The Hollow Knight: Silksong community has been buzzing with excitement following the first substantial update to the game's Steam repository in years.  This revitalized activity signals that concrete news about the highly anticipated Metroidvania sequel might finally be on the horizon.

Originally revealed in February 2019 as DLC for the acclaimed Hollow Knight, Silksong's scope expanded significantly, transforming it into a full-fledged title.  However, updates from developer Team Cherry have been scarce in recent years, leaving fans yearning for information.

The recent Steam repository update has provided fans with a glimmer of hope.  The most significant revelation is the confirmation of GeForce Now support, allowing players to stream the game through Nvidia's cloud gaming service.  This aligns with previous leaks from 2021 that hinted at Silksong's inclusion on the platform.

Beyond GeForce Now compatibility, the update also confirms support for Steam Family Sharing. This feature will enable multiple users within a family group to access and play Silksong using a single purchased license.

While the update didn't include any new screenshots or gameplay footage, it did replace some header files and update the game's store categories. Notably, the copyright notice in the legal lines was revised from 2019 to 2025, further suggesting an impending release.

Speculation is rife that Silksong could launch as early as June 2025, aligning with claims made by a Spanish leaker.  Potential platforms for a release date announcement include the April 2nd Nintendo Direct, the June 6th Summer Game Fest 2025, or an upcoming Xbox Games Showcase, given Microsoft's history of showcasing indie titles.

The anticipation surrounding Hollow Knight: Silksong is palpable, and these recent updates have reignited the community's hope for a near-future release. As fans eagerly await further news, the possibility of finally embarking on Hornet's adventure seems closer than ever.
