Kickstarter backers from late 2014 will receive download codes for Hollow Knight: Silksong limited to PC, Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. The full game launches September 4 on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. Team Cherry will contact backers for platform choices and email addresses to deliver PC (Steam and DRM-free) or Nintendo Switch keys. The previous Kickstarter update occurred in 2019. A Gamescom demo resembles the E3 2019 demo. Bloomberg reporting suggested reviews may not reach critics early to honor backer access. Hollow Knight concurrent players hit a Steam peak, and some indies are delaying releases.
The only caveat is that keys for Hollow Knight: Silksong will only be available on PC, Switch, and Switch 2. The game will also launch September 4 on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. "We'll be reaching out in the (very) near future to find out your platforms of choice and the best email addresses to send your copy/s. Keys will be provided as either PC (Steam and DRM free) or Nintendo Switch (Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2),"
Kickstarter backers receiving Hollow Knight: Silksong codes was foreshadowed yesterday when Bloomberg's Jason Schreier posted on social media that reviews probably wouldn't be ready before the game's launch. That's reportedly because Team Cherry would find it unfair for critics to play the game earlier than original backers. The anticipation for Hollow Knight: Silksong's upcoming launch feels pretty tangible. For instance, Hollow Knight just hit an all-time concurrent-players peak on Steam with over 22,000 people.
