Hollow Knight: Silksong fans have uncovered a new potential clue pointing to the game’s release window, hinting it may not arrive until after June 6, 2025. While an official release date remains elusive, this fresh discovery might help eager gamers better anticipate the sequel’s launch.
Silksong, the highly anticipated follow-up to the beloved Hollow Knight, was first revealed in February 2019. Since then, development has continued for over six years with few major updates—until recently. The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct presentation on April 2, 2025, confirmed that Silksong is expected to release in 2025, reigniting fans’ hopes for an imminent launch.
Adding to the excitement, a Reddit user named JizzX69 spotted an intriguing detail on the Nintendo Japan website. According to the site, Hollow Knight: Silksong is listed among games slated for release after June 6, 2025, for the upcoming Switch 2 console. This suggests that the game might not be a launch title for the new hardware and may arrive later in the year.
While Team Cherry remains tight-lipped about exact dates, this discovery narrows down the possible release timeframe and offers a better picture of when fans might finally dive back into the beautifully haunting world of Hollow Knight — this time with Hornet in the spotlight.
Stay tuned as the community eagerly awaits official word from Team Cherry and further updates on the Silksong release.
