One Piece is heading into a different kind of adventure, and this time the spotlight is on food, not battles. One Piece: Grand Gourmet turns the Baratie Number Two into a shipboard restaurant-management game built around cooking, decoration, and a steady flow of familiar faces from the series.
The project is a collaboration between Bandai Namco Entertainment Asia and Kairosoft Co., Ltd., and it places players in charge of growing a modest dining space into a busier destination at sea. More than 400 characters from the One Piece universe are set to appear in pixel-art form, including well-known figures who arrive as customers.
Cooking sits at the center of the game
The strongest hook in Grand Gourmet is its cooking system, which is designed to feel closely tied to the world of One Piece. Players will work with Sanji to experiment with ingredients and create dishes, including creative menu items such as Water-Water Meat BBQ.
The game also introduces recipes inspired by Devil Fruit abilities, giving the cooking loop a playful twist that goes beyond standard restaurant simulation. That approach is meant to keep the experience recognizable for fans while still leaving room for experimentation.
Decoration also affects how the restaurant grows
Customization plays a major role in how the restaurant develops. Players can use more than 200 furniture and decoration items inspired by popular locations in the series, including Whole Cake Island and Egghead.
Those choices are not only visual. The layout and interior design are meant to influence how attractive the restaurant becomes to customers, helping the ship evolve into a more popular dining stop on the open sea.
A wide release is already scheduled
Bandai Namco has scheduled One Piece: Grand Gourmet for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 on 22 October 2026. The PC version on Steam, along with mobile releases on the Apple Store and Google Play, is set to follow on 23 October 2026.
With its mix of restaurant management, themed cooking, and a large cast of characters, the game is shaping up as a lighter spin on the One Piece universe. The Baratie Number Two setting gives that idea a distinct identity, while the pixel-art presentation and large customization pool add more ways for players to build their own culinary version of the series.
