As Gamescom 2024 approaches, excitement is building for the Opening Night Live event, set to kick off on Tuesday at 20:00 CEST. This highly anticipated occasion will welcome both the media and the public and promises a showcase of several confirmed titles along with unexpected announcements.
However, producer and host Geoff Keighley understands the immense expectations that surround such occasions, which can often overshadow reality. The situation surrounding Hollow Knight: Silksong serves as the most notable example of this phenomenon. In a timely announcement to manage fan expectations, Keighley has revealed that Silksong will not be featured at ONL, as the development team is still diligently working on the game.
The title has been on the radar for several years now and, ideally, it would have been released by this point. Yet, Team Cherry's silence leaves much to the imagination. Currently, the only indication we have that the project is still alive comes from Geoff Keighley’s latest update.
Will players ever have the chance to experience Silksong? Only time will tell.
