Battle Chef Brigade s Deluxe update does more than just reheat the game

Battle Chef Brigade Deluxe

Battle Chef Brigade pairs combo-based hunting and puzzle-based cooking in a hand drawn, fantasy adventure. Cook your way into the Brigade while subduing Victusia’s destructive monsters. Follow Mina and Thrash in the single-player campaign or challenge your friends in Local Multiplayer and Daily Cook-Offs.

Despite following its development closely, reading Tom Sykes’ cheerful review in November and picking it up as part of Twitch Prime’s big summer giveaway, it wasn’t until last evening that I finally tried out the gorgeous little puzzle-brawler hybrid that is Battle Chef Brigade. It charmed the everloving heck out of me for hours on end. My belated thanks to the chefs at Trinket Studios.

Officially relaunched yesterday as Battle Chef Brigade Deluxe (a free update for all), it’s now a meatier, tastier game than before. Now featuring local multiplayer, a new playable character (Necromancer-chef Ziggy, seen above) and a bundle of new play-modes, it’s probably worth taking a sniff at now. Below, the spicy new trailer for the game.
