Mina the Hollower releases on May 29, 2026. This page explains the date, why Steam can show May 28, which platforms are listed, what the Kickstarter means now, and what to watch before buying a physical copy.
Where to play
The short version: Switch and Switch 2 are listed by Nintendo, Steam covers Windows, macOS and Linux, and the final launch coverage includes PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Older PS4 and Xbox One mentions are not the current buyer path.
Nintendo lists Mina the Hollower for Switch with a Switch 2 option and an upgrade pack. The page also lists May 29, 2026 as the release date.
Steam lists Windows, macOS and Linux support. SteamDB lists the Steam release timestamp as May 29, 2026 at 04:00 UTC, which explains the May 28 store display some users see.
PlayStation Blog confirmed a PS5 version during the Spring 2026 update and mentioned a limited-time PS5 demo whose progress carries into the full game.
Xbox has a store listing for Mina the Hollower, and launch reporting from the developer announcement lists Xbox Series alongside PS5, Switch, Switch 2 and PC.
Why dates disagree
The most useful reading is this: May 29 is the official release date, while Steam's visible date can shift by local time. SteamDB currently shows a UTC timestamp of May 29, 2026 at 04:00. In some regions, that moment still falls on May 28.
This does not mean there are two separate launches. It means a global unlock can land on a different calendar day depending on where you live and how each store formats the date.
What changed
Search suggestions still show older questions because Mina the Hollower had a long public runway. The useful update is separating old placeholders from current store pages.
The project built its early community through Kickstarter. Backer rewards and physical-copy questions still come from that campaign, but new buyers should use current store listings.
Yacht Club Games announced the Spring 2026 window with Switch 2, Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X and Steam listed, plus a final limited-time PS5 demo.
The press kit now lists May 29, 2026. Steam, Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox and GOG pages help confirm what each store shows in your region.
Buyer notes
If you want portability and Nintendo saves, start with the Nintendo page. If you want Steam Deck or Linux support, Steam is the cleanest page to watch. If you care about ownership without Steam, keep an eye on GOG. For PS5 and Xbox, use the console store page because regional release buttons can appear at different times.
For a physical release, treat day one as digital unless a store listing says otherwise. Kickstarter backers with physical rewards should follow Kickstarter and fulfillment updates first, then public retail news.
Fast answers
Short answers for the queries that show up around release week.
Mina the Hollower is a single-player action-adventure game by Yacht Club Games. It uses Game Boy Color-inspired pixel art with modern widescreen presentation, burrowing movement, whip combat, sidearms, trinkets and a Victorian Gothic island setting.
The official press kit lists May 29, 2026. If Steam shows May 28 where you live, that is most likely a local-time display around a global unlock, not a separate earlier release.
Yes. Nintendo lists Switch, Switch 2 and an upgrade pack option. The US Nintendo page lists May 29, 2026 and separate estimated file sizes for Switch and Switch 2.
Yes. Yacht Club Games announced the PS5 version in its Spring 2026 update, and the PlayStation Blog covered the game with a limited-time PS5 demo note.
Yes, Xbox Series X|S has a store listing. Older Xbox One wording appears in old articles, but the current launch trail points buyers to Series X|S.
The Kickstarter campaign funded the early public version of the project and created backer rewards. It is not the best page for normal launch-day buying now. Use it for backer context and reward updates.
Wiki-style pages are starting to appear around launch. Before full walkthroughs settle, the safest wiki material is source-backed basics: release date, platforms, mechanics, demo history and official terminology.
Launch reporting from the developer announcement lists the price at $19.99 USD. Store prices can vary by region, currency and platform, so check your store page before buying.
