. The truth is that Oli and I haven’t really stopped working on Overcooked since its release. I’m sure they imagined us lying around in hammocks sipping pina coladas out of coconuts.

For months leading up to the announcement, we had hundreds of emails from the community, shocked that we had abandoned the game and angry that we were ignoring the myriad messages from players hungry for online multiplayer. Overcooked 2 has been one of the most difficult secrets I’ve ever had to keep.
