May 01, 2025 8:58 PM

Hollow Knight: Silksong, the highly anticipated sequel to Hollow Knight, is set to make an appearance at an Australian museum as part of the Game Worlds exhibition from September 18, 2025. After a long development period of six years, Team Cherry has confirmed a general release window for 2025, although a specific date is still unknown. While fans eagerly await Silksong's launch, its inclusion in the exhibition underscores its significance within the gaming community and its South Australian roots. Attendees will get a playable preview of Silksong, which promises to showcase the intricate artistic design and gameplay mechanics that the series is known for.

When will Hollow Knight: Silksong be released?

While an exact release date for Hollow Knight: Silksong is yet to be announced, Team Cherry has confirmed that it will launch sometime in 2025, with the game being playable at the Australian Game Worlds exhibition starting September 18, 2025.

Hollow Knight: Silksong is a follow-up to the critically acclaimed indie title Hollow Knight. Players take on the role of Hornet, a character with her own unique abilities, set in the same beautifully crafted world filled with various challenges and lore. The game has gained a vast fanbase, and its release is highly anticipated among gamers, especially considering how the original Hollow Knight has been praised for its challenging gameplay and immersive world design.

It's cool to see Silksong getting the museum treatment—indie games absolutely deserve that kind of recognition. Here's hoping the 2025 window sticks, because my patience is running as thin as Hornet's silk.

Finally, a 2025 window gives us something to hold onto, though I’ll believe it when I’m actually controlling Hornet. That museum exhibit sounds like a perfect way to celebrate Silksong’s art—Team Cherry’s craftsmanship deserves to be in a gallery. (Keeps it fresh by focusing on the exhibit’s artistic merit and the cautious optimism fans feel, without rehashing the long wait or hype angles from other comments.)
