Here’s the sitch: developer Dwarven Brothers and publisher 1312 Interactive’s ridiculous 1-4 player co-op physics-stealth game We Are So Cooked was set to launch on October 15, 2026, but plans have changed. But don’t worry, they’re going to make up for it big time.
We Are So Cooked will now launch early next year with not one but multiple maps, increasing the fun factor of disposing of a corpse with your friends (the original plan was for these maps to be added post-launch). With the additional development time, the game will also be more polished. Who doesn’t like that? [Insert that Miyamoto quote here.]
Last but not least, We Are So Cooked will take part in Steam Next Fest: October 2026 Edition (October 19-26), offering the first public hands-on demo. Prepare accordingly!
About We Are So Cooked
You ****** up. They’re dead and you’re going to be in big trouble. What do you do? Call your squad for help, that’s what. Ride or die… well, maybe just ride. Someone else did the dying (respectfully). The objective of We Are So Cooked is simple: get the dead body to the exit. The execution? That’s the hard part.
You and your friends need to work together to discreetly dispose of the body. Onlookers, obstacles, rag doll physics, and miscommunications are all active threats to exposing your crime. Unpredictable circumstances turn every small mistake into an absurd, escalating disaster. You better choose your squad wisely, or it’s the slammer for all y’all.
Key Features of We Are So Cooked:
- DEAD WEIGHT: A dead body is heavy and floppy. Dragging one alone is slow and leaves a bloody trail. Gather the squad to help move a body, but coordinate carefully — one wrong move and you’re going to drop it. Be mindful of doorframes, vases, and other obstacles that the body can get snagged on.
- THREATS: DO NOT GET CAUGHT. If anyone sees you carrying the body, they’ll scream. Security will show up and bust you. Look out for security cameras and guard dogs too.
- IMPROVISE YOUR ESCAPE: Turn the environment into your toolkit. Find a wheelchair to roll the body past reception. Use a mop to clean up blood trails. Throw a squeaky toy to distract a guard. You can hold an item, OR you can drag the body. You can’t do both. Make sure your buddies collaborate to the fullest.
- UNIQUE SCENARIOS: Every environment forces your team to adapt to new physics hazards and AI threats. Sneak through luxury hotel lobbies and balance the dead weight on top-heavy luggage carts. Survive freezing, heavily guarded bunkers where getting caught means the firing squad. You best stay on your toes wherever you and that corpse need to escape from.
We Are So Cooked launches on Windows PC (via Steam) in January 2027, and later on Nintendo Switch 1|2, PlayStation 5, and XBOX Series X|S. Wishlist the game now. Like, right now. Cool? Thanks.
