Save 20% on Overcooked! 2 and the Too Many Cooks pack!
Hey chefs
If you haven't yet picked up Overcooked! 2, you can now save 20% on Steam - this weekend only! Overcooked! 2 is more of the Overcooked you know and love, but with added online multiplayer, new dynamic kitchens, lots of new chefs and the ability to throw ingredients. Throwing changes everything!
Just look at how excited the Onion King is about all of this - and the fact that you can now get it even cheaper for a limited time!
If you already own Overcooked! 2 but want to add some extra chefs to your roster, why not check out the Too Many Cooks pack, also 20% off this weekend!
You might have seen last week’s little teaser wondering how a beach, a pineapple and a water pistol fit into Overcooked! 2. Well, wonder no more, as today we’re excited to announce the very first piece of DLC for Overcooked! 2; Surf ‘n’ Turf!

With 12 new campaign kitchens, three new chefs, two new Versus kitchens, a new hidden Kevin level, and new recipes for kebabs and smoothies, you’re pretty much guaranteed a great time at the beach! We’ve even added a water pistol that can be used not only to put out fires or push your fellow chefs around, but also to clean those dirty dishes!
Once you’ve played through and 3-starred all the kitchens, you’ll be able to jump into New Game+ and aim to 4-star Surf ‘n’ Turf as well, just like the main game. Oh, and we’ve also added brand new achievements for you to unlock.
Launch livestream
Today at 4pm BST we will be livestreaming the brand new Surf 'n' Turf DLC across various channels, so if you'd like to check out some of the new content, be sure to tune in. As a bonus, we'll also be streaming The Escapists: Complete Edition immediately after, showcasing the recent launch on Nintendo Switch. We'll be answering all your questions about both games, so be sure to jump in chat!
Surf 'n' Turf will be available on Steam today at 5pm BST.
We hope you’re all enjoying your time with Overcooked! 2 and want to thank you for your continued support as we keep improving the experience for beginner and veteran chefs alike. Rest assured that we’ve got a lot more coming to Overcooked! 2, and we can’t wait to share more news with you in the weeks and months to come.
See you on the beach!

The main survey questions consist of 'Choose one option', or 'Tick all that apply' -type questions.
Each of the above types has an accompanying optional comment box.
Optional comment boxes Feel free to leave more feedback, or not. It's entirely up to you, but if there's something about the game you feel strongly about (positive or otherwise) you can use a comment box to tell us more. Otherwise, feel free to skip them.

Something's coming to Overcooked! 2...
Hi everyone
Today we just wanted to let you know, that something's coming to Overcooked! 2...

Any guesses as to what it might be?
Overcooked! 2 - Shared Progress update!
Hey everyone!
If you do any of your cooking with other chefs online, we've just put out an update that should make this experience even better. Today's update adds "shared progress" saving, which now saves story progress to the profiles of all online chefs!
“With the Shared Progress update, levels played in Story mode online will now be saved for all online players. This means levels will be unlocked, stars awarded, and your best score saved for everyone when completing a level, whether you are the host or the client!”
We hope this update will make your online cooking even better, and are looking forward to seeing even more of you 4-starring kitchens together!
Full patch notes for today's update:
New functionality for Clients in online Story mode games to save progress.
Fixed an issue where input from certain PS4 controllers was not being recognised in-game on OSX.
Fixed an error that occurred if a client left an online game during the intro cutscene.
Fixed the button text on the controls screen displaying in the incorrect language for Japanese/Simplified Chinese/Korean.
As always, please do let us know what you think of the update, and what you'd love to see next. We've still got a lot of cool updates coming, and can't wait to share more with you soon. Those of you on consoles can rest assured that we'll be bringing these updates to all platforms as soon as possible!
See you in the kitchen!
Cloud Saving issues + workaround
We are currently investigating an issue related to Cloud Saves on Overcooked! 2. If Cloud Saves are enabled on your PC, some players may be affected by an issue where their save data can appear to have been lost as it may be downloaded from the Steam Cloud into an incorrect folder.
For any players who are affected, we are seeing that the save data downloaded from the Steam Cloud can be found in the following file location for each platform:
This isn’t a folder that the game will check for save data, so if the game cannot find the save file, it will then assume there is no save data and create new files. To use this data, the files in the folders above need to be copied into the following locations for each platform:
We have now put a fix into place for this and Cloud Saves made from this point on Windows and OSX will now be downloaded from the Steam Cloud into the correct folder. Cloud Saving will unfortunately be unavailable on Linux whilst we continue to investigate the issue further and work towards a full fix.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this!
