The countdown is nearly over. Hollow Knight: Silksong, one of the most anticipated indie sequels in recent memory, will release on September 4, 2025. Developer Team Cherry has now confirmed both the official pricing and the exact launch schedule, putting an end to months of speculation.
The game will be available at 7 AM PT, 10 AM ET, 4 PM CEST, and 11 PM JST across supported regions. Pricing has been set at USD $19.99, EUR €19.99, and JPY ¥2300, with regional equivalents also confirmed, including £16.75 in the UK, $25.99 CAD in Canada, $29.50 AUD in Australia, and $28.99 NZD in New Zealand. This aligns with earlier leaks from GameStop and Dealabs, which had listed a similar price point for the PC and Nintendo Switch versions. The consistent global pricing suggests that Team Cherry is aiming to make the game accessible to as wide an audience as possible.
Silksong has been in development for several years, following its announcement as a follow-up to the critically acclaimed Hollow Knight. This time, players will step into the role of Hornet, princess-protector of Hallownest, as she finds herself captured and transported to a mysterious new kingdom. The adventure promises more than 200 enemy types, 40 unique boss battles, and an expansive new world map, all designed to expand upon the foundation of the original.
Fans recently caught a glimpse of the game at Gamescom 2025, where it was showcased running on both the Xbox Rog Ally and the Nintendo Switch 2. A new trailer also debuted during a live stream earlier this month, offering another look at the expanded combat and traversal mechanics. With the release just four days away, anticipation is reaching its peak.
Hollow Knight: Silksong launches digitally on September 4, 2025, marking the return of one of the most beloved indie franchises of the past decade.
