Team Cherry's Marketing and PR Manager, Matthew Griffin, confirms that Hollow Knight: Silksong is still under active development and will eventually be released. This follows recent speculation sparked by a cake-related profile picture change by a co-creator. While that turned out to be a misunderstanding, Griffin's confirmation provides much-needed reassurance to eager fans.
Official Confirmation
Griffin, via X (formerly Twitter), directly addressed fan concerns, stating unequivocally that the game "is real, progressing and will release." This is the first significant update on the game's status in over a year and a half. The initial wave of excitement surrounding a potential ARG or Nintendo Switch 2 announcement proved unfounded, but Griffin's statement has quelled many anxieties.
A Long-Awaited Sequel
Initially unveiled in February 2019 with a projected release in the first half of 2023, Silksong faced a delay in May 2023. Team Cherry cited the game's increased scope and their commitment to quality as reasons for the postponement. The game promises a new kingdom, nearly 150 new enemies, and a challenging new difficulty mode, "Silk Soul" mode.
The recent confirmation, while welcomed, has elicited mixed reactions. While some fans express relief and offer words of encouragement to the developers, others remain impatient after nearly six years of anticipation, feeling the update was insufficient.
Hornet's Journey Continues
Hollow Knight: Silksong will follow Hornet, the princess-protector from the original game, on a perilous journey to the summit of a new kingdom. The game is slated for release on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. While a precise release date remains elusive, fans can anticipate further news and announcements in the future.
