Data de lançamento de Graveyard Keeper 2

Graveyard Keeper 2 releases on September 22, 2026. The date is confirmed in two first-party places: the official Steam store page, which shows the release date and a live countdown, and the official announcement published on August 26, 2026.

If you are reading this before launch, the practical question is not whether the date will hold — it is what you should do with the time remaining, and whether the pre-purchase discount is worth taking.

When exactly does it unlock?

The Steam page lists the release date as Sep 22, 2026 and notes that the game "plans to unlock in approximately 11 days" as of early September 2026. Historically that phrasing means Steam unlocks the game at 10:00 AM Pacific Time on release day for most regions, but Valve does not publish a guaranteed minute, and regional storefronts on console can differ.

The safe approach: treat the whole of September 22 as launch day, and check the official Steam page for the live countdown in your own timezone.

How much does it cost?

The standard price is $24.99 USD. At the time of writing, Steam is running a pre-purchase promotion at -20%, bringing the pre-order price to $19.99 USD, with the offer stated to end on September 22 — that is, it ends at launch.

Regional pricing and console storefront prices have not been published by the developers. If you are buying outside the US, check your local store page rather than converting the dollar figure.

What do you get for pre-ordering?

Two bonuses were confirmed in the launch-date announcement:

• A Sauna building, described as a way to lift your spirits after a long and productive day.
• An outfit worthy of the new Grand Inquisitor (that is, you).

One important caveat was stated directly: the outfit you receive depends on the platform you pre-order on. If the cosmetic matters to you, buy on the platform you intend to play on.

Which platforms is it on?

Platform-specific release timing is unconfirmed. The September 22 date is confirmed for the Steam release; consoles are listed as part of the same launch window, but no separate console timing statement has been published.

What to do before launch

Three things are worth doing with the remaining time, and none of them require the game:

1. Read the systems, not the spoilers. The beginner guide and gameplay overview cover every officially confirmed mechanic, so you can plan an opening without guessing.
2. Check your PC against the requirements. Full minimum and recommended specs are on the system requirements page. The minimum tier is modest; the recommended tier targets 1080p.
3. Decide on the pre-purchase before the discount ends. The -20% offer ends at launch, so waiting for reviews means paying full price.

If you have not played the original game, you do not need to. The developers wrote the sequel to be understandable for players starting with Graveyard Keeper 2, and eight years have passed in the story since the original.
