If you searched for Mina the Hollower release date because you remember the game being delayed, the timeline is easy to confuse. The game was originally scheduled for October 31, 2025, was delayed during October 2025, received a Spring 2026 launch window in February, and finally received its exact May 29, 2026 release date in May.
Mina the Hollower Release Date: May 29, 2026
The official release date for Mina the Hollower is May 29, 2026. Yacht Club Games lists May 29, 2026 on the game's official page, and Nintendo also lists May 29, 2026 for the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 editions.

Released. Mina the Hollower is no longer an upcoming game.
What platforms is Mina the Hollower on?
The launch covers the major current platforms:
- PC / Steam
- Nintendo Switch
- Nintendo Switch 2
- PlayStation 5
- Xbox Series X|S
Yacht Club Games announced the Spring 2026 launch across Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Steam. Nintendo's store pages separately confirm the May 29, 2026 release date for both Switch and Switch 2.
Why does Steam show May 28, 2026?
This is the main reason people can find two different dates when searching for the game. Steam's current store page displays May 28, 2026, while Yacht Club Games' official game page and Nintendo list May 29, 2026.
If you see May 28 on Steam, do not treat it as a second official release date or as evidence that the game was released a day early. It is a storefront/date-display difference. For console availability, the official Nintendo listing uses May 29, 2026, and Yacht Club Games' official game page also uses May 29, 2026.
Was Mina the Hollower delayed?
Yes. The game was originally scheduled for October 31, 2025. In October 2025, Yacht Club Games announced that the team needed additional time for final polish and balancing and delayed the release.
The important point is that the October 2025 date was not the final release date. In February 2026, Yacht Club Games announced that the game would launch in Spring 2026. At that point, the exact day had not yet been locked in because the remaining console submissions were still being completed.

May 29, 2026
Final official release date. Mina the Hollower launched on PC, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
What happened to the Mina the Hollower demo?
Before launch, Yacht Club Games offered a limited-time demo on PlayStation 5. The February 2026 announcement said the demo covered the opening portion of the game through the first major boss, with progress carrying into the full release.
That demo was part of the pre-release campaign. It should not be confused with the full game, which is now available.
