This is one of our biggest updates so far.
The Public Kitchens Update is all about bringing players together properly.
Public lobbies, a full server browser, rebuilt online systems, and new ways to communicate - all designed to make multiplayer more reliable, more social, and more controllable 👇
🖥️ SERVER BROWSER & LOBBY SYSTEM
🔎 Server Browser Added
You can now see and choose active games instead of joining blindly.
• Browse public lobbies in real time
• View lobby details before joining (player count, permissions, session state)
• Join or leave sessions freely
• Faster, clearer matchmaking flow
This system replaces the old invite-only experience and opens the game up for drop-in multiplayer.
🌐 NETWORK OVERHAUL
🚀 Complete Online Infrastructure Rework
We’ve migrated all multiplayer systems to Epic Online Services.
• Improved connection stability across regions
• VPN-friendly networking
• Reduced latency and desync issues
• More reliable session discovery
This lays the groundwork for future multiplayer features and larger-scale sessions.
🗣️ COMMUNICATION & SOCIAL TOOLS
🎤 Voice Chat
Talk to your teammates directly in-game for faster coordination, callouts, and recovery when things go wrong.
💬 In-Game Text Chat
A lightweight text chat system for communication without leaving the kitchen or using external tools.
🎭 EMOTES & PLAYER EXPRESSION
🕺 5 New Emotes
New emotes let you communicate intent, celebrate wins, or just mess around between orders.
• Emote system performance improved
• Additional polish and optimization applied for smoother usage
🎨 VISUAL POLISH & PRESENTATION
✨ Visual Update Pass
A broad visual improvement pass across the game, focused on clarity and presentation rather than new mechanics.
• Cleaner visual hierarchy
• Improved readability of on-screen elements
• More consistent visual language across menus and gameplay
👤 Improved Character Model
Character visuals have been refined with better proportions and overall polish.
We plan to keep improving the character model over time and introduce a more in-depth character customization system in future updates.
🛡️ PERMISSIONS & ANTI-GRIEFING
🔐 New Permission System
Public lobbies need structure - this system gives hosts control.
• Define what other players can interact with
• Prevent griefing and disruptive behavior
• Customize rules per session
• Works with both public and private lobbies
🛠️ BUG FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS
• Fixed a staff payment bug - staff now correctly deducts money as intended
• General optimization and performance improvements across the game
