Yacht Club Games Announces Final May 29 Release Date for Mina the Hollower
Yacht Club Games, the developer behind the acclaimed Shovel Knight series, has officially confirmed the final release date for its upcoming title, Mina the Hollower. Following a brief delay, the game is scheduled to launch on May 29, 2026. It will be available across multiple platforms, including Nintendo Switch, the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2, PC, Mac, Linux, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, with a retail price of $19.99. This marks a significant departure for the studio, as Mina the Hollower is their first project unrelated to the Shovel Knight franchise. The game features a pixelated, top-down adventure style reminiscent of classic Zelda titles, infused with Gothic charm. Players control Mina, a feisty mouse tasked with saving a cursed island. The release is considered a critical moment for Yacht Club Games, with founder Sean Velasco previously describing it as a make-or-break scenario for the company's future financial stability. Despite earlier delays, anticipation remains high following positive impressions from early demos, particularly regarding its retro-inspired soundtrack and engaging gameplay mechanics.
