The enchanting and heartwarming adventure game, Mika and the Witch's Mountain, is set to launch on January 22nd, 2025, across multiple platforms: Nintendo Switch, Steam (PC), PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. Following a successful early access period beginning August 21st, 2024, players can finally experience the complete game, enriched with exciting new features and post-launch content.
Drawing inspiration from Studio Ghibli's Kiki's Delivery Service, players embody Mika, a young witch working as a parcel courier in a charming town nestled at the foot of a mystical mountain. The early access version quickly captivated fans of cozy adventure games, and now console players can embark on Mika's magical journey.
As announced by developers Chibig and Nukefist (via Gematsu), the console launch on January 22nd marks the end of early access.

Furthermore, a post-launch patch, "Into the Mont Gaun," promises dungeon gameplay reminiscent of The Legend of Zelda series, bringing the game to its envisioned completion, as initially planned during its 2023 Kickstarter campaign.
