French indie studio Sunny Lab released The Witch's Bakery on October 14, 2026, with UK publisher Silver Lining Interactive handling the launch. The heartwarming adventure RPG is available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2, priced at 2,400 yen including tax. Players control Renee, a witch who runs a bakery in modern-day Paris. Her power lets her enter the Heart Palace, a mental space where emotions take physical form, so she can heal troubled residents and gather bread ingredients. The day loop has three phases. Daytime is bakery work with Ori, her shape-shifting cat-like companion. Evening is spent exploring Paris and building relationships. Night is for the atelier, where Renee develops recipes, improves her baking, and decorates the shop. Cecile Corbel, known for the Studio Ghibli film The Secret World of Arrietty, contributed music. A physical edition is planned for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, with no date set, sold through Silver Lining Direct and retailers in various regions, and it includes a digital cookbook.
The Witch's Bakery is the first title from Sunny Lab, the French studio behind it, and it reached storefronts after a Kickstarter campaign that the studio describes as highly successful. The publisher, Silver Lining Interactive, is based in the north of England and releases games in physical and digital formats.
Renee's companion Ori is described as shape-shifting and cat-like, and the pair run the bakery together during the day. In the evening, Renee moves through Paris, meeting characters and learning their worries and the city's secrets. The Heart Palace is where the game's healing mechanic plays out: emotions appear in physical form, and Renee guides them to where they belong.
The supported languages are Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Portuguese. The physical edition, planned for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, comes with a cookbook of French baked goods that players can make in a real kitchen. Its release date is undecided. A trailer was published alongside the launch.
