Yacht Club Games, the studio behind Shovel Knight, has announced a "final" release date for Mina the Hollower following a brief delay.

The game is a pixel-art, top-down action-adventure that draws clear inspiration from classic Zelda titles. Yacht Club's announcement confirms the title will launch on Nintendo Switch and PC, with the studio describing the date as "final" after taking extra time to polish the build.

Developer updates leading up to the reveal emphasised a focus on tight combat, exploration and a retro visual style, positioning Mina the Hollower as an indie take on familiar action-adventure mechanics. The studio has used its Shovel Knight pedigree to temper expectations for a handcrafted, nostalgia-leaning experience.

The release announcement was accompanied by the usual launch-week details, with Yacht Club outlining platform confirmation and launch plans. Further specifics on editions, pre-orders and post-launch support were flagged as part of the developer's communications.

Mina the Hollower's confirmed date will allow fans and retailers to prepare for launch after the game's temporary delay, and cements Yacht Club's latest effort as one of the year's more prominent indie retro releases.
