In the latest Nintendo Direct event, fans of the highly anticipated game Hollow Knight: Silksong were disappointed once again as the game failed to appear. The absence of Silksong, which was indicated by a comment from a developer at Team Cherry, has left many fans eagerly awaiting news of its release.
Last month, Matthew Griffin, Team Cherry’s marketing and publishing manager, took to Twitter to announce that Hollow Knight: Silksong would be delayed beyond the first half of 2023.
Today, on the same day as the Nintendo Direct, Griffin retweeted his original message, seemingly suggesting that fans shouldn’t expect the game to be showcased at the event.
Fans of Silksong have been relatively patient with the delays, understanding the team’s need to ensure the game is polished and ready for release. However, the repeated absence of the game in Nintendo Direct presentations tests their patience.
Earlier this year, during a Nintendo Direct in February, fans were similarly disappointed when Silksong failed to appear, leading to increased doubts about its initial release window.
In response to the previous absence, a playtester for Silksong assured fans that the entire development team empathized with their anticipation and frustrations. But with the game once again skipping the latest Nintendo Direct, it is likely that Team Cherry will face disappointed fans and the need for further reassurance.
While the reasons behind Silksong’s continued absence remain unclear, the community hopes that the development team is taking the necessary time to perfect the highly anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed Hollow Knight.
Fans are eagerly awaiting any official updates or announcements regarding the release date and are keeping their fingers crossed for future opportunities to catch a glimpse of Silksong in action.
As the anticipation and excitement for Hollow Knight: Silksong grows, fans must remain patient and wait for official updates from Team Cherry or Nintendo [1].
In the meantime, fans can find solace in knowing that the development team is committed to delivering a polished and unforgettable gaming experience with Silksong.
