![]() ![]() although surely another Nintendo Direct is happening sometime this month. By Jesse Lennox JListen to article The original Hollow Knight was first released in 2017 and was immediately recognized as one of the most impressive entries in the Metroidvania. Until then, I'm going to do my best to stop expecting to see Silksong again anytime soon. The vast inter-connected world of Hollow Knight: Silksong is brought vividly to life in a traditional, hand-crafted, 2D style. I want to be surprised again and again, just like I was in the first game, as I kept stumbling into new areas.Īs with Elden Ring's 2021 Summer Game Fest appearance, I think Silksong will be worth the wait when it does re-emerge. Hornet, princess-protector of Hallownest, finds herself alone in a vast, unfamiliar world. I want Silksong to preserve the same mystery that I felt in Hollow Knight: I really don't want to know how big the world will be or what kind of enemies I'll run into. When Silksong does come out, I expect it'll make a bigger splash than a Metroid sequel that was 20 years in the making.īut when will that be? Agonizing as the wait is, I'm okay with Team Cherry working away without the distractions of maintaining a development blog or tweeting out art or screenshots every few weeks. Metroid Dread kicked up a lot of comparisons, too, and I don't think it's too controversial to say that Hollow Knight's combat, art and level design are a cut above. I see a discussion thread from someone new playing it for the first time, and the takeaway is usually: I heard Hollow Knight was good, but I didn't think it would be this good.

Explore, fight and survive as you ascend to the peak of a land ruled by silk and song. Since then, nothing-a year and a half without a scrap of new information. Discover a vast, haunted kingdom in Hollow Knight: Silksong The sequel to the award winning action-adventure. Clocking in at just under 20 minutes, the video shares plenty of gameplay (including a look at the Moss Grotto area that was playable at EGX 2019) and info about what to expect from Hollow Knight: Silksong. Then it was quiet for a year, until our sister publication Edge magazine ran a cover feature on Silksong in December 2020. The longest gameplay trailer came from the reveal event at E3 2019, where Nintendo debuted a lengthy look during their Treehouse section. It's understandable: Hollow Knight: Silksong was announced in February 2019 and shown a couple times that year. That sure feels like the Elden Ring subreddit after yet another disappointment, though there aren't quite as many poor souls posting in pain. ![]()
