The publisher announced a digital launch discount. Store promotions have their own end dates; use the live product page when deciding whether to purchase during a sale.
Why are regional prices different?
The publisher confirms regional pricing and says it considers currency conversion, comparable games, platform guidance and local economic conditions. That means a regional price is a locally set offer. Read the product listing in the store region you use, keep the currency visible when comparing prices, and include any checkout charges in your decision.

| Detail to compare | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Currency and store region | Identifies the local price being quoted |
| Regular or promotional price | Shows whether a temporary offer is being compared |
| Platform and edition | Makes clear which product the payment buys |
| Final checkout total | Includes the charges applicable to that transaction |
What is the difference between digital and physical editions?
Digital purchases provide a download through the selected platform’s store, while boxed editions are separately sold retail products. The publisher announced boxes for Switch, Switch 2 and PS5, with the Switch 2 version using a game-key card. Compare the physical format, retailer’s price and delivery terms alongside the digital offer when choosing your copy.
| Purchase format | Confirmed product information | Where to compare the offer |
|---|---|---|
| Digital | Sold through the selected platform’s digital store | Regional store product page |
| Boxed Switch | Physical edition announced by the publisher | Silver Lining Direct or your retailer |
| Boxed Switch 2 | Game-key card; an initial download is required | Publisher and retailer product descriptions |
| Boxed PS5 | Physical edition announced by the publisher | Silver Lining Direct or your retailer |

Why does a boxed release have a different price?
Silver Lining explains that a physical release adds manufacturing, printing, packaging, logistics and retailer distribution costs. Those costs are why the publisher prices its physical edition above the digital version. Compare the exact retailer offer and any delivery charge before deciding which format suits you.
When did the digital and boxed versions release?
The publisher set separate digital and physical release dates, with boxed copies following the digital launch. Keep those dates separate when reading an older announcement or a retailer listing. For a physical order, also check the retailer’s dispatch or delivery estimate, since the release date alone does not tell you when a parcel will arrive.
| Edition | Publisher’s release date |
|---|---|
| Digital | October 14, 2026 |
| Physical | October 16, 2026 |

What should you compare before choosing a copy?
Compare the platform you own, the available language list, the purchase format and the final price. Then consider whether the story-led gameplay appeals to you: the publisher describes a single-player adventure built around Lunne, her bakery and her relationships in Paris. Use gameplay information alongside the price when deciding which offer suits your plans.
The publisher FAQ confirms the single-player focus. Our character directory introduces the cast, and the beginner guide explains bakery service, exploration and the daily routine.
