Overview
- Team Cherry released Silksong on September 4 with regional go-live times, hitting PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One/Series, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, and PC via Steam, GOG and Humble.
- The launch price is $19.99 (about 20 euros), and the game is included from day one in Xbox Game Pass.
- Heavy player demand briefly disrupted Steam, Nintendo eShop, PlayStation and Xbox stores before service recovered, with reports of early Steam concurrents topping 100,000.
- Early reactions highlight excitement, while Xbox’s storefront shows a surge of off‑topic and meme reviews that contrast with Steam’s more structured user feedback.
- The sequel features Hornet in a new kingdom with hand‑drawn art and Christopher Larkin’s score, and developers have promised over 200 enemies and up to 40 bosses.
