Hollow Knight: Silksong is an upcoming Metroidvania video game developed and published by Australian independent developer Team Cherry scheduled to be released sometime before 25 December 2025. The sequel to 2017's Hollow Knight, it will be released on Linux, macOS, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
Silksong follows Hornet, the former princess of Hollow Knight's fallen kingdom of Hallownest and a supporting character of that game, as she is forced to explore a new land. It includes expanded gameplay based on Hornet's combat skills, a larger game world, and a quest system. Originally conceived as downloadable content, the scope of the project grew enough that Team Cherry announced in February 2019 that it would become a standalone sequel.
