In 2024, we are releasing Witch It to consoles as part of a long-term plan to support our game for years to come! You may have noticed a lot of changes recently in preparation of this, as we move away from Steam's systems to our own.
As a result, we are making some major changes to Witch It's item trading.
⚠️ On 24th January 2024, Witch It Steam Trading will be removed, and will be replaced with in-game trading a month or two later. ⚠️
First and foremost, your items are safe! We are working on a multi-platform trading system that will allow Witch It players to transfer items safely and securely in-game, no matter what platform you are playing Witch It on.
???? FAQ
Why can't you have both Steam trading and in-game trading?
To proceed with in-game trading, we must transfer some functionality away from Steam onto our own systems, which will mean Steam trading will not be possible.
Will I still be able to trade Witch It items with items from other games?
No, the in-game system will only include Witch It items.
Will my items be visible in my Steam Inventory?
Yes, your items will still be visible in your Steam Inventory.
We also plan to make all items visible once again, including those which were previously hidden!
What about WitchTrade?
Our team will be reaching out soon to ensure WitchTrade has our support when in-game trading is released!
Will I be compensated?
We're currently exploring into ways to compensate players who support us through our trading pause - stay tuned!
