Team Cherry has kept gamers waiting for years. After the original Hollow Knight became a massive success, its sequel Silksong was officially announced back in 2019. But since then, only limited information about this much-anticipated Metroidvania title has been released. Now, the game’s Steam page has been updated, hinting that a major announcement might finally be on the way.
Could Summer Game Fest 2025 Reveal Big News?
With Summer Game Fest 2025 right around the corner, speculation around upcoming titles is heating up. Among the most anticipated is Hollow Knight: Silksong, though fans still don’t know when the game will actually launch.
However, we might finally be getting closer to an official reveal. The game’s SteamDB page has been updated recently, with a new Changenumber, indicating behind-the-scenes changes to its store listing.
New Achievements, Files, and Steam Logo Changes
According to a report by Kami, several changes have been made to Silksong’s Steam page. These include the addition of achievements, new game files, an updated Steam logo, and other adjustments — all reflecting in the new Changenumber entry.
Even more importantly, the game’s trailer has received an age rating, suggesting that it may soon be re-released or shown officially. These aren’t just small tweaks — they’re part of a larger, more significant update to the game’s profile.
Given the timing, could this be a sign that a major announcement is coming during Summer Game Fest? Possibly. Still, fans have been let down before — the game’s Steam page was also updated earlier this year in April, but no news followed.
Team Cherry Breaks Silence Earlier This Year
In early 2025, developer Team Cherry made a rare public update. Matthew Griffin, the game’s marketing and PR lead, responded on X (formerly Twitter) to fans asking for news about the long-awaited sequel.
His message was brief but reassuring:
“Yes, the game is real, it’s in development, and it will be released.”
