Brisbane, Australia – May 19, 2026. Greenheart Games 💚 has released their first major new update, A New Hue, for their critically acclaimed fantasy business management sim, Tavern Keeper 🍻
Following its hugely successful Early Access launch, and recently winning the Best New Game Award at Gamescom LATAM BIG Festival, the A New Hue update delivers the first major roadmap update and creative features that deepen the game's blend of chaotic management and cozy sandbox creativity.
Tavern Keeper has always celebrated player expression with its extensive Design Mode, but A New Hue hands players the keys to a creative engine unlike anything the game has offered before. The new Tavern Keeper Workshop delivers a centralised hub to browse, share, and automatically sync thousands of community creations directly into their game and the new Colour Picker gives even more freedom to creators.
A New Hue also introduces the Arcane Order System, bringing a touch of magic to the mundane: sign supply contracts with traders and stock deliveries will take care of themselves with little manual oversight required. For players on the go, Tavern Keeper is now Steam Deck Verified and has full controller support, a milestone that required a significant technical undertaking. Together with many quality-of-life changes and meaningful CPU performance improvements, the whole experience feels smoother than ever before.
Released into Early Access in November 2025, Tavern Keeper 🍻 is a universally praised cosy-chaotic management sim with a powerful decoration sandbox and a fully narrated storybook RPG voiced by Steven Pacey. Its expansive campaign takes players across a vibrant fantasy world filled with distinctive cultures and characters. Whether running a cosy neighbourhood local or a ruthlessly efficient gold-minting machine, the choice is for players to make.
Tavern Keeper 🍻 is available as a Steam Early Access title. Its newly unveiled Tavern Keeper Workshop can be found here. To receive the latest news about the game, they can follow Greenheart Games 💚 via Tavern Keeper 🍻, or on the official website.
