Hollow Knight: Silksong will launch on September 4 and will be available on PC (Steam), PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2, with day-one availability on Xbox Game Pass. The release date was confirmed shortly after Gamescom Opening Night Live. Earlier confirmations had indicated a 2025 Switch 2 launch and later inclusion as a launch title for ROG Xbox Ally handhelds, which are slated for October 16; Team Cherry clarified the game is not tied to a console release and will arrive before the holiday season. A hands-on demo was playable at Gamescom 2025. Team Cherry says the studio enjoyed the seven-year development process.
Yes, it's real. After years of silence, speculation, and collective internet frenzy, Hollow Knight: Silksong finally has a release date. And it's coming out surprisingly soon. The sequel to indie hit Hollow Knight will release in two weeks, on September 4, developer Team Cherry announced through a release date trailer on Thursday. The action platformer will be available to buy on PC (via Steam), PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2. It will also be playable day one on Xbox Game Pass.
After a long stretch of radio silence from Team Cherry, the Metroidvania action title was confirmed to launch in 2025 at the Switch 2 Nintendo Direct presentation in April. Then, at Xbox Games Showcase in June, Microsoft announced that Hollow Knight: Silksong would be a launch title for the ROG Xbox Ally handhelds, which have now been confirmed to launch on October 16.
