In a new video that just premiered on YouTube, developer Team Cherry announced the release date for Hollow Knight: Silksong. Hollow Knight: Silksong will be released on September 4, 2025 — just two weeks away.

Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier posted on his Bluesky account that developer Team Cherry has opted not to send out preview codes to media outlets before launch. That's at least in part due to wanting to ensure reviewers aren't playing before those who backed the original game on Kickstarter.

Silksong is finally right around the corner, and its release date is a solid lesson for both fans and industry insiders.
