Hela: of Mice & Magic has finally received a tentative release date and a new trailer.

Hela: of Mice & Magic, one of the most anticipated cozy adventures in recent years, has finally received a tentative release date. Publisher Knights Peak and development studio Windup Games have confirmed that the game will arrive during the fourth quarter of 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC.

Along with the release date announcement, the creators also presented a new trailer and revealed that Hela has already surpassed an impressive one million additions to the wishlist, which speaks volumes about players' interest in this unusual adventure.

Hela: of Mice & Magic is inspired by Scandinavian folklore and places players in the role of a brave mouse exploring beautiful natural landscapes filled with magic, puzzles, and unusual inhabitants. During the journey, we will visit dense forests, tranquil lakes, and rugged mountain areas in an ever-changing open world. A special emphasis is placed on cooperative gameplay. Hela can be played solo, but also with friends through local split-screen mode or online cooperation.

One of the main mechanics of the game will be a magical backpack that we will use to interact with the environment, gather resources, and solve numerous puzzles. The development studio promises an advanced object physics system and a dynamic world that will react to our actions. Unlike many adventures that rely on combat, Hela places a special emphasis on kindness and helping others. Our actions should have a visible impact on the game world, as well as on the characters we will meet during our journey.

From its first presentation, Hela attracted attention thanks to its beautiful visual identity and atmosphere reminiscent of a blend of Scandinavian fairy tales and modern cozy adventures. The new trailer only confirms that we can expect one of the most charming indie games on the market by the end of next year. If Windup Games manages to fulfill its promises of an open world, interesting puzzles, and a quality cooperative experience, Hela: of Mice & Magic could become a delightful surprise in 2026.
