Silksong Skips Gamescom ONL, Confirms Geoff Keighley

The Hollow Knight community experienced a surge of disappointment when Geoff Keighley took to Twitter (X) to announce that Silksong, the eagerly awaited sequel to the beloved Hollow Knight series, would not feature at Gamescom's Opening Night Live (ONL) in 2024.

Initially, hope had sparked among fans after Keighley unveiled the preliminary lineup for the show, hinting at additional unannounced titles with a tantalizing "+ More." This led to widespread speculation that a long-awaited update on Silksong, silent for over a year, might finally be on the horizon.

However, these hopes were quickly extinguished when Keighley clarified on Twitter (X), stating, "Just to get this out of the way, no Silksong on Tuesday at ONL." Despite this setback, he reassured fans that Team Cherry remains diligently focused on the game's development.
