The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct is officially over, and amid excitement for various titles and utter shock at the pricing, Team Cherry’s Hollow Knight: Silksong briefly appeared. It received a few seconds of new gameplay during a Partner Sizzle Reel trailer with protagonist Hornet.
There’s a bit of jumping around, sliding down a slope, leaping over some spikes and combat with some enemies. It’s not much, especially since the last trailer went live in June 2022, but the Metroidvania title is listed for launch this year.
Plans could always change, especially given the long wait since it was first announced in February 2019. Though previously listed for 2023, it was delayed to an unknown date. Last year, the title was rated by the ESRB, South Korea’s GRAC and Australia’s ratings board.
Along with Nintendo Switch 2, Hollow Knight: Silksong is coming to the original Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC. Stay tuned for more details and hopefully, gameplay in the coming months.
