According to retailer listings in Europe and Australia, Overcooked and Overcooked 2 will be receiving a combined Nintendo Switch physical release later this year in November. The description over on JB Hi-Fi says the bundle will include the "base game" for both titles, but sadly makes no mention of the DLC.
Get ready for a double helping of cooperative cooking as Overcooked! and Overcooked! 2 come together in chaotic harmony.
There's also no information about whether or not both games will be on a single game card. We guess we'll find out when Team17 makes a more official announcement about this two-in-one title that is currently listed for 26th November. In the meantime, here's the Australian box art:

I've been meaning to play Overcooked, was tempted to get the physical versions but never did, now with this version containing both games, would be the perfect version to rev up. If both games are on the cart, that would be swell!
Hoping it is complete with the DLC and all on the cart. If its has a download code i will be painfully disappointed.
If both games are on the card with all DLC, it makes me happy I never bought either of the games yet and will get them now.
Ayyyy I've been meaning to get Overcooked 2 physically at some point. This sounds rad
If both games are on the cartridge, I might buy this edition, as I'm yet to play any of the Overcooked games. Heard a lot of great things about them.
Nothing to see here.
It only includes the base games. If the DLC was included on the cartridge (as it bloody well should have) I would have double-dipped.
In fact, according to JB Hi-Fi's product page, it only includes the base games for both games. Does that mean that the first game won't include the DLC at all?!
The now out-of-print physical edition for the first game was called "Overcooked: Special Edition" whereas this package makes no mention of the first game being the complete edition, and that is a legitimate concern. If that is the case, then this is a lousy, lousy rip-off of a package (it costs AU$69 on Switch for some reason while it costs AU$49 on the other platforms), and the separate physical edition of the first game (if you can find it) would be a better overall package.
If it truly is only the base games then I'll pass. I would love to have both games with all of the DLC on cart. I would buy it day 1.
I really hope this is both games on a single cartridge, I never got them before, but a bundle like that would probably make me get one.
If one of the games is a download code, that’s an instant no though. I’d be disappointed too if the dlc wasn’t included. I wouldn’t have thought they’d be too big to fit on a single cartridge, and it would clearly make a lot more people want to get it.
If overcooked 2 has the dlc I'm in
@SpookyPotato "If overcooked 2 has the dlc I'm in"
Count me interested as well.
Double packs are becoming more common the Switch than you think! How they work is that you insert the game cartridge, and both game titles appear on the home screen. This is as opposed to having a single title that when launched, gives you the option to play either game.
Examples include:
The upcoming Dragon Quest I & II & III collection might be the first case of a triple pack, too.
@RupeeClock Reminds me of the Borderlands Handsome Collection for PS4. A 2in1 deal. Man, they need to put that on the Switch.
@RupeeClock : Hasbro Game Night is a triple pack, containing Monopoly, Risk, and Trivial Pursuit Live, so it is certainly not unprecedented.
I would love a cartridge release of the classic DOOM games, including DOOM, DOOM II, Final DOOM, DOOM 64, and DOOM 3 (they would all fit comfortably on a 16GB cart with room to spare). I would happily pay full retail price for such a release (though I hope that they would reinstate the Nazi imagery in the secret levels for DOOM II; I don't see why the rest of the world should have to suffer from this censorship).
I have no idea whether they plan on releasing Final DOOM at some stage or not. Ideally, they should have just included the first two DOOMs (and the DOOM II Master Levels), plus Final DOOM, and charged the same amount as DOOM 3, rather than selling them separately (and wasting storage as these games all run on the same engine).
Furthermore, I would also love a physical release of Hamster's ports of Nintendo's arcade classics, though such a release would certainly spawn a lot of icons!
Euro cover already came along on Twitter last Tuesday!
