Unfortunately, multiple gaming events have taken place in 2023 with no sign of theHollow Knightsequel. The latest development isn’t nearly as exciting as a new trailer or release date announcement, but it was noted by Wario64 on Twitter thatHollow Knight: Silksong’s Steam page has received updated assets this past week, marking the first major update to the game’s Steam page since January 2023. This has led some fans to hope that an announcement of some kind could be happening soon, but fans should keep their expectations in check.
While theHollow Knight: Silksongrelease window was planned for the first half of 2023at one point, it’s no longer looking like the Metroidvania will release this year at all. The next few months are absolutely stacked with game releases, and ifSilksongwere still releasing in 2023, one would imagine that the release date would’ve been announced by now. Beyond that, there have been multiple opportunities forHollow Knight: Silksongto announce a late 2023 release date, but it has no-showed all the major gaming events and showcases.
This includes Gamescom Opening Night Live,the recent Nintendo Direct presentation, Sony’s latest State of Play, Tokyo Game Show, and more. While there’s still a chanceHollow Knight: Silksongwill launch in 2023, the most likely scenario is that the game won’t be out until some time in 2024. It’s possible the updates to the game’s Steam page is an indication that fans are going to get some sort of update onHollow Knight: Silksongsoon, but they shouldn’t hold their breath.
