The most inaccurate medieval cemetery sim is back! Restore The Town, manage the graveyard, automate production, lead your undead army into battle and turn the zombie problem into a thriving business! Graveyard Keeper 2 is the grotesque sequel that's deeper than six feet, and more unhinged than ever!

Story

You are the Grand Inquisitor now! Restore the Town and lead your undead army into battle to save the realm from a zombie apocalypse.

What is happening now

Graveyard Keeper II is an RPG-adventure simulator arriving September 22, 2026, across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, Switch, and PC. The sequel follows the original game's blend of graveyard management and exploration, tasking players with the peculiar responsibilities of maintaining a burial ground while uncovering its mysteries. The game's release is approaching with a playable demo now available on major platforms. Early coverage suggests the sequel maintains the series' offbeat sensibilities while adapting to current-generation hardware, positioning itself as a nostalgic yet modernized take on the property's distinctive management-adventure formula.
