The Witch’s Bakery is whisking its way to more platforms in 2026. Publisher Silver Lining Interactive and developer Sunny Lab have confirmed the cozy side-scrolling adventure RPG is coming to Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, joining its previously announced Windows PC release on Steam. A fresh trailer highlights its heartwarming blend of baking, magic, and Parisian charm.
Set in modern-day Paris, The Witch’s Bakery puts you in the shoes of Lunne, a cheerful witch with a unique gift: she can see into people’s hearts and soothe their emotions through enchanted baking. It’s a wholesome premise with a thoughtful twist, turning every pastry into a chance to help someone heal.
Your days unfold in a gentle, three-part rhythm that mixes management, exploration, and character growth:
– Daytime: Run your bakery with a team of friends, serve a steady stream of customers, and build your reputation. Expect to juggle ingredients, recipes, and timing as you grow your business and earn money, experience, and fame.
– Evening: Step out into Paris to form bonds, uncover secrets, and take on activities that teach new skills. This is also when Lunne ventures into the emotional worlds of friends in need, deepening their stories and revealing what truly weighs on their hearts.
– Night: Recharge and refine your craft. Improve your magic, tidy and decorate your shop, and savor quiet moments in a cozy atelier that evolves alongside your journey.
Paris itself plays a starring role, reimagined as a vibrant playground for discovery. Each district offers its own cast of characters, shops, and activities. One highlighted stop is Le Quai des Bouquinistes in the 6th arrondissement, famous for its riverside bookstalls, vintage collectibles like vinyl records and posters, and the postcard-perfect view of Notre-Dame. Exploring different neighborhoods leads to new recipes, useful items, and story threads that make the city feel alive.
At the heart of the narrative is an intimate look at emotions and vulnerability. Some feelings are so locked away that Lunne must enter a person’s “Heart Palace,” a surreal inner realm where thoughts and emotions take shape. These sequences blend platforming and puzzle-like guidance as you help a personified Emotion find its way home. Along the way, Lunne uncovers the source of someone’s pain and discovers the special ingredient needed to bake a curative bread—tying the emotional journey back to the comforting ritual of the bakery.
Key elements that define The Witch’s Bakery:
– Cozy adventure RPG with side-scrolling exploration and story-rich progression
– A day-night loop that balances bakery management, relationship-building, and personal growth
– Parisian districts to visit, each with unique activities, shops, and characters
– Emotional “Heart Palace” dives that turn inner struggles into interactive, magical spaces
– Recipe discovery, skill learning, and shop customization to personalize your path
Everything from the warm color palette to the gentle cadence of daily life is crafted to create a relaxing experience that still feels meaningful. By earning experience and fame, making new friends, and helping others confront their struggles, you’ll watch Lunne’s world expand—inside the kitchen and far beyond it.
The Witch’s Bakery is slated to launch in 2026 for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam. The new trailer teases Parisian locales, heartfelt character moments, and the satisfying loop of baking with a purpose—hinting at a feel-good adventure where every loaf tells a story.
