Team Cherry says that 'if there were ever other' Hollow Knight games after Silksong, they'd all be self-contained and 'exist alongside one another'

Hornet holds a hand up to her mask to help shade her eyes from a sunbeam in Hollow Knight: Silksong.

We're now thoroughly in the afterglow of Silksong—after years of build-up, skongsanity, conspiracy theories, and ill-advised daily news programs, Team Cherry's long-anticipated "sequel" to Hollow Knight landed and was… well, just a very good game. And more to the point, one that stood on its own eight legs. Part sequel, part self-contained romp through a whole new kingdom.

Which was not only on purpose, says Team Cherry, but a tactic the developer will be carrying on into the future. If they ever made a new Hollow Knight game, that is. That's per an interview contained in a paperback guide for the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (thanks, GamesRadar+).
