All You Can Eat" update for Nintendo Switch (often referenced by its NSP file format in homebrew circles) provides the definitive, remastered version of the franchise, combining all content from Overcooked! and Overcooked! 2 with modern performance improvements. Key Features & Enhancements Overcooked! All You Can Eat Nintendo Switch Review
The story of Overcooked! All You Can Eat is a whimsical, high-stakes journey across two epic campaigns where your culinary skills are the only thing standing between the Onion Kingdom and total destruction. The Ever Peckish Rises (Campaign 1)
The tale begins with a dire threat: a towering, gluttonous beast made of spaghetti and meatballs known as the Ever Peckish.
The Impossible Feast: Your initial attempt to satisfy the beast's hunger fails miserably. To save the kingdom, the anthropomorphic Onion King opens a portal, whisking you back to 1993.
Culinary Boot Camp: You must travel through time and space—cooking on pirate ships, haunted houses, and even space stations—to hone your teamwork and speed. Overcooked
The Final Showdown: Once your skills are sharp enough, you return to the present to face the Ever Peckish one last time in a definitive showdown to save the world. Rise of the Unbread (Campaign 2)
Just as peace returns, the Onion King accidentally triggers a new catastrophe.
The Forbidden Recipe: While reading aloud from the legendary Necro-nomnom-icon, the King inadvertently raises an army of zombie-like slices of bread called the Unbread.
The Quest for the Cure: These carb-hungry monsters are knocking at the castle doors. To stop them, you must journey across new, even more hazardous landscapes—from wizard academies to alien planets—to find a way to undo the King's blunder. What’s New in the "All You Can Eat" Update?
This definitive edition on Nintendo Switch isn't just a collection; it's a complete remaster that bundles both main games and all DLC.
Remastered for 4K: The original Overcooked! has been completely rebuilt in the Overcooked! 2 engine, featuring crisp visuals and improved performance.
Online Everything: For the first time, you can play the original Overcooked! levels online with full cross-platform multiplayer support.
New Content: The update includes exclusive new levels and characters, such as the "World Food Festival" levels and celebrity chefs. Connect your Switch to the internet
Assist Mode: A new mode allows for a more relaxed experience with longer timers, slower order decay, and the ability to skip particularly difficult levels.
On the original Nintendo Switch (non-OLED), load times between levels could stretch to 20-30 seconds. Update 1.8.1 introduced asset streaming optimizations, cutting load times down by roughly 40%. For users running the NSP from internal storage (NAND) or a high-speed microSD card, the improvement is even more noticeable.
Team17 has officially announced that Overcooked: All You Can Eat is now “feature complete” as of Q1 2024. No major content DLC is planned. However, minor stability updates (v1.0.14 etc.) may drop if Nintendo releases a system firmware that breaks backwards compatibility.
For now, v1.0.13 is the definitive version of the game on the Switch platform. If you have the base NSP, grab this update NSP to experience the full, polished, chaotic couch co-op masterpiece as the developers intended.
For the uninitiated, "NSP" stands for Nintendo Submission Package. It is the official digital format used by Nintendo for downloadable titles from the eShop. In the context of this article, the Overcooked: All You Can Eat Switch NSP Update refers to the patch files that bring version 1.0.0 up to the current build (e.g., 1.9.0 or higher).
Note: Team17 (the developer) regularly pushes updates to squash bugs related to online connectivity, level progression, and controller desync – all critical for a game that relies on split-second timing.
If you are applying the Overcooked: All You Can Eat Switch NSP Update manually (via homebrew tools like Awoo Installer or Tinwoo), here are the technical specifications you need to know:
| Component | File Size | | :--- | :--- | | Base Game NSP | ~4.5 GB | | Latest Update (NSP) | ~1.2 GB – 1.8 GB | | Required Firmware | FW 15.0.1 or higher | | Required RAM | 1.5 GB free (for update installation) |
Important: Always ensure that your update file matches the Base Game’s Title ID (e.g., 01001D500E0C6000 for the US region). Mismatched IDs will result in a "Software closed due to an error" message.
