Mina the Hollower: A Haunting Indie Journey into Victorian Gothic Shadows

This exciting update announces that the highly anticipated indie title, Mina the Hollower, is scheduled for release this month. Long admired by fans of independent games, this new project from Yacht Club Games follows the success of their previous hit, Shovel Knight. After launching Shovel Knight Dig in 2022, the studio has turned its focus to delivering this dark and atmospheric adventure.

They describe the experience as a descent into psychotic depths, where a chilling yet warm tale inspired by Victorian Gothic horror unfolds. Players are invited to explore a vast, shadowy world filled with secrets, formidable challenges, and intricately connected levels.

Having faced several delays, the studio now confirms that the project is complete, with its launch timed perfectly for the summer break. The premiere is scheduled for May 29, ensuring plenty of time during vacation to fully immerse oneself in the game.

The title will be available on a variety of platforms, including:

• PC
• PlayStation 5
• Switch
• Switch 2 (available as a complimentary upgrade from your Switch 1))
• Xbox Series S/X

All versions will be offered at a price of $19.99. An engaging mini-trailer has has also been made public, offering a sneak peek into the game’s rich world and atmospheric design.
