Silksong at Gamescom 2025

The anticipation for Hollow Knight: Silksong has been augmented by its confirmed presence at Gamescom 2025. Creative discussions surrounding its marketing strategies, particularly with Xbox and the highly anticipated ROG Xbox Ally, have led to speculation that the release date for Silksong might coincide with the unveiling of this new Xbox handheld. In a converging timeline, the ROG Xbox Ally is likely to make news during the Gamescom Opening Night Live (ONL) event.

Release Date Speculations

While there’s hope that both announcements could be tied together, industry insider Jason Schreier from Bloomberg suggests otherwise, indicating that the release date for Silksong will be specifically addressed during Thursday’s presentation.
