Chucklefish has set its magic school life-sim for January 28, 2027, and it is landing everywhere at once: personal computers (PC) through [Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1846700/Witchbrook/?ref=unknowndivide.com), Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S, and now PlayStation 5 on day one. If you have been waiting on a cozy game with a proper witchy streak, this is the one to wishlist now. The date arrived with a brand new trailer during Nintendo's Indie World showcase, and the studio followed it with a [release date dev blog](https://www.witchbrook.com/release-date/?ref=unknowndivide.com) on the official site that fills in the details. Video: Chucklefish ## What Witchbrook is You enroll as a witch in training at Witchbrook College, in the seaside town of Mossport. Classes come with assignments in Alchemy, Potions, Astrology, Rituals, Demon Hunting and Tarot, and you earn merits, sit exams and unlock new spells on the road to graduation. To fund your studies you run your own witch business, crafting wares and delivering orders by moped until you earn your broom license. Outside class there are covenmates to befriend or date, a woodland cottage to renovate, a herb garden to plant, a Sunday market stall and seasons that change what the town needs. You can play solo or bring up to three friends in online co-op. Chucklefish developed it with co-development support from [Robotality](https://www.robotality.com/?ref=unknowndivide.com), all in handcrafted pixel art. ## What the new trailer shows Chucklefish says sharp eyes will catch faces and features that had not been shown before: - Witchbrook College's ghostly Chancellor, nicknamed The Deadmaster by students - The spellcasting mechanic and some new spells - Studying and the knowledge system - Potion making and tarot - Magical creatures roaming a strange stone structure - Early looks at covenmate storylines Spooky season also brought a new face. Kiara Chandra is a sardonic, gothy postgraduate student with a gift for the Arcane Arts and a practical way of handling the supernatural. Stay on her good side. ## Witchbrook release date, platforms and editions - **Release date:** January 28, 2027 - **Platforms:** PC, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S, PlayStation 5 - **Players:** single player, or online co-op for up to four - **Game Pass:** on Xbox Game Pass from day one, per the Chucklefish announcement - **Price:** digital launch price is on the [official blog](https://www.witchbrook.com/release-date/?ref=unknowndivide.com), with regional pricing to follow - **Physical:** a Standard Edition and a Collector's Edition are in the works and will follow a little after the digital launch, with details to come That physical plan is the collector angle.
