The gaming community is buzzing with excitement following Microsoft's recent mention of Hollow Knight: Silksong in an official Xbox post, coupled with intriguing backend updates to the game's Steam listing. These developments have sparked widespread speculation that a re-reveal and potential release could be on the horizon.
On March 24, eagle-eyed fans noticed updates to the Steam metadata for Hollow Knight: Silksong, as reported by SteamDB. These updates included an opt-in for the game on GeForce Now, Nvidia’s video game streaming platform, along with changes to assets and the Steam store page's legal lines. Notably, the copyright for Hollow Knight was updated from 2019 to 2025, hinting at a possible release date.
With these clues pointing toward imminent news, anticipation is building, especially with Nintendo's Switch 2 Direct scheduled for April 2. Fans are eagerly awaiting any announcements regarding Hollow Knight: Silksong, which could potentially be showcased and even released as a timed exclusive on Nintendo’s next-generation console.
It's been six years since Hollow Knight: Silksong was first announced, and while updates have been sparse, the community's interest remains fervent. January saw a flurry of activity when a developer's cryptic social media post fueled speculation about a re-reveal during the upcoming Switch 2 Direct.
Originally, Team Cherry confirmed that Hollow Knight: Silksong would launch on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Nintendo Switch. Additionally, the game is highly anticipated on Xbox Game Pass, following Microsoft's deal to include Silksong on its subscription service from day one.

In June 2022, Microsoft included Hollow Knight: Silksong in its Xbox-Bethesda Showcase, promising that everything shown would be playable within the next 12 months. However, in May 2023, Team Cherry announced a delay past the first half of 2023, stating that the game had grown significantly and they needed more time to polish it. Matthew Griffin, Team Cherry’s marketing and publishing lead, emphasized their commitment to delivering a high-quality game.
As the sequel to the critically acclaimed 2017 game Hollow Knight, Silksong carries immense expectations. It remains one of the most wishlisted games on Steam, a testament to its anticipated impact on the gaming world. IGN's review of the original Hollow Knight praised its rich world, compelling story, and the freedom it offers players in exploring its vast, secret-filled landscape.
