Shovel Knight developer Yacht Club Games has finally revealed a new release date for its long-awaited retro-inspired action game, Mina the Hollower . Thankfully, it’s only a few weeks away, as the game arrives on May 29th.

First announced in February 2022 , Mina the Hollower draws inspiration from top-down Zelda, Castlevania, and sports an 8-bit presentation evoking Game Boy Color titles. It stars Mina, a famous scientist or “Hollower” who travels to a cursed island to help restore its lost power. Playing off her title, Mina can burrow underground, which is used in combat, puzzle-solving, and exploring the overworld and dungeons. Mina also wields a whip to attack enemies and can also use a variety of sidearms. Check out the most recent trailer from last year below to see the game in action (just disregard the out-of-date October release date).

Mina the Hollower was originally crowdfunded on Kickstarter, and backers were the first to learn of the game’s new release date.…
