Witch It: Overflow Mode

Witch It · published 1 Nov 2024, 18:42 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam


In the past 24 hours, we've had over 80,000+ unique players open Witch It across all platforms, and hit our highest-ever concurrent playercount at over 17,000+! 🎉

To keep up with the huge influx of new players, Witch It is currently in "Overflow Mode".
Overflow Mode aims to let as many players into the game as possible by limiting some functionality of the game. 🔒

Overflow Mode Includes:


✔️ Quick Match
✔️ Server List
✔️ Friends System
✔️ Custom Matches
✔️ Creative Mode

Overflow Mode Does Not Include:


❌ Progression
❌ Skins
❌ Inventory
❌ Quests
❌ Crafting
❌ Trading
❌ Achievements

We feel Overflow Mode is necessary to ensure as many players as possible can play Witch It over the weekend and limit further server crashes. We aim to keep Witch It in Overflow Mode at least until the end of the weekend, but may extend it further if it remains stable.

Your progression and items you have earned previously to Overflow Mode are safe, and will be accessible again once we exit Overflow Mode. Levels earned in Overflow Mode will not be saved.

⚠️ DLC Packs will not work in Overflow Mode. If you have bought DLC, it is safe and you will be able to access it again once we leave Overflow Mode.

While this is not the most ideal solution, we would like to assure you our team is working tirelessly on maintaining the servers. We've never experienced such large numbers before, and so it's been a huge challenge for us to keep everything stable! 🤯

We plan to extend our ongoing events (Dreamland and Halloween), and we will compensate all players with crafting ingredients in the next few weeks.

We'd like to extend a special thanks to our community regulars in helping new players and supporting our team with additional support in and out of the game. You are amazing! 💜

You can send a friend request to another player while they are offline, but they will only receive it once both…
