      Hollow Knight Silksong: What Is The Plot? Steam Page Explained and More

      Hollow Knight Silksong is without a doubt one of the most anticipated games in the 2020s, and Team Cherry is finally ready to showcase the game to players.

      With a launch date of September 4th, we're going to run over what Team Cherry has shared regarding the story in Silksong.

      Here's what we know. 

      Hollow Knight Silksong: What Is The Plot? Steam Page Explained and More 

      Team Cherry has been trucking along, developing the game over the course of seven years, as the game was first shown to fans back in 2019.

      From the surface level, we know we're going to play as Hornet, a character introduced early on within the original Hollow Knight, and for spoiler reasons, we won't share what their significance is to that game. 

      However, for Silksong, the game has been described as having the following plot: 

      "As the lethal hunter Hornet, adventure through a kingdom ruled by silk and song! Captured and taken to this unfamiliar world, prepare to battle mighty foes and solve ancient mysteries as you ascend on a deadly pilgrimage to the kingdom’s peak.

      Hollow Knight: Silksong is the epic sequel to Hollow Knight, the award winning action-adventure. Journey to all-new lands, discover new powers, battle vast hordes of bugs and beasts and uncover secrets tied to your nature and your past."

      We're still unsure at the time of writing if the stories between the two games connect, so stay tuned!
