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 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 April 17, 2025, across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Originally slated for a December 2023 release, the date has been pushed back, yet the community remains supportive, thanks to the transparent communication from developer Primal Game Studio. Some backers even had the privilege of participating in a closed beta, which has kept the excitement alive. The game challenges players to combat the "Entropy" in a world that's slowly unraveling. With its somber aesthetic, saving the world will be a gripping challenge.
All Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree Pre-Order Rewards and Editions

- Prepurchase Pet Follower
- Prepurchase Armor Transmog Set
- Prepurchase Exclusive In-Game Quest
- Instant access to Game Preview 1
- Access to Game Preview 2 in early 2025
Game Preview 1 is significantly larger than the game's demo, being four times its size. Game Preview 2, while not yet available, is expected to be released soon.
The game comes in two editions:
Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree Standard Edition ($39.99)
This edition includes:
- Base game

It's worth noting that, despite the phrasing on the Steam store page, there aren't any Deluxe-exclusive pre-order bonuses. Both editions grant access to Mandragora Preview 1 and the upcoming Preview 2, a move that sets it apart from many AAA titles that restrict preview access to deluxe editions.

Can You Pre-Order Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree on Console?
Currently, pre-orders for Mandragora on consoles are not available, although the game is listed on the respective storefronts. A pre-order option might become available closer to the April 17, 2025 release date. However, given that the game's preview is PC-exclusive, 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 digital platforms like Steam, the Epic Games Store, or GOG. However, Mandragora does offer a physical version for both console and PC, but this is exclusive to those who backed the Kickstarter campaign at a $79 price point. Since the Kickstarter has closed, this option is no longer available. There's a possibility that Primal Game Studio may release a wider physical edition in the future, but for now, that ship has sailed.
