We get yet another confirmation the game is still being worked on.
"Hello there, welcome back to GRTV News, I'm Alex as usual going through the afternoons latest and greatest when it comes to gaming, technology, entertainment, whatever you like, whatever you love, we always have it here for you at GRTV News and in the wider Gamereactor network as a whole."
"So if you like what you see and you want to see more, be sure to check out Gamereactor wherever you get it from for more gaming reviews, gaming previews, exclusives, interviews, movie reviews, series reviews and of course so so so much more.
Without further ado, today we're getting today's news piece, and it has been quite a slow news day today to be honest, there's some stuff trickling in over from the weekend, but otherwise it does seem like January, going from the excitement of last week and the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal, we're mostly just sort of settling back into that early period before the storm hits early next month when we're going to be getting major major releases."
"In any case, Hollow Knight Silksong has been told that it's real again, or Hollow Knight Silksong fans can rest easy because the game has been once again sort of confirmed to be real and being worked on.
This does seem like a bit of a nothing burger of a news, but we did have recently some speculation sorry, on a ARG sort of experience that was going to be like a Hollow Knight 2 thing that just turned out to be nothing, it was a rumour of yet another thing sparking fan hopes, and at the same time we've got again people just sort of really wanting to know, excuse me, is this game coming out, is this game real, what can we expect from this game, and Matthew Griffin Head of Marketing at Team Cherry was basically, he reassured one fan by saying like as we see here, yes the game is real, progressing and will release, but fails to give any information on when that might be, when we might see more from it, and it again just sort of doesn't really actually answer a lot of fan fears and doesn't really sort of seek to calm them."
"This game was first announced in 2019 and it gave us a showcase last at 2022 at the Xbox and Bethesda showcase where they said a year from now all of these games will have released and about two of them actually were, so you know delays happen, we're used to them, but with a game like Hollow Knight Silksong where to be honest it's a Metroidvania, we get a dime a dozen of them pretty much every year, and although Hollow Knight is regarded as one of the absolute best and sort of standards of the genre, the fact that we're hearing basically nothing is always quite concerning and it always does sort of make the game feel quite, what's the word without sounding too negative here, but it does make the game seem quite fake at times, almost as if it's not real."
"It is definitely real, it is definitely being worked on, but just the lack of news makes you think, well when are we going to see it?
And hopefully it'll be this year, hopefully there will be something coming soon, because you'd imagine so, you'd imagine, and Team Cherry has been working incredibly hard on it and obviously expectations are incredibly high as well, so you can see why the game has been delayed, but hopefully we could have two sort to be forever unreleased games released this year, we've got GTA 6 hopefully coming out this year and perhaps Hollow Knight Silksong could come out as well."
"Do you have high hopes for Hollow Knight Silksong coming out this year, do you think it's just going to be sort of abandoned?
Let me know all that and more and I'll see you tomorrow for some more GeoTV News, goodbye."
