Hollow Knight: Silksong Will Release This Summer, Claims Insider

In fact, he even goes one step further, putting his reputation on the line by claiming that Hollow Knight: Silksong will launch “before the summer of 2025 concludes”. Given that we’re currently in summer, that gives Team Cherry a very small window to actually release the game, and those with their fingers crossed that a shadow drop could be on the cards may get their wish after all.

Of course, it’s worth noting that this is just one insider’s claim, and it doesn’t confirm that Silksong is dropping this week, but NateTheHate has been extremely reliable for these past 12 months. One of the more high-profile cases of him being correct was when he claimedOblivion Remastered would be announced and released in April.

His comments also line up with a recent claim by another insider called Extas1s, who said thatXbox was preparing for a Hollow Knight: Silksong launch on Game Pass at some point in June. It’s all pointing towards good news for Silksong fans, and our long, arduous wait for Team Cherry’s next game could be over very soon. Finally, the Silksanity will be over.
