In a rather puzzling development, the trailer for “Hollow Knight: Silksong” has vanished from Steam. This news has stirred curiosity and speculation among fans who have been eagerly awaiting updates since the game’s announcement back in 2019. Despite the excitement, information about the upcoming Metroidvania title has been sporadic, leaving fans both anxious and hopeful for a launch by the end of 2025.
One of the more recent updates on “Hollow Knight: Silksong” came during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct event. There, the game was included in a brief snippet that confirmed it will be officially available on Nintendo’s next-gen console. However, details were scant, and now this latest trailer removal update has left fans feeling uneasy.
Interestingly, the game trailer’s disappearance from Steam hasn’t come with any explanation. For some, this has sparked worry about potential bad news on the horizon. On the flip side, there’s an optimistic camp hoping this means a fresh trailer might be lined up for release soon. Regardless of the reason, fans are eager for some clarity on the situation.
If there’s one thing “Hollow Knight” enthusiasts have learned, it’s to keep expectations in check when it comes to “Silksong”. Yet, recent leaks have injected a dose of excitement, hinting at the game’s potential feature at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 8. Given “Silksong’s” history with Xbox events and its first-day availability on Xbox Game Pass, this isn’t entirely far-fetched.
Should these rumors prove true, fans anticipate an announcement regarding the game’s release date during the Xbox Games Showcase. Some even speculate about a surprise immediate release, but it’s wise to approach such rumors with caution.
Meanwhile, Team Cherry, the developer and publisher behind “Hollow Knight: Silksong”, continues to work with the Unity engine to develop the game. As the franchise expands, fans remain hopeful for more concrete updates that can shed light on the game’s journey toward release.
