After smashing its Kickstarter goal back in 2022, *Mandragora*, now known as *Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree*, is on the cusp of its much-anticipated release. If you're considering pre-ordering, here's everything you need to know about *Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree*'s release date and the exciting pre-order rewards.
What Is Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree’s Release Date?
Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree is set to launch on April 17, 2025, across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Originally slated for December 2023, the release was delayed, but Primal Game Studio has kept its backers in the loop, even providing some with access to a closed beta. The game's community has shown understanding and patience, a testament to the developer's transparency and engagement. In Mandragora, you'll take on the role of a warrior fighting against the "Entropy" to save a world teetering on the brink of collapse. The game's dark and atmospheric setting adds to the tension of this epic battle.

Can You Pre-Order Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree on Console?
As of now, you cannot pre-order Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree on consoles. Although the game is listed on the respective console storefronts, the pre-order option is not available. It's possible that a pre-order option might become available before the April 17, 2025, release. However, since the game's previews are PC-exclusive, any potential console pre-order bonuses are unlikely to include preview access.
Is Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Getting a Physical Release?
In today's digital age, physical releases for PC games are rare, with most being available only through platforms like Steam, the Epic Games Store, or GOG. For Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree, a physical version is indeed available, but with a catch. It's currently exclusive to those who backed the game on Kickstarter, priced at $79. Since the Kickstarter campaign has ended, this physical edition is no longer available for new orders. While there's a possibility that Primal Game Studio may release a broader physical edition in the future, for now, it's a missed opportunity for those who didn't back the project.
