Team Cherry's highly anticipated Hollow Knight: Silksong will be absent from Gamescom Opening Night Live 2024, according to Gamescom producer Geoff Keighley. This announcement, made via Twitter (X), dashed the hopes of many fans.
Silksong's Absence Confirmed
The Hollow Knight community was met with disappointment when Keighley confirmed Silksong's absence from the Gamescom ONL showcase. Earlier, Keighley's initial lineup announcement, including a "+ More" addition, fueled speculation about a potential Silksong reveal, especially given the game's prolonged silence. However, Keighley later clarified on Twitter (X) that the sequel would not feature. While confirming the game's absence, he reassured fans that Team Cherry remains dedicated to its development.
Despite the lack of Silksong news, the Gamescom ONL 2024 lineup still boasts exciting titles such as Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Monster Hunter Wilds, Civilization 7, and MARVEL Rivals. For a complete list of confirmed games and further details on the event, please see the linked article.
