Witchbrook Release Pushed to January 2027, But Now Has a Firm Date

The cozy witch-life simulation Witchbrook has been delayed once more, but this time it comes with a concrete release date. Developer Chucklefish and Robotality announced that the game will now launch on January 28, 2027.

This marks the second delay for the title, which was initially expected in 2025 before being pushed to 2026. Unlike the previous postponement, the new date is a specific day, giving fans something to circle on their calendars. A new trailer accompanied the announcement, showcasing the game's detailed pixel art and magical atmosphere.

Witchbrook first surfaced in 2017 as an untitled project described as a blend of Stardew Valley and Harry Potter. Since then, it has undergone significant changes, including a visual overhaul revealed in 2020. The long development journey has tested the patience of its community, but the developers expressed gratitude for the support, stating they used the extra time to craft a handcrafted experience they are proud of.

The game will be available on Steam for $25, with physical editions planned for a later date. Players can look forward to enrolling in Witchbrook College, exploring the town of Mossport, and immersing themselves in a richly detailed pixel art world.

With a firm date finally set, the question remains: will Witchbrook deliver on its years of promise? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
