Lesquin, 21st February 2022 – NACON and development studio Cyanide are pleased to announce their new simulator from the LIFE range of games: Chef Life: A Restaurant Simulator, in collaboration with the renowned MICHELIN Guide. Offering both a management and simulation gaming experience, Chef Life: A Restaurant Simulator immerses players in the life of a restaurateur. They will need to hone their cooking skills, manage their team and make the best decisions for their establishment. The game will release on 7 October on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch™ and PC.
French development studio Cyanide is making realism a core part of the game. As committed foodies, the developers wanted to create the first cooking game that recreates the true life of a restaurateur.
In Chef Life, players must ensure top quality in terms of ingredients, dishes served and efficient management of the table service, while keeping an eye on their budget to improve the reputation of their restaurant.
Boasting a polished customisation system, players can choose the appearance of their avatar, kitchen components, restaurant decor, and the menu they offer to customers from a selection of some 80 French and Italian dishes. Culinary and entrepreneurial skills will be essential to satisfy customers, but it is above all the quality of the dishes cooked by the player that will enable him to receive a MICHELIN Guide Star.
In this regard, for the first time in a video game, the MICHELIN Guide, an international reference in gastronomic recommendations, has advised the Cyanide studio to integrate in-game mechanics and content that offer real gastronomic challenges to players. Chef Life will include a rating system that reflects the player's ambition and excellence. The player must go to great lengths to satisfy the most demanding customers in order to earn a MICHELIN Star from the famous Guide and make their restaurant a must-visit establishment thanks to the quality of its cuisine!
Chef Life: A Restaurant Simulator will be available on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch™ and PC on 7 October 2022.
