Shovel Knight developer's Zelda-like game Mina the Hollower delayed
Echoes of whiskers.
Mina the Hollower, the next game from Shovel Knight developer Yacht Club Games, has been delayed but is "so close to being done".
The Zelda-like adventure was intended for release on 31st October, but has been pushed back without a new release date, though the developer has stated it "isn't a major delay" but just "a stretch of time to apply some final polish and balancing to make the game truly shine".
"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!" the studio stated.
"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."
Yacht Club Games made its name with celebrated platformer Shovel Knight, which spawned a number of spin-offs.
Mina the Hollower is a change of pace, featuring a top-down adventure style reminiscent of Game Boy Zelda game Link's Awakening in a gothic, Castlevania-esque world.
It continues the studio's penchant for retro aesthetics, then. Victoria checked out the demo on Switch 2 a couple of months back and loved it.
