Following its successful Kickstarter campaign in 2022, *Mandragora* has evolved into *Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree* and is now on the brink of release. If you're considering pre-ordering, here's everything you need to know about the release date and the enticing 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 PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch on April 17, 2025. Initially slated for a December 2023 release, the game faced delays, but Primal Game Studio has kept its backers informed throughout the process. The developer even provided some with access to a closed beta, which has helped maintain a positive relationship with its community.
In *Mandragora*, players will engage in a battle against the ominous "Entropy" to save a world that's gradually unraveling. With the game's dark and foreboding atmosphere, the challenge to save the world feels both urgent and uncertain.
All Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree Pre-Order Rewards and Editions

Despite some confusion on the Steam store page, there are no Deluxe-exclusive pre-order bonuses. Both the Standard and Deluxe editions offer access to Game Previews 1 and 2.
Can You Pre-Order Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree on Console?
Currently, *Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree* cannot be pre-ordered on consoles. While it is listed on the respective console storefronts, the pre-order option is unavailable. It's possible that pre-orders may open closer to the April 17, 2025 release date, but any console pre-order bonuses likely won't include access to the game previews, which are exclusive to the PC version.
Is Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Getting a Physical Release?
In today's digital age, physical releases for PC games are rare, with most titles available exclusively through platforms like Steam, the Epic Games Store, or GOG. However, *Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree* does have a physical edition for both console and, surprisingly, PC. The catch? It was only available to those who backed the game on Kickstarter at a price of $79. With the Kickstarter campaign now closed, this option is no longer available. While Primal Game Studio might consider a broader physical release in the future, for now, this opportunity has passed.
