Independent game studio Team Cherry recently updated the official website of "The Hollow Knight: Song of Silk", clearly marking all platforms that the game will log in.With the work that has been delayed for many years confirmed to be released in 2025, this update has once again ignited the expectations of the player group - this work, which was originally released in February 2019, has made players wait for more than six years.
In the sequel, players will control the popular character "Hornet" of the first generation of "Host Knight" to explore a brand new insect kingdom.Although the worldview is different from the previous work, judging from the demonstrations disclosed by Team Cherry, the iconic high-difficulty boss battle will continue.Although the specific release date has not been announced, the official has repeatedly emphasized that the game will meet players in 2025.
Careful player Primacon pointed out on social media that the updated official website "Support Platform" area has added the PS4 and Switch2 logos, which means that this game will become one of the first works to log on to Nintendo's next-generation consoles.Although it seems to be just a minor adjustment, combined with the recent updates to the Steam page of "Silk Song" hinted that the development team is making final preparations for the release.
Previously, some players speculated that the game might be released on the Summer Game Fest suddenly and even directly on the release date. Although this speculation failed to come true, the well-known whistleblower Nate the Hate still insisted that "Silk Song" will be launched before the end of the summer of 2025.
Regarding the question of "whether the game is bound to be released with ROG Ally's handheld console" triggered at the Xbox launch conference, Team Cherry marketing manager Matthew "Leth" Griffin specifically clarified: "I confirm it is before the holiday season (released)" and further explained that the so-called "holiday season" refers to the Christmas schedule.
It is worth noting that since the Nintendo Switch 2 faced the game in April 2025, it has reiterated that this game will be released within the year, and the number of game-related updates has increased significantly.For fans of "The Hollow Knight" who have been with him for many years, this long wait may finally come to an end - of course, players still need to maintain rational expectations before the developer officially announced it.
