Wanderstop physical editions for Switch 2 and PS5 land August 28, with pre-orders live now
iam8bit, Ivy Road, and Annapurna Interactive announced physical editions of Wanderstop for Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5, shipping August 28. Pre-orders are already open through iam8bit's online store and participating retailers. The Switch 2 physical edition runs $49.99 with the full game on the cartridge. The PS5 version costs $39.99.
iam8bit is offering an Exclusive Edition for both platforms at the same price, adding an outer sleeve and unique sticker packs featuring in-game fungi. Each copy also includes a double-sided 12"x18" foldout poster of protagonist Alta, Boro, and the flask of chaotic puffins.
Wanderstop first launched on PS5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam on March 11, 2025. The digital version arrives on Switch 2 and original Switch through the eShop on June 25, roughly two months before the physical release. The critically acclaimed tea shop management game comes from Ivy Road, the studio led by Davey Wreden of The Stanley Parable and The Beginner's Guide fame. Players step into the role of Alta, a fallen fighter who wants nothing more than to leave the tea shop she's stuck managing in a magical forest. The game explores themes of burnout and learning to let go, framed through brewing tea for travelers and tending a clearing.
Alongside the physical game, iam8bit is pressing two vinyl releases: Wanderstop 2xLP on sunny yellow palm and Wanderstop FM 2xLP in seed pink, both priced at $42.99 and shipping August 28. Album art comes from Nat F. The physical editions arrive just over a year after Wanderstop's initial debut, giving Switch 2 owners a boxed option for one of the most acclaimed cozy games in recent years.
