"The Hollow Knight" players play the boss once a day just to wait for "Silk Song"

"The Hollow Knight: The Song of Silk" is still unreleased.

1258 times - This is the number of times a "Host Knight" player defeated Bumblebee. Like other players, this player has been waiting for the release of "Silk Song" for 6 years.

The long wait for a coveted game may lead players to some strange situations.Perhaps everyone who has followed the history of "GTA6" "trailer" understands this.Or maybe the game like Metroid like gamers, who fell in love with Team Cherry’s 2017 game, a game that has become famous as one of the top indie games in recent years (and its quality makes players feel that the price of the game is simply too conscientious in terms of what it offers).

《空洞骑士》玩家每天打一次BOSS 只为等待《丝之歌》

It’s easy to forget these days, but there was a time when the release of “Silk Song” was regarded as the outstanding and unexpected pinnacle of the Australian studio’s efforts.The team initially launched a large update with new content that surprised players, which significantly extended the game's love for them.Subsequently, the official confirmed that there will be no other paid DLC that includes the player's favorite character (Bumblebee), but a complete sequel will be released.What more can players expect?

From hope to despair

The obvious answer to the question raised in the previous paragraph is: release date.It seems we don't have to wait too long to know this answer.After all, the 2019 Nintendo Direct Meeting trailer showed a large number of game live videos, and more live demo videos were released in the following years.So, it seems that it is only a matter of time before the release of "Silk Song" is...

...at least it seems.However, over 6 years have passed, and despite the occasional updates, developers have released no signs that Hollow Knight: The Song of Silk is coming soon.Or at least no release date was announced.

Players have been patient because Team Cherry has won their great trust.However, their current sentiment is evident from the fact that in mid-2024 and now, the most popular image associated with The Hollow Knight may be (or once) a modified image of a character in which the protagonist or other characters are dressed up as a clown—usually in the context of repeated “proven” reports of the upcoming release of Silk Songs.

Fighting Bumblebee for nearly three and a half years

There is an interesting trend on the internet, which is a series of videos based on a simple concept: a player performs a specific action every day until the developer announces or launches new works in the series, or introduces some highly anticipated new features to the game.For example, performing specific operations on a character in a fighting game, sometimes such a video series may last for nearly two years (599 videos…).

Of course, there is a player of The Hollow Knight who has accepted a similar challenge.The question is whether the player, called Illnar K, realizes that the cycle of his daily defeat of Bumblebee will last until 1258 days, which is more than 3 years and 5 months.For such a long time, this YouTube UP host has been defeating the character Bumblebee in "Silk Song" in the first part of the "Host Knight" series.

Even by internet meme standards, this time is quite long, and so far there is no sign that the cycle of Illnar K will end in 1258 days.Even 1300 days can’t see any sign of ending.We hope this UP master will not reach five-digit days... No matter what, the players of "The Hollow Knight" are still too lucky.
