The wait is finally (almost) over. Six years after Team Cherry announced that Hollow Knight: Silksong would be a standalone sequel rather than simply the DLC it was originally imagined as, one of the most anticipated games of the decade has a release date, and it’s soon. As a new trailer reveals, Silksong will be in players’ hands on September 4.
Aside from that important date, the new trailer didn’t reveal much new information about Silksong — not that it needed to. The hype for the game has grown to such a fever pitch over the years that its mere existence is cause for celebration. What we can glean from the trailer is that Silksong is going to be huge.
