Hollow Knight Silksong is real, and we finally have confirmation about the upcoming title's release date. After years of asking when we will get the sequel, it's coming sooner than you may expect.
Team Cherry's sequel to the first Hollow Knight game will drop in early September. The date has been confirmed by the latest trailer showcased on YouTube. Let's quickly look at when we can start the new adventure.

Hollow Knight Silksong release countdown
Hollow Knight Silksong is coming to PC and consoles on Sept. 4. In simple words, we have exact couple of weeks left (at the time of writing) for the sequel to go live. The game will be available on current and old-gen consoles of both Xbox and PlayStation, along with ports for both versions of the Nintendo Switch, and PC.
As of writing, there doesn't appear to be an exact release time. However, the countdown below is based on the launch schedule that Team Cherry followed for the first game.
- 10am PST
- Noon CST
- 1pm EDT
- 5pm UTC
- 6pm BST
We will check the official PlayStation, Steam, and Xbox stores to stay updated with the confirmed launch timings. Although possible, I don't believe Team Cherry will go with regional launches. Last time around, the first game was originally released on PC in 2017, followed by console ports in 2018. This time, both PC and console launches will be held simultaneously.
Hollow Knight Silksong features
Silksong will be the direct sequel to the first game, and the trailer on Aug. 21 showcased what to expect. While the core gameplay remains the same, we found plenty of new enemies you'll have to take down on your journey.
You step into the shoes of Horney and explore an ancient kingdom of insects haunted by silk and song. Solve mysteries and destroy your enemies to reach the kingdom's peak. Once we have more information on the storefronts, we will update them in our guide.
