Delight, fellow Hollow Knight enthusiasts! After waiting patiently for years, gleaning scraps of information from tiny updates, we’ve finally received major news about the game’s release date.
The Reddit community for Hollow Knight has become incredibly lively, with users regularly “sharing silk posts” and coming up with creative ways to cope with the scarcity of updates regarding the game.
It appears that, following several years, there’s indeed credible information suggesting that Hollow Knight: Silksong will be released as early as 2025, and possibly earlier than previously anticipated.
The game Silksong is likely to be completely playable at an Australian museum exhibition in September. This suggests it’s probable that the game will be launched prior to this museum exhibit’s premiere.
Hollow Knight Silksong is coming in 2025 (for real this time)
On September 18, 2025, the organizers at Australia’s National Museum of Screen Culture (ACMI) have officially confirmed that Hollow Knight Silksong can be played. This game will be showcased as part of an exhibition named “Game Worlds”.
Game Worlds offers an immersive experience, taking you inside the stages of thirty iconic video games such as the epic World of Warcraft by Blizzard Entertainment, groundbreaking life simulator The Sims from Electronic Arts, and Neopets set in the realm of Neopia, along with a highly anticipated Australian title slated for release in 2025.
In the trailer for the upcoming event, the long-awaited game is clearly visible, and it turns out to be none other than Silksong.
The event organizers also confirmed the news with IGN, having this to say to the publication:
Our Silksong showcases, in detail, not only the many sprites that bring Hornet’s movements and attacks to life, but also the complex logic behind its toughest boss battles. Plus, it’s playable right in the gallery! We’re thrilled that Team Cherry has given us the opportunity to share their work with you.
It’s possible that Silksong might launch past the September 18th event, but it seems unusual to unveil some of the game’s toughest boss fights without allowing players to experience the game prior to the demonstration.
Consequently, this announcement significantly increases the chances of Silksong being launched prior to the exhibition’s date.
A widely-discussed fan theory is that the launch date of Hollow Knight isn’t visible to the public on Steam, but it’s secretly hidden within the backend system. This suggests that when games are sorted by genre, Hollow Knight 2 (Silksong) often appears between games with a similar anticipated release window across various categorical searches.
Earlier in 2025, that date was around April 30. At the time of writing, it’s been moved further down – but not by much.
Based on the accumulated data, it seems increasingly probable that Hollow Knight Silksong may launch sometime in August.
