Sure thing, here goes my take on it:
—
Okay, so you know that game Hollow Knight? Like, the one that seems to always be “almost” here but isn’t yet? Yeah, they’re doing some stuff. Anyway, Team Cherry just jazzed up the Hollow Knight: Silksong website. Now, it says it’ll work on PS4 and…wait for it…Switch 2. Yup, that’s a thing now!
But hey, if you’re holding your breath for a 2025 release, well, join the club. The clues, the hints, the whatever-you-want-to-call-its point to it finally heading our way. I don’t know where you’re sitting on this hype train, but it’s full steam ahead—or maybe it’s a mirage? Who can tell these days?
Back in the dark days of 2019, this thing was teased. Nearly six years? Feel old yet? Silksong has you playing as Hornet, which people who played the first game totally know. If nothing else, there’s a whole new kingdom to mess around in. Some peeks at it suggest, yes, boss fights galore—because who doesn’t love smashing buttons in a panic-induced state?
Despite the zero release date (come on, Team Cherry, throw us a bone!), gamers are acting like it’s Christmas whenever a crumb of info drops. Recently, folks found an update on the official site. Like, this one dude, Primacon or whatever, shouted on social media that PS4 and Switch 2 logos are now on the list. Big yawn? Maybe. But it means stuff’s happening.
Mind wandered? Same here. Anyway—wait a sec—where was I? Oh right, platforms! Beyond that nifty tweak, Silksong has given its Steam page a makeover or two, raising eyebrows about a possible Summer Game Fest surprise. Spoiler: it didn’t happen. But, hey, some leaker guy, Nate the Hate, swears it’s coming by summer 2025.
In the saga of Silksong timing, Team Cherry recently tossed a tidbit our way. Apparently, marketing magician Matthew “Leth” Griffin cleared up some mixed signals about its release with the ROG Xbox Ally (whatever that is). He says, “BEFORE Holiday,” which means nothing to me. But it’s out before Christmas. Firm as a rock, I guess.
So there we have it. Yeah, don’t place your bets just yet. It’s the dance we know too well. But all this chatter, especially after Nintendo waved that fancy Switch 2 wand in April, might mean the end is nigh—for waiting, at least. Fingers crossed, Silksong fans! If I missed something… blame the chaos, not me.
