After smashing its Kickstarter goal back in 2022, *Mandragora*, now known as *Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree*, is nearly here. 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 release on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch on April 17, 2025. Originally slated for December 2023, the release date was postponed, but the game's backers have shown understanding, largely due to regular updates from developer Primal Game Studio. Some backers even had the chance to participate in a closed beta. The game's atmosphere is one of gloom and decay, where players battle the "Entropy" in a desperate bid to save a world that's winding down. Will you be the one to turn the tide?

Can You Pre-Order Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree on Console?
Currently, you cannot pre-order Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree on consoles. While the game is listed on the respective console storefronts, the pre-order option is not yet available. It's possible that a pre-order option will be added before the game's April 17, 2025 release. However, since the game's preview is exclusively for PC, any console pre-order bonuses are unlikely to include preview access.
Is Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree Getting a Physical Release?
In today's digital era, physical releases for PC games are rare. However, Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree does have a physical version available for both console and PC. The catch? It's only available to those who backed the Kickstarter campaign at a cost of $79. With the Kickstarter now closed, this option is no longer available. There's a chance that Primal Game Studio might release a broader physical edition in the future, but for now, you've missed out on this opportunity.
