It was Tuesday, June 25, 2019. San Francisco became the first American city to ban (temporarily) the sale of vapes, SpaceX successfully launched and deployed 24 satellites and I sat in the British office of Nintendo on the outskirts of London, playing a demo of a game that has still not been released.
However, according to the presentation of the Switch 2 of yesterday, Hollow knight: Silksong will arrive at one point this year. Nintendo even showed a few seconds of new images. There are slopes!
Oh Silk songOh Hollow knight: SilksongOh Hollow knightReused DLC. The second Hollow knight The game of Team Cherry was initially supposed to be an addition of DLC to the original, but the plans changed, the developers saying that it had become “too large and too unique." (Many years later, exactly how much the will Silk song be?)
Later, as part of the Vitrine des Games Xbox and Bethesda 2022, a Silk song Trailer has packed an release date in the next 12 months as part of Xbox’s attempt to deliver a fascinating game wave after a dull start for the launch of the X / S series.
When the release date of the beginning of 2023 exceeded us, the Cherry team delayed the game in 2024 and now, well, it was 2025. I played this demo so long that it could be a dream.
Without entirely rewrising my practical impressions of six years, the new game presents a new playable character named Hornet, who presented a reproducible boss fight in the original Hollow knightWith silk -based attacks and a faster and more agile gameplay. It also offers a more aggressive style of play, with Hornet capable of healing using silk loads and even repairing damage with silk beams left on behalf of unsuccessful previous attempts. It is a touch of gameplay different from having to beat the Hollow Knight shadow in the original.
I subtitled my practical impressions, saying that it is worth waiting for “. At the time, I had recently finished Hollow knight On the switch, by organizing a few hours too long and was hungry more adventures metroidvania in the shape of a bug. Silk song I felt fresh, more responsive, faster and more flashy – and I just wanted to play more Hollow knight.
Barely six seconds of sequences during the presentation of Nintendo Switch 2 was sufficient to rekindle the Silk song Fandom, when he revealed nothing more than more than a crossing of the descent. This is proof that many people are always excited – and always wait.
I am excited, and six years later, I have the impression that it must be close enough.
RIGHT?
