Hollow Knight Silksong Still Has No Release Date, Though It’s Confirmed Coming Before the Holiday
[summaraize]
In case you missed it, Hollow Knight Silksong made a surprise appearance during the Xbox Games Showcase, though not in a way that many were hoping for. The game appeared in a promotional trailer for Xbox’s partnership with ROG for their ROG Xbox Ally handheld, promising that players can play the game on the device when it launches this year.
Although Microsoft confirmed a Holiday release for the ROG Xbox Alley handheld, it seems that Hollow Knight Silksong will be arriving even before that for other platforms.
Hollow Knight Fans Will Be Able to Get Their Hands on Silksong Before the Holidays
Outside of Xbox confirming that Hollow Knight Silksong would be releasing this year, and fully playable on the ROG Xbox Alley handheld, they left the specifics out of it, including when the ROG Xbox Alley handheld would be available. Pricing and pre-order dates were also left out, but they did confirm that it was coming soon, with the ROG Xbox Alley slated to arrive this Holiday.
Many took this as meaning that Hollow Knight Silksong would be launching alongside it, but that seems not to be the case. This was hinted at by Matthew Griffin, the person in charge of Hollow Knight’s Marketing & Publishing, who confirmed in a live chat during the event that the game would be arriving before the holidays. Redditors were quick to capture this during the stream’s chat, which you can see below:
I guess this confirms that it won’t be launching AFTER December 24/25, so that’s a few days off the year we can cross off our calendars. At the very least, it does seem like the studio is finally going to be releasing the title, after being over six years since the game’s announcement.
Fingers crossed we get a set release date soon, but till then, don’t remove the clown makeup just yet.
