Day-One Starter Guide

Updated 2026-08-28

On this page

This guide publishes at launch on September 22, 2026. We write starter guides from verified in-game content and community reports — never from speculation — so it goes live only once we've confirmed the actual mechanics.

What to expect

When this guide goes live, it will cover:

  • First-hour priorities — what to do before anything else.
  • Early money — the fastest legitimate income in the opening.
  • Beginner mistakes — the traps new players fall into.
  • Core mechanics — the systems the game doesn't explain well.

In the meantime

If you're new to the series, the original Graveyard Keeper's core loop (manage the graveyard, craft, quest, expand) is the foundation the sequel builds on. See what we know so far for confirmed details.

Check back at launch — September 22, 2026.
