The anticipation for Hollow Knight: Silksong continues to build as fans eagerly await any news about its release. Recent updates to the game's Steam metadata and mentions in an Xbox Wire post have sparked renewed hope among the community. Let's dive into the details of these developments.
Excitement is brewing among Hollow Knight: Silksong enthusiasts as the game's Steam metadata has undergone a minor update. According to SteamDB, the update occurred on March 24, with Silksong being opted-in for GeForce NOW. This move signifies that the game will be compatible with NVIDIA's cloud gaming platform upon its release.
Additionally, there have been changes in the game's hidden assets and legal information. Notably, the copyright listing has been updated from 2019 to 2025, hinting at potential upcoming news or events related to Silksong. Fans have been eagerly awaiting any updates, often flooding comment sections of gaming events such as the PlayStation State of Play and Xbox Developer Direct in hopes of news.
With this minor Steam update and the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 Direct on April 2, expectations are high for more Silksong announcements.
Further fueling anticipation, Silksong was mentioned in an Xbox Wire post by ID@Xbox director Guy Richards on March 18. The post highlighted the success of the ID@Xbox program, which has paid over $5 billion to indie developers. Richards discussed past successes like Balatro, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, and Phasmophobia, and teased the upcoming lineup, which includes Silksong.
He stated, "Looking ahead, our lineup is incredible with upcoming games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Descenders Next, and FBC: Firebreak to play across the whole Xbox universe… and of course Hollow Knight: Silksong too!" While the other mentioned games have release dates within this year—Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 on April 24, Descenders Next on April 9, and FBC: Firebreak in 2025—nothing specific has been confirmed for Silksong's release.
Originally announced in February 2019, Hollow Knight: Silksong was initially conceived as a DLC but evolved into a full-scale sequel due to its expansive scope and unique features. A gameplay trailer was showcased during the 2022 Xbox-Bethesda event, with Microsoft promising that all featured games would be available within the next 12 months.
However, in 2023, Team Cherry announced a delay beyond the first half of the year, assuring continued development and future updates. Earlier this year, Team Cherry's Marketing and PR Handler, Matthew Griffin, confirmed on Twitter (X) that the game is "real, progressing and will release," offering a glimmer of hope to eager fans.
As recent developments suggest, something related to Silksong might be on the horizon. The game is slated for release on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. While no official release date has been announced by Team Cherry, fans are encouraged to stay updated with our articles for the latest news on Hollow Knight: Silksong.
