Hollow Knight: Silksong Steam Update Hints at 2025 Release

Mar 25,2025 Author: Ryan

The buzz surrounding Hollow Knight: Silksong has reached a fever pitch following recent developments that suggest a re-reveal and possible release might be on the horizon. On March 24, keen-eyed fans noticed updates to the game's Steam listing, as documented on SteamDB, sparking a flurry of speculation across social media, Reddit, and Discord. These updates included an opt-in for Hollow Knight: Silksong on GeForce Now, changes to the game's assets, and a significant alteration to the legal lines on the Steam store page, now listing Hollow Knight as copyrighted by Team Cherry in 2025, rather than 2019.

These changes hint at imminent news about Hollow Knight: Silksong, potentially pointing towards a 2025 release. With Nintendo's Switch 2 Direct scheduled for April 2, fans are eagerly anticipating whether this event might shed light on the game's future, including a possible launch on the next-generation console.

It has been six years since the initial announcement of Hollow Knight: Silksong, a period marked by sporadic updates and long stretches of silence from Team Cherry. The excitement reached a peak in January, fueled by cryptic social media posts from a developer, stirring speculation about a re-reveal at the upcoming Switch 2 Direct and a potential timed exclusive release on Nintendo's new console.

When Hollow Knight: Silksong was first announced, Team Cherry confirmed its launch on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Nintendo Switch. The game has also garnered significant attention as one of the most anticipated titles for Xbox Game Pass, following Microsoft's agreement with Team Cherry to make Silksong available on the service from day one.

In June 2022, Microsoft featured Hollow Knight: Silksong in its Xbox-Bethesda Showcase, promising that all showcased games would be playable within the next 12 months. However, in May 2023, Team Cherry announced a delay, pushing the release past the first half of 2023. Matthew Griffin, Team Cherry’s marketing and publishing lead, explained, "We had planned to release in the first half of 2023, but development is still continuing. We're excited by how the game is shaping up, and it's gotten quite big, so we want to take the time to make the game as good as we can."

As the sequel to the critically acclaimed Hollow Knight from 2017, Silksong carries immense expectations and remains one of the most wishlisted games on Steam. IGN's review of Hollow Knight praised its compelling and rich world, full of discoverable stories and branching paths that offer players an extensive choice in exploration, making it a highly rewarding experience.
