Workforce Cherry has quietly up to date Steam belongings for its highly-anticipated Hole Knight sequel, Hole Knight: Silksong.
As noticed by Wario64 with the assistance of SteamDB, Hole Knight: Silksong on Steam has had its first vital replace since January 2023, with Workforce Cherry quietly swapping out a graphic for an up to date model.
Whereas it is by no means indicative of an upcoming launch date or something like that – sorry – the adjustments to the storefront graphics are a minimum of an indication that work continues to be underway behind the scenes, with the group twice importing “capsule artwork” – that’s, the art work you see on the sport’s storefront – within the final week, the newest of which was uploaded earlier at the moment.
From what followers can inform, a second model of the identical picture was uploaded to right a small stylistic error on the picture uploaded on twenty first September (it appears to be like as if just one “L” was capitalised within the recreation’s identify, while the substitute picture has each capitalised), but it surely’s the primary time Workforce Cherry has made any change to the Silksong Steam storefront all yr past a handful of tag amendments, so make of that what you’ll (thanks, PCGN).

For now, Hole Knight: Silksong has no formal launch date – or perhaps a launch window – however we’ll let you already know when that adjustments.
“Hole Knight is easy in its presentation of a tragic world secreted inside a subterranean kingdom,” I wrote once I reviewed Hole Knight for Eurogamer manner again in 2018. “You would be forgiven for complicated its beautiful fashion for simplicity; although hand-painted in a darkish, muted palette, your explorations are accompanied by a masterful rating, the cartoon-like visuals are shockingly misleading. Hole Knight is not all in favour of spoon-feeding you a narrative or holding your hand. Certain, it might look tremendous cute, however beneath the quirky covers it’s ruthlessly powerful, even often unfair.
“There’s a lot extra to speak about: the quirky forged, the beautiful, refined setpieces, the particular talents, the colosseum, the grubs (oh, I really like them so), however actually, this can be a journey tailormade for exploration and self-discovery, so quite than examine it, I can solely urge you to play it. For those who’ve been searching for a elegant platformer (and may tackle a tricky little Metroidvania with out screaming in anger or frustration), put this in your wishlist, or higher nonetheless, seize it now. You will not remorse it.”
