Hi there! A few more changes that have improved the graphics and interface of the game.

• A bug where some players on certain video cards experienced trees and bushes not drawn has been fixed.
  
• The design of the records list has been slightly modified to fit all the necessary fields.
  
• Synchronization of the selected server for players in the squad has been fixed.

What is Cuisine Royale?

Cuisine Royale is a ‘battle royale’ shooter. Find out more information about the game on the official website or on the Cuisine Royale Steam page.

Is the game free to play or do I need a subscription?

The game is free to play until at least the end of Early Access, and doesn’t require subscription. Those who would love to support the development of the game, can purchase ingredients to create masks, suits, pants and other cosmetic items, and a Season Pass, which will allow you to get more rewards and level up faster!

Do I need to register to play Cuisine Royale?

To play Cuisine Royale you can use either your Gaijin.Net account or play via Steam.

What is the Gaijin.NET Agent and how can I automatically update the game?

The Gaijin.NET Agent is recommended for set up at first launch of the game. The Gaijin.NET Agent is harmless and safe. It tracks updates in Cuisine Royale and downloads them to the game to its actual version (as well as any other Gaijin games installed on a PC). You can always turn off Automatic updates in the launcher settings.
Steam players can update and launch the game directly from the Steam Library, without using the launcher and the automatic updater. Though, we still recommend the use of automatic updates, launching the game via the launcher. It will allow you to update the game to the actual version at any time.

Where can I find the system requirements?

The actual system requirements can be found in the ‘About’ page on the game website or on the game’s Steam page.

How can I change the language in the game?

You can switch the language in the Launcher or in the game settings (right click the game title in Steam library – Properties – Language) if playing via Steam.

How many players can participate in one battle and what modes are available?

30 players take part in each session. Currently we have three modes available:

• SOLO – a deathmatch where each player fights for themselves.
  
• DUO – battles for 2-player squads.
  
• SQUAD – battles for 3-player and 4-player squads. You can also try yourself in these battles fighting alone or in a team of two players.

Can I play with friends?

Yes, you can find contacts in the game main menu, add other players to your friends list and invite them to join a squad to play together in DUO (2 players) and SQUAD (3-4 players) modes.

What are the minions for and why do they follow players?

In games where both first person and third person views are available, the latter gives an advantage. A player can spot an opponent from behind an obstacle, while the opponent doesn’t know he’s been seen by his adversary nearby. In Cuisine Royale each player has a minion, which carries a camera in third person view. The third person view camera-man reveals the location of a player when looking from a corner. So be on the lookout. If you notice a butterfly or a small helicopter suddenly appearing from nowhere – you are being watched. If you switch to first person view, your minion will land on your left shoulder (you can see it, using the mouse plus the ‘C’ key).

Can I choose a server to play on?

Yes, there are servers available for Europe, East Asia, Eastern Europe and North America.

Can payed items provide me with any gameplay advantages?

In the game shop you can purchase a Season Pass and ingredients to create cosmetic items. They do not give any gameplay advantages, neither do they improve any skills in the game.

Does the game feature an anti-cheat system?

Yes, in Cuisine Royale we use the EasyAntiCheat system, which prevents unfair play and fraud. EasyAntiCheat follows a zero-tolerance strategy for unfair play in Cuisine Royale, and any account ban will be permanent.

Hello, gourmets!

You already know how to use utensils to attack your enemies and defend from gunfire - time to learn how to cook!

Earn special ingredients and utensils in battles and cook unique “dishes” that have the spirit of the traditional national cuisine of the respective nation.

The first season is devoted to Italy - here we go with a hundred Italian recipes.

These are not the familiar pizzas or pasta which already can be found on the battlefield, but more valuable game items: fancy pants, stylish tights, elegant or scary Venetian masks, stencils for provocative graffiti and magnificent gravestones.


Players will go from an apprentice to a chef starting with simple recipes and moving forward to more complex ones.


You will need special ingredients to cook unusual dishes. There are standard ingredients such as “enemy tears” and rare, “reviews of a frightened critic” may be gained for completing daily tasks. More complex recipes will require specific utensils such as the deadly meat grinder that can be obtained for completing weekly tasks. Some recipes will also require a premium ingredient - during the Italian season it will be the “Godfather’s book of recipes” - it can be purchased from the in game store.


Items that were cooked with these recipes do not provide any game advantage, but are designed to emphasize their owners style and individuality.


In games that have both first and third person view, the latter gives specific in-game advantage. It allows you to watch your opponent entering cover, while they are unaware that they are being watched.

Every player in Cuisine Royale now has a minion with a camera that can uncover the position of a player who is peeking around a corner. So if you see a butterfly or a drone - you should know that you are being watched.

• Fixed ‘Chief’ to ‘Chef’ again.
  
• Respawn radius for squad mates has been reduced from 350 to 200m for duo and squad mode.
  
• Incorrect display of the number of kills has been fixed.

• Changes for the displaying of the debriefing screen: the time to display the player's statistics has been reduced from 10 to 5 seconds.
  
• Inertia moments and calculation of the center of gravity in jeeps has been improved.

  Improved initial loading time.

Hi there!
Some of you Steam users out there have recently told us that you’d like the option of not starting the game through the launcher and automatically updating it through the Gaijin.Net Agent . Well, we’ve heard you! Now, if you should so desire, you can update and start the game directly from Steam.
We still recommend, however, that you take advantage of automatic updates by launching the game through the "Cuisine Royale Launсher" - this will make sure your version of the game is always up to date!

Hi everyone!

Good news - we’ve been able to find, and fix, several bugs which would cause the game to crash.

• Client crashes which would occur when leaving a session have been fixed.
  
• Crashes on old, unsupported graphics cards have been fixed.
