Botany Manor's PlayStation Release Finally Set for January 28th
Initially slated for a December 17th, 2024 release on PlayStation 4 and 5, the critically acclaimed puzzler Botany Manor has been delayed, but now has a confirmed launch date: January 28th, 2025. The delay, announced by publisher Whitethorn Games, aimed to ensure a polished and optimal player experience.
Originally launched in April 2024 for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, Botany Manor quickly garnered praise, earning a "Strong" rating on OpenCritic with an impressive 83/100 average score and 92% positive reviews. Its charming atmosphere, engaging puzzles, and rewarding exploration captivated critics, solidifying its reputation as a top-tier puzzler of 2024.
The PlayStation port, developed by Balloon Studios, will likely be priced at $24.99, consistent with other platforms. Expect a one-time purchase with no microtransactions, and while a separate digital soundtrack is available on Steam, it's unlikely to be included on the PlayStation Store.
Botany Manor is poised to enrich the PlayStation's already impressive puzzle game library. Its arrival on January 28th, alongside other notable titles like Cuisineer, Eternal Strands, and The Sone of Madness, promises a diverse range of gaming experiences for PlayStation players. While a PS Store page is yet to appear, PS4 and PS5 owners can eagerly anticipate its imminent release. The future projects of Balloon Studios remain unannounced, leaving fans curious about what's next for the talented development team.
