Botany Manor Receives New PlayStation Release Date

After being planned for and then delaying the release on PlayStation, Botany Manor now has a new officially confirmed date



Article Summary

  • Botany Manor PS5 release date confirmed for January after previous delays.
  • Explore a 19th-century manor as retired botanist Arabella Greene in Botany Manor.
  • Solve plant-based puzzles by discovering clues in Arabella's notes and items.
  • Enjoy a historically accurate setting and a soothing soundtrack in Botany Manor.

Indie game developer Balloon Studios and publisher Whitethorn Games have a new release date for Botany Manor on PlayStation. The game had been set for late 2024 and then got pushed back until Q1 2025 with no c confirmed date in sight. Well, that changed this week, as we now know the game will be out on January 28 for PS5. Beyond that, nothing else has really changed about this; it's still the same game that's already out for multiple platforms and now coming to a PlayStation console, just a bit later than they expected. If it gets delayed again, however, then we're really going to wonder what's going on with this one.
