Hollow Knight: Silksong News

The collective desperation for Hollow Knight: Silksong has evolved. Rather than people getting all up a height about the prospect of getting any news about it, they've now been left up a height due to confusion around some news they have gotten about the game. Cue Team Cherry having to step in to offer a bit of clarification about Silksong's Xbox Showcase cameo yesterday.

In case you were washing your hair, Silksong popped up during the bit that saw Microsoft introduce its handheld, the ROG Xbox Ally. There was the usual hardware spinning around and looking cool, plus Xbox's Sarah Bond saying when Silksong popped up on the handheld's screen that the game'll be "available at launch and in Game Pass when the Ally releases later this year".

Now that the biggest videogame showcases of the summer have come and gone, I'm sad to say we didn't get a Hollow Knight Silksong shadow drop or launch date announcement. I'd been holding out hope, but I now understand that was a pipe dream. Team Cherry's internet-breaking Metroidvania did come up a few times, though, getting name-dropped by Deadpool during the Summer Game Fest showcase, with five seconds of new footage also debuting at the Xbox event. In fact, the latter seems to have caused a bit of confusion as to when Silksong is actually out, but Team Cherry has cleared things up.

It's at the top of the Steam wishlist chart. It's been in the works for years. Everyone wants to know when it's coming. But so far, all we know for certain is that Hollow Knight Silksong will arrive at some point in 2025. The sequel to Team Cherry's beloved 2017 Metroidvania and 2D soulslike, when it comes to anticipation, Silksong is up there with GTA 6 and the almost mythical Half-Life 3. However, it's possible - maybe, potentially - that after all this time, the game is shadow dropped. We don't get a launch date. Team Cherry just says 'yep, it's out now.' That could be sheer optimism, but a new Hollow Knight Silksong Steam update, alongside some other details, suggests it could be in the stars.

We might not have an exact launch date yet, but we now have confirmation that Hollow Knight Silksong will be playable in September 2025. There's just one fairly big catch; you might have to go to Australia to try it. The long-awaited Team Cherry action platformer is set to make an appearance in the developer's home country later this year, making the possibility that we'll finally see the full release in 2025 feel more real than ever.
