Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree – Ver. ???

Release date: February 25th 2026
Patch notes:

New Game+ Has Arrived

Brace yourself for the ultimate trial. With New Game+, you can now restart your journey using your battle-hardened Inquisitor and progress through as many NG+ cycles as you dare. Difficulty will continue to scale for the first 10, each one more punishing than the last.

Enemies grow tougher with every cycle, scaling their strength to match your power.
NG+ versions of weapons, off-hands, and rings can now be found to upgrade your arsenal.
Random empowered auras and effects will appear on enemies, offering both greater danger and greater rewards.

Prefer to take it easy? You can also replay the base game at NG+0 with your fully equipped Inquisitor.
