What is the Graveyard Keeper 2 release date?
September 22, 2026 — and it was a real launch, not Early Access. Lazy Bear Games and tinyBuild shipped the full game worldwide on day one, ten days before this page was last checked. Before that date the only public build was a demo (version 1.002.4), which is why some older community guides describe mechanics that patch 1.005 has since changed.
Which platforms is it on?
The release is genuinely multi-platform, verified across the official site and store listings:
- PC — Steam, GOG and Epic. The Steam build is Windows-only (64-bit Windows 10 or newer; minimum specs list a 13th-gen Core i3 and a GTX 1650).
- PlayStation 5
- Xbox Series X|S
- Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 — separate listings; early owners report the Switch 2 version runs noticeably smoother.
It is single-player on every platform — there is no co-op or multiplayer mode of any kind.
Patch history so far
The game is patching fast, and several early guides are already stale. Two updates have landed since launch:
| Patch | Date | What changed |
|---|---|---|
| 1.005 | 2026-09-24 | Fixed the Study Table, Crematorium and Resurrection Table; adjusted log yields and Kiln/Furnace costs. |
| 1.007 | 2026-09-28 | Zombie battles now award red tech points — a big deal for automation-heavy runs. |
SteamDB also logged a small build update on September 29 without official notes. Every calculator page on this site stamps its data with the patch it was verified against — the current table targets 1.007.
What to do now that it is out
If you are just starting: the first week is about unlocking your first zombie and automating the yard — the how to make zombies guide covers the story zombies and the Resurrection Table route. If you are planning a factory, point the factory production calculator at your target Supply line before you pour concrete. And if you are the type to sprint the credits, the all endings guide keeps spoilers behind a warning while the community maps the final routes.
