Hollow launched on November 16, 2017 and received a small burst of post-launch patches in the two weeks following release — a performance optimization patch on November 17, a gameplay and gamepad support patch on November 22, and a keybinding update on November 29, 2017. These were all maintenance and quality-of-life fixes responding to early player feedback, not planned content expansions.
The last developer communication specifically about Hollow was on November 29, 2017. After that date, the publisher's news feed moved entirely to other games (Fear Effect Sedna and Prodigy Tactics), with no further updates, patches, announcements, or roadmap posts for Hollow. There are no unreleased DLC entries on the store, no season pass, and no developer statements indicating future content was ever planned. The store description presents the game as a complete, self-contained narrative experience.
With no post-launch content cycle, no outstanding commitments, and no developer communication about Hollow since November 29, 2017, the game shipped as a finished product and has been complete since its initial launch window.

About this game
“I never cared about this ship...I just…wanted to find myself. I had to. Something deep in my brain – deep in my very soul – clawed at me, struggling to make sense of everything. But the sad truth is that it never could. I never could. I still can’t remember who I am.”
Hello, prospective crew member! Welcome to Shakhter-One, the first space mining ship to gather resources from the atmosphere of the planet Jupiter! Shakhter-One provides mass quantities of supplies to a resource-starved Earth. Thanks to Shakhter-One, we no longer have to depend on coal or oil! Still not sold on making Shakhter-One your new home?
“I don’t even know if this has happened before. Me, here, telling this same, exact story. …Surely not. I would remember that… Right?”
Shakhter-One offers a fresh start among the stars! On Shakhter-One, everybody is important! Everybody is employed! All children have an equal start! We’re confident you’ll see that Shakhter-One is the perfect place to begin your family’s future!
“The only thing that I can truly be sure of is the constant, pervading feeling I have deep inside. I’m empty. I’m hollow.”
In “Hollow,” you are one of the pilots that transports precious resource cargo from the mining ship Shakhter-One down to Earth. One day you wake up in an emergency capsule drifting near the facility. You don’t remember who you are, or how you got out there… All you can remember is an autopilot docking code for capsule dock NR 6.
When you dock with Shakhter-One, it is clear that something has gone horribly wrong. The crew is missing and the entire facility is dealing with catastrophic power issues. As you start to uncover the ship’s terrifying secrets, Shakhter-One threatens to take your identity, your sanity, and – ultimately – your life.
The worst evil is the one that knows us better than we know ourselves.
The worst nightmare is the one borne in our past, emotions, fears, and pain.
