Hollow Knight: Silksong recently received a classification in South Korea, sparking speculation about an upcoming announcement concerning its release date. The excitement surrounding Hollow Knight: Silksong is at an all-time high, with fans eagerly anticipating news about its launch.
Serving as the highly awaited sequel to the critically acclaimed indie game Hollow Knight, Hollow Knight: Silksong is crafted by Team Cherry and offers a fresh adventure within the same eerie and immersive world as its predecessor. Players will embody Hornet, a mysterious princess-protector, venturing through a vast, interconnected kingdom filled with dangerous foes, challenging platforming sequences, and intricate boss fights reminiscent of those in Hollow Knight.
The recent South Korea classification of Hollow Knight: Silksong has reignited rumors of an impending release date reveal. The classification, suitable for ages 12 and above, was uncovered in February by a Resetera user, signaling progress in the game's development. This revelation gained momentum following the launch of a Hollow Knight: Silksong store page on Xbox.

An exciting development emerged with an Xbox employee's tweet about a new store listing for Silksong, allowing players to add the much-anticipated sequel to their Xbox wishlist. This update has fueled further speculation about an impending announcement, especially because the tweet came from Nick Zuclich, an Xbox Portfolio Senior Content Planning Manager. Nonetheless, despite the buzz, Hollow Knight: Silksong still lacks a definitive release timeframe, and Team Cherry has maintained silence since the initial delay, leaving fans unsure of what to expect from the highly anticipated sequel in 2024.
Hollow Knight has been a remarkable indie gaming success story, showcasing the vast potential of indie games.
