Space Chef: The Open-Galaxy Cooking Adventure Launches October 28

Get ready to fire up your cosmic fryers, because the highly anticipated action-adventure and cooking hybrid, Space Chef, is set to launch on Tuesday, October 28, 2025. Developed by BlueGooGames and published by Kwalee, the game will be available on PC (via Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.

After a successful crowdfunding period that helped bring the project to life, Space Chef is ready to offer players a unique blend of open-world exploration, creature hunting, crafting, and chaotic kitchen management—all wrapped up in a charming 2D art style.

What to Expect in Space Chef

The game centers on an aspiring chef whose local restaurant scene is threatened by the arrival of the villainous “Galactic Burger” chain. To fight back, you must travel the Horseshoe Nebula in your customizable space food truck, gathering ingredients and crafting exotic cuisine.

• Hunt & Gather: You’ll visit procedurally generated alien planets, which are teeming with both edible life and dangerous creatures. You must hunt for the rare and unique ingredients needed to complete your 140+ recipe cookbook.
• Cook & Craft: The core gameplay involves preparing a huge variety of dishes, managing the frantic pace of a kitchen, and decking out your space trailer with new equipment and decorations.
• Open-Galaxy Adventure: The universe is open for exploration, with each playthrough offering a different arrangement of planets. The game is an Action-Adventure/Simulation/RPG mix, focusing on building your reputation as the galaxy’s top chef.
• Co-op Focus: Space Chef is confirmed to support Local Co-op (1-4 players) on the console and PC versions, allowing friends to hunt, cook, and deliver cosmic cuisine together. Note: Online co-op is not a planned feature for launch.

A Unique Blend of Genres

Space Chef is one of the more unique releases of the fall, combining the intense, time-management fun of cooking games like Overcooked with the crafting and exploration elements of open-world adventure and farming/life-sim games. This combination positions it as a high-interest title for fans of Indie Games, Adventure RPGs, and Co-op Games on all major platforms.

Mark your calendars for October 28 to begin your journey to become the ultimate Cosmic Cuisine Master!
