Hollow Knight: Silksong, the highly anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed Hollow Knight, is finally set to release on September 4th. The news was revealed in a “special announcement” video that debuted on Thursday.
Silksong has been in development for years, but according to Team Cherry co-founders Ari Gibson and William Pellen, the game was never stuck during its development process. Despite the lengthy time frame, Gibson stated that the team’s progress was constant. The game will be released across multiple platforms, including Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
In Silksong, players will take on the role of Hornet, a character introduced in the original Hollow Knight. The new kingdom promises to deliver new areas to explore, enemies to fight, and bosses to defeat. As one of the most wishlisted games on Steam, fans have been eagerly awaiting Silksong’s release for years.
In an unexpected twist, Team Cherry has announced plans to add more content to the game post-launch, further extending its replay value. With the release date now confirmed, gamers can look forward to immersing themselves in this next chapter of the Hollow Knight series.
