Developed by the talented team at Team Cherry ๐ฆ๐บ, Silksong has been in the works since its initial announcement in February 2019. Originally planned as DLC for the indie classic Hollow Knight ๐ฐ, it grew into a full-fledged sequel. However, after years of sparse updates, fans have been left hanging ๐โuntil now.
๐ Recent Steam Repo Update: Whatโs New?
On March 23, 2025, Reddit user TheSpartan121 spotted some exciting updates to the Hollow Knight: Silksong Steam repository. ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ The most notable discovery? The game is confirmed to support Nvidiaโs GeForce Now โ๏ธ, a cloud-based gaming platform that allows users to stream PC titles. ๐ฅ
This news suggests that Silksong is being actively prepared for release! ๐ The original Hollow Knight has been on GeForce Now for a while, but this is the first clear confirmation that the sequel will follow suit.

๐ Additional Changes: Family Sharing & Library Updates
The Steam repository update wasnโt limited to GeForce Now support. ๐ฎ The update also includes:
- Steam Family Sharing functionality ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ, allowing family members to share access to the game under a single license.
- Revised library assets ๐๏ธ and header filesโalthough, sadly, no new Silksong screenshots have been added yet. ๐ธ
๐๏ธ Copyright Change Hints at a 2025 Release
One of the most intriguing clues? The update to Silksongโs copyright notice. ๐ Previously listed as 2019, itโs now been updated to 2025, hinting that a release may be coming soon. ๐
This potential timeline has been backed by Spanish leaker Extas1s, who recently claimed that Hollow Knight: Silksong is expected to launch no later than June 2025. ๐๏ธ
๐ข Possible Launch Announcements: Where & When?
If Silksong is indeed close to release, several upcoming gaming events could serve as ideal platforms for the big reveal:
