The Witch's Bakery Release Date: Platforms & Prices

What Is The Witch's Bakery Release Date?

The Witch's Bakery release date was October 14, 2026, so you can already begin Lunne’s magical adventure digitally. If you’re checking The Witch's Bakery release date before buying, pay attention to the format: physical editions have a separate release date of October 16, 2026. That two-day difference matters if you’ve been waiting for a boxed copy instead of a download.

Developed by Sunny Lab and published by Silver Lining Interactive, this cozy adventure RPG follows a witch opening a bakery in modern Paris. Baking, friendships, and emotional storytelling share the spotlight, with magic connecting the customers you serve to the adventures you take beyond the counter.

Here’s the release schedule at a glance:

Edition	Release date	Platforms
Digital	October 14, 2026	Windows PC through Steam, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2
Physical	October 16, 2026	PS5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2
Mobile	Coming later through Crunchyroll Game Vault	iOS and Android

The digital launch has already happened, so you can move straight to choosing a platform. Mobile follows a different schedule from the October PC and console releases.

For anyone comparing editions, October 14 is the digital date, while October 16 is the physical date. Keep that distinction in mind when checking delivery estimates or deciding whether to download the game today.

Platforms, Physical Editions, and the Mobile Release

The Witch's Bakery release date covers a broad PC and console launch, including both Nintendo Switch systems. Your main purchasing decision is whether you want a digital copy or one of the three boxed console editions.

Platform	Digital edition	Physical edition
Windows PC through Steam	Released October 14, 2026	—
PlayStation 5	Released October 14, 2026	October 16, 2026 release
Xbox Series X/S	Released October 14, 2026	—
Nintendo Switch	Released October 14, 2026	October 16, 2026 release
Nintendo Switch 2	Released October 14, 2026	October 16, 2026 release; Game Key Card

Check the Nintendo Switch 2 packaging carefully: its physical edition uses a Game Key Card. That format is worth noticing before you order, particularly if the physical format itself is part of the appeal.

Physical copies are offered through Silver Lining Direct and local retailers. Compare the edition name and platform before purchasing; Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 appear separately in the physical lineup.

On PC, the Steam version supports Windows. Mac does not have a launch version. If you’re planning to play on a computer, check the Windows requirements before buying rather than assuming the mobile announcement also means a Mac edition.

What About iOS and Android?

The mobile version is coming through Crunchyroll Game Vault after the October PC and console launch. Keep that service in mind when following the mobile release, since it is the announced route for both iOS and Android.

If you want to play immediately, choose one of the released PC or console editions. If you specifically want the phone version, follow Sunny Lab’s mobile announcements for its separate rollout.

You can browse The Witch’s Bakery on Steam or view the Nintendo Switch digital edition when you’re ready to choose.

Price, Launch Discount, and Edition Costs

Alongside The Witch's Bakery release date, the other useful number is its $19.99 regular digital price in the United States. The digital launch discount is 10%, bringing the discounted US price to $17.99.

Region or offer	Digital price
United States regular price	$19.99
United Kingdom regular price	£16.99
Euro pricing	€19.99
US price with the 10% launch discount	$17.99

Check the sale deadline on your chosen platform before purchasing.

Regional pricing is part of the digital release, so use your local storefront’s displayed price when budgeting. Currency conversion alone won’t necessarily match the amount charged in your region.

Physical editions cost more than digital copies because boxed releases involve manufacturing, packaging, and distribution. Compare the actual retailer price with the digital offer before choosing your format.

Don’t assume the $19.99 digital price also applies to a boxed PS5 or Nintendo copy. Treat those as separate purchases with their own displayed prices, and check that the version in your cart matches the hardware you own.

What You’ll Actually Do in Lunne’s Bakery

With The Witch's Bakery release date behind us for digital editions, the next question is what kind of game you’re getting. Expect a story-focused adventure with approachable gameplay, baking activities, and a daily rhythm built around life in Paris.

Lunne can see into people’s hearts and use magic to heal their emotions. Her bakery gives that power a practical outlet: the bread she makes becomes part of helping people work through their struggles.

The day is divided into three phases:

Daily phase	Main activities
Daytime	Work in the bakery, serve customers, and help them with magic
Evening	Explore Paris, build relationships, and enter troubled hearts
Night	Rest, improve magic, decorate the bakery, and spend time in the atelier

The story moves forward through these days as Lunne earns experience, money, and fame while meeting people and helping them.

Explore Paris Between Bakery Shifts

Outside the bakery, you can visit districts with their own characters, shops, and activities. Locations include Montmartre, the Grands Boulevards, and the riverside booksellers around Le Quai des Bouquinistes.

Visit the booksellers for recipe books, and spend time with characters during your evenings. Those activities connect the bakery routine to Lunne’s wider life in the city.

Keep the narrative focus in mind before buying. The game’s activities are designed to support its characters and story, with a structure reminiscent of visual novels. Choose it for conversations, relationships, and emotional journeys if those are the parts you enjoy in an adventure.

Enter Heart Palaces and Build Relationships

Some emotional struggles take Lunne into a Heart Palace, a magical space where thoughts and feelings become tangible. Inside, she guides a personified Emotion toward the Heart’s Cradle and discovers an ingredient needed for healing bread.

That gives the baking a personal purpose. A customer’s story can carry you beyond the shop, into their inner world, and back toward making something that helps them.

Friendships are central, and Estelle is the romance option. You meet her in Chapter 2, with the relationship depending on your narrative choices. Pay attention to those choices if you want to pursue her story.

For launch-week planning, allow roughly 25–30+ hours, depending on reading speed and playstyle. Set aside time to read the dialogue and follow the relationships. Plan your single-player playthrough around your own reading pace.

PC Requirements and the Demo Save Warning

Before buying on Steam, compare your computer with these requirements. The Witch's Bakery release date is only part of getting ready: Windows compatibility, available storage, and an old demo save can all affect your start.

Component	Minimum	Recommended
Operating system	Windows 10 or higher, 64-bit	Windows 10 or higher, 64-bit
Processor	AMD Athlon X4 or Intel Core i5-4460	AMD Ryzen 3 or Intel i5 Skylake
Memory	8 GB RAM	8 GB RAM
Graphics	Nvidia GTX 950 or AMD R7 370	Nvidia GTX 970 or AMD RX 570
DirectX	Version 11	Version 11
Available storage	20 GB	20 GB

Reserve the required 20 GB of available space before installation. That is the PC storage requirement; the Nintendo downloads have separate sizes.

Steam also includes full controller support, achievements, and Steam Cloud. If you prefer playing an adventure with a controller, that support is part of the PC version.

Played the Demo? Start a New Game

Demo saves are incompatible with the full game. The full release can recognize an old demo save and display a Continue option, but loading that save can eventually leave the game stuck.

Before beginning the Steam version:

1. Right-click The Witch’s Bakery in your Steam library.
2. Open Properties, then Game Versions & Betas.
3. Make sure Default Public Version is selected.
4. Launch the game and choose New Game instead of continuing the demo save.

The demo branch has been removed, but that does not remove an existing demo save. Seeing Continue on the menu therefore does not mean your old progress is suitable for the full release.

If you run into another issue, check Steam Discussions for an existing report before creating a new thread. Add your experience to a matching report so the team can track the problem together.
