Silksong Gets a Release Date

After years of waiting, Team Cherry confirmed that Hollow Knight: Silksong would release on September 4.

The news became a major moment for indie game fans because Silksong had become one of the most anticipated games in the world.

Platforms Were Confirmed

Silksong was confirmed for Steam, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox, PlayStation, GOG, and Humble Bundle.

It was also announced as a day-one Xbox Game Pass release, giving even more players a chance to try the game at launch.

Launch Demand Was Massive

When Silksong launched, demand was so high that several digital storefronts struggled under the traffic.

This showed how much hype had built around the game after years of silence, rumours, delays, and fan speculation.

Why It Was Big News

Silksong’s release date was not just another launch announcement.

For many players, it ended one of the longest-running waits in indie gaming and finally gave the community a real date instead of more guessing.
