Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree Lands on Nintendo Switch This September
Primal Game Studio has announced that its debut metroidvania title, Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree, will arrive on Nintendo Switch on September 4th. This news follows the game's initial release earlier this spring on PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, which included text localization for various regions.
A Dark Fantasy Journey Awaits
Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree plunges players into a grim, dark fantasy world where humanity has been forced to seek refuge behind formidable walls after a devastating monster invasion. Players take on the role of a brave individual who ventures beyond these fortifications, determined to confront the forces of entropy threatening their existence.
The game combines classic metroidvania exploration and progression with action-RPG mechanics, offering a rich character development system. Players can freely combine abilities from six different classes, allowing for diverse and personalized character builds. This flexibility encourages experimentation, letting players tailor their combat and exploration styles to their preferences.
Initial Reception and Post-Launch Improvements
Since its launch, Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree has received over two thousand reviews on Steam, currently holding a 'Mixed' rating with 69% positive feedback. Early player complaints often highlighted issues with difficulty balancing and control scheme quirks. However, it's worth noting that recent patches have significantly improved the game's reception, with the latest reviews trending 'Mostly Positive' at 79%.
This September release on Nintendo Switch means players will have the chance to experience Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree with many of these post-launch improvements already implemented. For fans of challenging metroidvania and dark fantasy action-RPGs, the Switch version offers a new opportunity to dive into its intricate world and engage with its evolving gameplay.
