One Piece: Grand Gourmet launches October 23, 2026 on Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, Steam and mobile for $19.99, a restaurant-management sim from Kairosoft built around Sanji and the Straw Hat Crew running a second floating Baratie, with more than 400 One Piece characters appearing as staff and customers in pixel art for the first time in any game.
What Kind of Game One Piece: Grand Gourmet Actually Is
Grand Gourmet is a management sim, not a brawler or an RPG — the closest point of comparison is Kairosoft’s own back catalog (Game Dev Story, Grocery Story), rebuilt around One Piece. Players take the role of a new hire at “Baratie Number Two,” a floating restaurant run alongside Sanji.
The loop is built from three systems: sourcing and combining ingredients to create new dishes, hiring and assigning staff from a roster of over 400 One Piece characters, and decorating the restaurant’s interior with more than 200 furniture and decoration items.
Why a Cooking Sim Fits One Piece Specifically
This isn’t a random genre pairing. Food has been load-bearing in One Piece since its first chapter in 1997 — Sanji’s entire arc is built on finding the All Blue, a mythical sea where every kind of fish from every ocean supposedly swims together, and nearly every arc stops for at least one meal that matters to the plot.
Kairosoft licensing a management sim onto that foundation is a much more natural fit than it would be for most long-running shonen series, and it explains why the roster leans on “staff and customers” rather than combat: the source material already treats food and hospitality as central, not comic relief. The manga itself surpassed 600 million copies in worldwide circulation with the release of Volume 114 in March 2026, a scale few other franchises can offer a licensor.

Is This the First One Piece Management Sim?
