  1. 1

    Pick a platform and pre-order window

    Graveyard Keeper 2 unlocks September 22, 2026 on PC (Steam, Epic, GOG), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2. Confirm storefronts in the platforms comparison and lock the release date on your calendar.

  2. 2

    Check the PC box if you play on Steam

    Minimum specs target 720p; recommended specs target 1080p with DirectX 12. Read the full system requirements before you pre-purchase, especially on older laptops.

  3. 3

    Claim the Sauna and Inquisitor outfit

    Pre-order currently includes a Sauna building and a platform-specific Grand Inquisitor outfit. Use the pre-order guide and the checklist so you do not miss the 20% Steam discount.

  4. 4

    Learn what actually changed from the original

    The sequel keeps cemetery capitalism, then adds 3D lighting, factory automation, Town restoration, combat, and a talent layer on the old tech tree. Read what's new, tech tree, and the story diary.

  5. 5

    Plan your first week: graves, zombies, Town

    Sketch a first-week order: graves and farming, then automation, then combat and zombie army defense, then rebuild the Town. The preview lists what is still unknown until launch.

Is Graveyard Keeper 2 a Roblox game?

No. It is a paid single-player sequel from Lazy Bear Games on PC and consoles. Start at the official links hub for Steam and studio channels.

Where should returning Keepers begin?
