Graveyard Keeper 2: Release Date, Demo, Platforms and PC Requirements

What is Graveyard Keeper 2?

Graveyard Keeper 2 is a single-player management sequel from Lazy Bear Games and tinyBuild. The official description keeps the medieval graveyard at the center, then expands the work to rebuilding The Town, automating production, preparing fortifications, and leading zombie troops against an outbreak.

Those are publisher-described features rather than evidence of pacing, balance, performance, or overall quality. This page is a sourced release guide and does not present itself as a review or a record of hands-on play.

Is there a Graveyard Keeper 2 demo?

Yes. The free Steam demo launched on September 14, 2026. Its store description says it covers the opening of the game through the introduction of The Town and contains around three to four hours of play.

Steam also says that players who purchase the full game can continue with their demo save. The time estimate comes from the publisher and is not a guaranteed completion time; individual routes and play styles can differ.

How to download the demo and keep your save

The demo is a separate free Steam download. The official listing confirms the install entry point, the approximate scope, and full-game save continuation; the steps below organize those verified details without claiming a hands-on test.

Release date and confirmed platforms

Graveyard Keeper 2 is scheduled for September 22, 2026. Current first-party listings confirm Windows PC through Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2.

The developer page names PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox. The official game site separately links Nintendo's Switch and Switch 2 listings, and both Nintendo pages publish the same September 22 release date. No cross-save or cross-buy claim is included because the checked pages do not confirm either feature.

Is Graveyard Keeper 2 multiplayer?

No multiplayer mode is currently listed. Steam labels the game as single-player, the developer page describes it as single-player, and Nintendo lists one player on a single system. That supports a single-player answer for launch unless the publisher changes the product listings.

How much does Graveyard Keeper 2 cost?

Price varies by storefront and region. On September 16, the US Steam page showed a $24.99 list price and a temporary 20 percent pre-purchase price of $19.99 through September 22. The US PlayStation listing showed a $19.99 standard price with a separate PlayStation Plus offer.

These are dated US storefront observations, not universal prices. The live store in the reader's region is the final source, and the temporary pre-purchase wording must be removed or refreshed after launch.

Official Windows PC requirements

Steam lists Windows 10 x64 or newer and DirectX 12 for both tiers. The minimum calls for 6 GB of RAM and a GeForce GTX 1650-class GPU; the recommended tier moves to 8 GB of RAM and a GeForce RTX 3060-class GPU.

These are publisher-provided specifications, not measured performance targets. Steam does not attach a resolution, frame rate, or graphics preset to either tier, so this page does not infer one.
