Confirmed Graveyard Keeper 2 Gameplay Features
Official sources confirm graveyard management, zombie-powered production, Town restoration, and fortifications with undead-army combat.
The sequel expands the management loop into a 3D presentation. This page stays at the system level because exact recipes, progression routes, quest steps, and optimal strategies require the released build.

Management and automation
Graveyard work remains a central system, while zombie workers support production and automation. Official descriptions establish those pillars but do not yet support a complete worker-placement or production-chain guide.
The Town and its defenses
Official material describes restoring the Town, building fortifications, and using an undead army in combat. We keep those as confirmed high-level systems until the released build makes the rules reproducible.
Why deep guides wait
A long page is not a complete guide if the underlying version, inputs, outputs, and failure cases cannot be checked. Recipes, quest walkthroughs, maps, NPC schedules, and best-build claims stay in research until release evidence passes.
