One Piece: Grand Gourmet Release Date, Price and Platforms

One Piece: Grand Gourmet releases worldwide on October 23, 2026 on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC via Steam, iOS and Android, publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment confirms. The restaurant-management sim, developed by Kairosoft, puts players in charge of the Straw Hat Crew's floating eatery, Baratie Number Two, with Sanji as head chef. Pre-orders are open now on PC at a confirmed €19.99, with other platforms and regional pricing yet to post a final figure.

When does One Piece: Grand Gourmet come out?

Bandai Namco's official press releases in both the United States and Europe list a single global release date of October 23, 2026, across every confirmed platform. That is the date to plan around for a day-one download, whether you're playing on a Switch, a PC, or a phone. Neither release gives a specific local launch time, so expect the game to roll out on each storefront's usual regional schedule rather than a synchronized worldwide countdown.

That single global date is itself notable. Plenty of licensed anime tie-ins stagger their Japanese and Western releases by weeks or months; Bandai Namco is instead treating Grand Gourmet as a simultaneous worldwide launch across five platforms at once, which is a heavier lift for a mobile-leaning sim studio like Kairosoft than it sounds.

Platforms and price

One Piece: Grand Gourmet is launching day-and-date on five platforms. Here is what Bandai Namco has confirmed for each so far:

Bandai Namco's own EU storefront lists the PC Standard Edition pre-order at €19.99, which is the only price the publisher has posted directly as of this writing. Several retail listings outside Bandai Namco's own stores cite a U.S. price around $19.99, but that figure has not yet appeared on Bandai Namco's own U.S. product page, so treat it as a likely-but-unconfirmed number until the publisher posts it directly. Mobile pricing is a separate open question: Kairosoft's other mobile sims have historically shipped as paid downloads rather than free-to-play titles, but Bandai Namco hasn't said whether Grand Gourmet on iOS and Android will follow that model or add in-app purchases of its own.

What is One Piece: Grand Gourmet?

One Piece: Grand Gourmet is a restaurant-management simulation built by Kairosoft, the Japanese studio known for pixel-art business sims on mobile. Bandai Namco's licensing deal puts a full One Piece cast on top of that formula: you join the Straw Hat Crew as a new staff member and take over Baratie Number Two, a second location of the Straw Hats' seafaring restaurant, with the goal of turning it into, as Bandai Namco's own copy puts it, "the greatest restaurant of the seas."

The job is part cooking game, part business sim. You gather ingredients and cook alongside Sanji, who helps come up with dish ideas, then combine individual dishes into full set menus to serve customers who sail in from across the Grand Line. According to Bandai Namco's own description of the game, several recipes lean directly into the source material, including series-favorite dishes like Water-Water Meat BBQ and Sea King Penne Gorgonzola, alongside original creations built around specific Devil Fruit powers. Exploring further into the game is also how new recipes get unlocked, rather than everything being available from the start.

That loop of cooking, serving, and reinvesting in the restaurant is the core structure Kairosoft typically builds its management sims around, whether the setting is a hotel, a game studio, or — in this case — a floating restaurant staffed by pirates. What changes with Grand Gourmet is the scale of the license layered on top: instead of generic staff and customers, every hire and every diner is drawn from an existing cast of more than 400 named One Piece characters, each with their own sprite and, per Bandai Namco, their own small moments of dialogue.

Over 400 characters, all in pixel art

The headline feature is scale: more than 400 characters from the One Piece franchise appear as staff and customers, rendered in Kairosoft's signature pixel-art style. Bandai Namco frames it as the largest cast the studio has assembled for a single One Piece tie-in game to date, and the publisher says it's the first time the franchise has been represented this way in pixel art. Characters can be hired to work the restaurant or simply walk in to eat, and many trigger their own small events and dialogue exchanges as the restaurant's reputation grows, rather than existing purely as background decoration.

Decorating Baratie Number Two

Beyond cooking, a large part of the loop is interior design. Bandai Namco's announcement lists more than 200 furniture and decoration items, including themed sets inspired by two of the anime's most visually distinct arcs: a dessert-themed Whole Cake Island collection and a futuristic Egghead collection. Mixing and matching those sets is how players customize the restaurant's look, and Bandai Namco specifically notes that characters who like a given design may start showing up as regulars — tying the decorating loop directly back into which of the 400-plus characters you'll actually see walk through the door.

In practice, that means the furniture and decor system isn't purely cosmetic. Picking a Whole Cake Island-themed dining room over an Egghead-themed one, for example, is framed by Bandai Namco as something that can shift which characters show an interest in the restaurant, giving players a reason to rebuild or re-theme a dining room beyond simply wanting a different look. No specific mechanical details — like whether themes affect ratings, income, or only which characters appear — have been published yet.

Is there cross-play or cross-save?

Neither of Bandai Namco's official announcements mentions cross-play, cross-save, or any shared progress between the five confirmed platforms. Based on what's been published so far, the safest assumption is that your save data stays tied to whichever platform you buy it on — Switch, Switch 2, PC, iOS, or Android — until Bandai Namco says otherwise. If that changes closer to launch, it would likely show up as an update to the same product pages this article links to above. For a game built around a slow-burn management loop rather than competitive multiplayer, the lack of confirmed cross-play is less likely to matter day-to-day than it would for an online shooter — most of what you'd lose by switching platforms is simply your restaurant's progress, not access to other players.

Watch the announcement trailer

Bandai Namco Entertainment America published the first look at the game in an announcement trailer on its official YouTube channel, which runs through the restaurant concept, the Baratie Number Two setting, and a handful of the 400-plus characters players will see. The trailer was published in both English and Japanese versions alongside the original June announcement.

Can you pre-order it now?

Yes. Bandai Namco's PC storefront and Steam's wishlist page for the game are both live ahead of the October 23 launch, and the Switch and Switch 2 versions are listed for pre-order through Nintendo's eShop. Bandai Namco has not detailed any pre-order bonus for the title, so early buyers appear to be getting the base game with no extra incentive disclosed so far. If a pre-order bonus is added later, it would most likely appear first on Bandai Namco's own regional store pages rather than through a third-party retailer. Because the mobile versions haven't had a price confirmed, it's also worth checking the App Store and Google Play listings directly closer to launch rather than assuming the €19.99 PC price will carry over one-to-one — Kairosoft's existing mobile catalog has used a mix of paid downloads and freemium models depending on the title and platform.

Kairosoft's management-sim pedigree

Kairosoft is best known for a long line of pixel-art management sims it has self-published on mobile for over a decade, typically centered on running a specific type of business — a game studio, a sports team, a hotel, a theme park — from a top-down, retro-styled interface. Grand Gourmet is the studio's first confirmed project built around an outside license as large as One Piece, and it's also launching on far more platforms at once, including Steam and both current Nintendo consoles, than Kairosoft's past mobile-first catalog typically has.

That pairing is part of why the announcement stood out when Bandai Namco first revealed it back in June: One Piece's game lineup has historically leaned toward large-scale action titles, arena fighters, and open-world adventures built around the Straw Hats' battles, not low-key simulation games about running a kitchen. Grand Gourmet is a deliberate change of pace for the license, aimed less at players chasing the next big One Piece combat game and more at fans who want a low-pressure, long-session sim they can return to in short bursts — closer in spirit to a cozy management game than to a typical anime tie-in.

Other games launching this week

One Piece: Grand Gourmet isn't the only anticipated release landing around October 23. Final Fantasy Resonance is due the same week across PC, PS5, Xbox and both Switch consoles, and Switch 2 owners also have Nintendo Switch Sports Resort arriving within days of Grand Gourmet, giving the platform a busy stretch of new releases heading into late October. For anyone juggling a release calendar, Grand Gourmet is the smaller, cheaper pickup of the three at a confirmed €19.99 on PC, versus the bigger-budget pricing typical of a full console RPG or first-party Nintendo sports title. That price gap also makes it one of the easier October releases to pick up alongside a bigger purchase rather than instead of one, especially for anyone already invested in the One Piece license who just wants a lighter, lower-commitment game to run in the background between longer sessions of something else.

What to do next

If you're planning to play on day one, wishlist the game on Steam or pre-order through Bandai Namco's store or your platform's eShop/App Store now, since only the PC price is officially confirmed at €19.99. Check Bandai Namco's own product pages for your region in the days before October 23 for the final console and mobile pricing, which the publisher has not posted yet, and watch the same pages for any word on cross-save support that hasn't been announced so far.
