Mina the Hollower is a top-down action-adventure RPG developed by Yacht Club Games, releasing in 2026 for PC, Mac, Linux, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Players control Mina, a skilled Hollower tasked with saving a cursed island, navigating an interconnected dark world through a combination of whip attacks, dodging, and burrowing beneath enemies and environmental hazards. Combat draws on a primary whip weapon called Nightstar alongside a range of collectible sidearms, each with distinct move sets, while equippable trinkets and a leveling system allow players to tailor Mina's capabilities to their preferred approach. The game's visuals adopt an 8-bit style inspired by Game Boy Color hardware, updated with detailed animation, widescreen presentation, and smooth 60fps gameplay. The setting draws from Victorian Gothic horror, featuring eccentric characters, secret-laden locales, and challenging boss encounters. The soundtrack is composed by chiptune musician Jake Kaufman.
