Yacht Club Games has dated Mina the Hollower for May 29, giving the Shovel Knight studio's long-in-development action-adventure a new target after its earlier delay.
The game is planned for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, Mac, Linux, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Yacht Club Games lists May 29, 2026 in its official press materials, while the Steam page currently shows May 28, likely reflecting regional store timing. The announced US price is $19.99.
Mina the Hollower is a new project from Yacht Club rather than another Shovel Knight game. Players control Mina, a Hollower sent to rescue a cursed island, with combat and exploration centered on whipping enemies, burrowing under hazards and upgrading sidearms and trinkets.
The studio is leaning into a Game Boy Color-style look, but the official feature list also calls out widescreen visuals, detailed animation and modern controls. That makes the release more than a retro throwback for Yacht Club fans, since it is the team's first major new original game after building its name on Shovel Knight.
Steam's listing describes the game as a single-player action-adventure with a dark world, boss fights, secrets and music by Jake Kaufman. Yacht Club also pitches the story as Victorian Gothic horror, which gives Mina the Hollower a moodier identity than Shovel Knight's bright fantasy comedy.
The May date matters most because Mina the Hollower had already slipped from its previous window. Barring another change, Yacht Club now has less than a month before its mouse-led adventure arrives across current consoles and PC storefronts.
