It’s the game that just does not want to launch. Announced back in February of 2023, Mina the Hollower from Yacht Club games has been slowly taking its time going from Kickstarter to store shelves. After a period of silence, fans were eventually told in August that the game was going to finally be launching on 10.31.25… but alas, ’twas not to be. Yacht Club made the announcement today:
This week, our team made a tough decision: we decided to delay Mina the Hollower. The entire crew has been working tirelessly day and night to finish development for release on Oct 31st, but we’re just not quite there yet.

This week, our team made a tough decision: we decided to delay Mina the Hollower. The entire crew has been working tirelessly day and night to finish development for release on Oct 31st, but we’re just not quite there yet. This isn’t a major delay, it’s just a stretch of time to apply some final polish and balancing to make the game truly shine.
With that said, we would like to apologize! Nevertheless, we will not waver on our commitment to quality. Our goal is to make sure our development team has the time and resources to deliver an incredible adventure and we will be giving you just that. That’s no hollow promise!
We don’t want to announce another release date until it’s submitted to platforms, so please hang tight as we reach the finish line.
The game is so close to being done- we’re playing it from start to finish every day. In the final hours, this is what the crew is working on:
- Finalizing design, art, and sound
- Overall game balancing
- Implementing localization
- Eating cheese
- Testing, testing, testing… on all platforms!
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
Sincerely,
The Yacht Club Games crew
While the delay doesn’t sound like it’s going to be a long one, it’s nonetheless disappointing for fans who have been waiting years to finally play Mina the Hollower. That said, it’s likely that everyone would much rather wait a little longer if it means getting the best possible version of the game at launch. What say you?
