Hollow Knight: Silksong Is Coming Out Before Holiday 2025, Team Cherry Confirms

When is Hollow Knight: Silksong coming out? It’s a question on the minds of gamers around the world, and has been for some time — but it seems the elusive game really might finally be on the horizon.

If you watched Xbox’s showcase over the weekend, you may have noticed a cameo appearance from the stylish Metroidvania.

During the segment of the show all about the ROG Xbox Ally, Silksong gameplay is featured on the handheld device — and Xbox president Sarah Bond says the game will be playable on it when it launches this holiday season.

This caused a little bit of confusion, with some taking this to mean Silksong would be launching alongside the Xbox handheld. However, Team Cherry has cleared things up.

Marketing and publishing rep Matthew Griffin made the following statement on the game’s Discord channel. “I confirmed BEFORE Holiday — we are not tied to a console release.”

So, Silksong is currently scheduled to arrive at last before this holiday season. That gives us a window of a few months or so in which the highly anticipated title will finally surface.

It’s been a long road, but it appears the destination is coming into view. Are you excited for Silksong? Tell us in the comments section below.
