Hollow Knight: Silksong’s Journey
Hollow Knight: Silksong has soared back to the top of Steam’s wishlist following the brief rise of Inzoi, which claimed its spot only temporarily. Despite the excitement around Inzoi, which showcased significant gameplay potential, fans remain eager for Hollow Knight’s return which has left many longing for updates during its six-year buildup.
“It’s now 2025, a long six-year vigil later, and there’s still been no real news.”
(Translation: The anticipation continues, but players are eager for an actual release date.)
As of April 2, 2025, it has amassed a staggering 324,040 followers, suggesting that despite the wait, interest in Hollow Knight: Silksong remains unwavering. Many gamers wonder, however, if this continued hype is more of a reflection of habit rather than real enthusiasm. Some fans may have simply left it on their wishlist out of sheer hope rather than active anticipation.
Fans are hoping that the upcoming Nintendo Direct may yield more than a mere sliver of information, as hope remains that 2025 might finally see its first real launch after years of speculations and false alarms.
