Evaluation

Kitchen Wars launched on Steam on April 16, 2025, and has since received a steady stream of content updates. In June 2025, the team shipped a substantial update adding a new single-player Survival Mode, a Practice Mode, a new PvP item (the Frost Bomb), and a Global Leaderboard. In December 2025, the Viking Update arrived with free new skins, bug fixes, and stability improvements. Most recently, on April 23, 2026, the game launched on Nintendo Switch — a significant platform expansion that the team had been quietly working on for several months. In the Nintendo Switch announcement post (April 22, 2026), the developer also mentioned that improvements like split Joy-Con play are still in the works. Throughout this period, the developer has consistently closed posts with phrases like "more updates soon" and "more fun, more chaos, and more free things to win are on the way," indicating ongoing support. The October 2025 post also explicitly stated: "We'll continue improving Kitchen Wars while developing North Hunt." No end-of-development announcement has been made.
