Hollow Knight: Silksong fans await a Team Cherry livestream and "special announcement" on August 21, 2025 at 10:30 AM ET. Years of silence and sporadic updates have produced deep speculation and invented vocabulary within the Silksong subreddit, including terms like Believer, Doubter and Silkpost. The community evolved into a performative, hyper-focused fandom that role-plays trolling, adopts props such as clown wigs, and organizes around internal rules, heroes and villains. The scheduled announcement could change fan dynamics, resolve some mysteries, and potentially transform or dissolve existing subreddit behaviors.
On a planet shrouded in myth, in a land surrounded by lore, on a mountain draped in mystery, in a cave suffocated by secrets, the legend sleeps. For six years, the legend has slumbered while wild stories spiral around it, twisting and expanding and entwining. New words have been born and old words infused with evolved meanings: Believer. Doubter. Silkpost. The lies have grown so thick they've become corporeal, spreading trickery with a name and a dead smile.
After years of silence around its sequel, Hollow Knight: Silksong, Team Cherry has scheduled a livestream with a "special announcement" about the game for August 21 at 10:30AM ET. Not only is this exciting for Metroidvania fans everywhere, but it's also possible that this announcement marks the final moments of the Silksong subreddit as we know it. A strange cocktail of game delays, inconsistent updates and hyper-focused cult fandom has cultivated a fascinating little universe in r/Silksong, complete with its own rules, villains and heroes.
