Revision 1

Graveyard Keeper 2 was reviewed from 14 September 2026, eight days before its release, and players began rating it when it launched on 22 September. By the morning after launch it held a Very Positive user rating on the PC storefront, and critic aggregates sat in the low 70s on one aggregator and in the low 80s on another. The figures on this page are dated snapshots and will move as more reviews arrive.

Player Ratings

On the PlayStation Store most ratings were at either end of the scale: 74 percent gave five stars and 12 percent gave one.

Critic Scores

Two review aggregators had collected critic scores by 23 September 2026. One listed a score of 73 from eight reviews, four positive, three mixed and one negative, which it files as mixed or average. The other showed an average of 83 from 17 reviews, with 76 percent of critics recommending the game. Before launch, the first seven scored reviews collected by 21 September had clustered around seven out of ten, split three positive, three mixed and one negative.

What Reviewers Praised and Criticised

The lowest pre-release verdict called the grind unoptimised. The developer had said before launch that there would be less grinding than in the first game, softened by a new talent system; see Technology Tree.
