There’s No Hollow Knight: Silksong Release Date, but It’ll Be Playable in Fall

While we don’t know the release date for the Hollow Knight follow-up Hollow Knight: Silksong yet, we do know it will be playable starting in September 2025. Team Cherry’s upcoming title will be a part of the ACMI Game Worlds museum exhibit that starts on September 18, 2025, then ends on February 8, 2026. Tickets to attend will go on sale in July 2025, but the waitlist is available now. [Thanks, IGN!] It is currently unknown how extensive the Hollow Knight: Silksong demo will be at the ACMI exhibit. IGN’s reveal and the ACMI statement didn’t note if this will be a demo Team Cherry specifically constructed for the museum that will offer a slice of gameplay, or if this could be the full game on display. The last update on the game came during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct at the beginning of April 2025. Nintendo confirmed it would appear on both the Switch and Switch 2 in 2025 during the presentation. At the time, only a brief clip of gameplay appeared.
