Hollow Knight: Silksong's Absence from Gamescom 2024 Opening Night Live

Silksong Skips Gamescom ONL, Confirmed by Geoff Keighley

The Hollow Knight fanbase experienced a wave of disappointment when Gamescom producer Geoff Keighley confirmed via Twitter (now X) that Silksong, the highly anticipated sequel, would not be featured at Gamescom Opening Night Live (ONL) 2024.

Initial excitement surged among fans after Keighley unveiled the initial ONL lineup, hinting at unannounced additions with a "+ More" notation. This fueled speculation that a much-awaited Silksong update, following over a year of silence, was imminent.

However, Keighley later dispelled these hopes with a definitive statement on Twitter (X): "Just to get this out of the way, no Silksong on Tuesday at ONL." He reassured fans that Team Cherry remains actively developing the game.

While Silksong news is absent, the Gamescom ONL 2024 lineup still boasts exciting titles including Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Monster Hunter Wilds, Civilization 7, MARVEL Rivals, and more.
