Unfortunately, the game wasn’t present there otat Nintendo’s most recent Indie Game World showcase in May. That means that Silksong should launch by June 2023.įans have been clamoring for updates on Silksong, hoping that they’d see something new at a Nintendo Direct or during this past Thursday’s Summer Game Fest.

While we didn’t get any hint of a release date during the trailer, Microsoft noted that every game shown during today’s stream would launch within 12 months. It didn’t seem like the game was coming to PlayStation and Xbox initially, so the Game Pass reveal comes as a major surprise. The sequel to 2017’s Hollow Knight was revealed in 2019 only for Nintendo Switch and PC.

Even Returnal, for those who managed to get their hands on a PS5, can be a great game to play while waiting for more news on Team Cherry's Silksong. If Aeterna Noctis is not something players are looking forward to, there are a plethora of other indie titles that do have many similarities with Hollow Knight, including the critically acclaimed Hades, or the less recent Shovel Knight. RELATED: No Hollow Knight: Silksong Information Planned for E3, Developer Says For those unfamiliar with the game, Aeterna Noctis is a brand-new IP made by Aeternum Game Studios, and it draws inspiration from Hollow Knight for some of its areas and enemies, while also being a prime example of Metroidvania games. In fact, while the fact that a release date is not yet on the table for Hollow Knight: Silksong, Aeterna Noctis is going to launch later this year. Thus, the chances of Silksong dropping at some point in 2021 are extremely slim, but that shouldn't be a killjoy for fans out there because the wait for the next Hollow Knight game can still be pleasant and full of things to do.
