Hollow Knight: Silksong Launches Sept. 4 for $19.99 With Day-One Game Pass

Team Cherry says the years-long wait reflected scope growth rather than problems.

Overview

  • The game goes live Thursday, Sept. 4 at 7 a.m. PT / 10 a.m. ET, with Team Cherry also listing corresponding times for the U.K., Europe, Japan and Australia.
  • Silksong releases on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and Switch 2 with day-one availability on Xbox Game Pass.
  • Switch 2 players unlock enhanced features such as a 120Hz mode by downloading a free eShop Upgrade Pack after redeeming the original Switch version.
  • Kickstarter backers will receive download codes via email and must complete their surveys, with those missing the cut-off able to contact Team Cherry to obtain keys.
  • No pre-release review copies were distributed, keeping early impressions limited to event demos, while interest drove the original Hollow Knight past 71,000 concurrent Steam players and to August’s most-played on Steam Deck.
