Hole Is Mine Updates & Patch Notes

Welcome to the Updates Hub for Hole Is Mine. This section tracks release coverage, patch context, and practical “what changed” notes so you do not have to dig through Steam discussions alone. The full game launched on August 10, 2026 on Steam (App ID 4508020), developed by Incrementalist (Spain; also behind Astro Prospector) and published with SpaceJazz. At launch the store page sat around Very Positive, with a list price near $7.99 and a 10% launch-week discount that may already have expired by the time you read this—treat pricing as launch-week context, not a permanent claim.

What this hub is for

Use this page as the front door for time-sensitive reading:

• Launch Notes — Prologue versus full game, Depths expansion, and day-one expectations
• Prologue Changelog — Infinite Hole, equipment UI, Holy Blook, and Deep Hole archive notes
• Cross-links into Guides Hub when a patch changes how you should progress
• Pointers to overview pages such as the Wiki Hub when you need controls, specs, or a buy/don’t-buy framing

If you only played the free Prologue (App ID 4511490), start with launch notes before grinding Infinite Hole again. The Prologue already gained Infinite Hole as a farming mode; the paid release expands the campaign around roughly ~40 Depths, 300+ upgrades, and 500+ equipment combinations. That jump is the main reason this hub exists separately from long-form guides.

Suggested reading order after a new build

1. Skim Launch Notes for feature deltas and “what to unlock first.”
2. Refresh fundamentals in Getting Started if you are returning after a break.
3. Revisit Incursion timing in How to Incursion when bag throws or depth pacing feel different.
4. Check How to Upgrade before dumping currency into every Mini’Oh at once.
5. Use Depths Walkthrough when a new depth layer feels unfair rather than under-upgraded.
6. Keep Infinite Hole bookmarked for post-campaign farming loops.

Launch-week reality check

Hole Is Mine is single-player only—there is no multiplayer, no shared lobbies, and it is not a Roblox experience. Full controller support and Steam Deck Verified status matter if you play docked or handheld. The stack targets Windows 10+, Vulkan, about 4GB RAM, and roughly 1GB of storage; full tables live on System Requirements. If a patch notes page ever mentions performance, pair it with those tips instead of guessing from Discord hearsay.

How we write update pages

Each child page under /updates/ should answer three questions: what shipped, what it changes for progression, and which guide to open next. We prefer concrete depth, upgrade, and Incursion language over vague “QoL improvements.” When Steam posts a hotfix, expect a short page here that links back into Village and Secrets or equipment guidance rather than duplicating entire build guides.

Community reactions at launch leaned positive on the core collect → upgrade → Incursion loop and the cute presentation. That does not mean every depth is trivial—Very Positive reviews still leave room for difficulty spikes, tentacle encounters, and upgrade bottlenecks. Use this hub to stay oriented when those spikes get patched or when new Infinite Hole rewards appear.
