Anticipation Builds for Hollow Knight: Silksong’s Release
After a series of delays, fans of the beloved franchise can finally mark their calendars. During The Game Awards 2024, it was announced that Hollow Knight: Silksong will officially launch in April 2025, coinciding with the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 Direct. Players will soon embark on Hornet’s thrilling journey, which promises to deliver an extraordinary gaming experience.
From DLC to Standalone Title
Initially conceived as an expansion for the original Hollow Knight, the vision for Silksong expanded significantly, leading developers Team Cherry to elevate it into a fully-fledged title. This transformation was officially communicated back in February 2019, and since then, snippets of information have dripped out. Gamers have caught glimpses of the game’s intriguing map system and had introductions to various NPCs.
Recent Developments and Teasers
Although the game was initially set for release in 2022 and promised to debut on Xbox Game Pass, a delay in 2023 saw a noticeable decline in updates. Despite the release of collectibles such as Nendoroid figures for both the Knight and Hornet, along with a fresh art reveal on Steam and an Xbox product listing, tangible details about Hollow Knight: Silksong remained sparse until now.
Platforms and Availability
Scheduled for release in 2025, Hollow Knight: Silksong will be accessible on multiple platforms, including PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. For those who have yet to explore the original Hollow Knight, it is currently available across PS4, Switch, Xbox One, and PC worldwide.
