Silksong Confirmed Absent from Gamescom ONL

The Hollow Knight community experienced a wave of disappointment when Gamescom producer Geoff Keighley confirmed via Twitter (now X) that Hollow Knight: 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, including a "+ More" section hinting at unannounced games. This fueled speculation that a much-awaited update on Silksong, following over a year of silence, was imminent.

However, Keighley later clarified on Twitter (X), definitively stating, "Just to get this out of the way, no Silksong on Tuesday at ONL." He reassured fans that Team Cherry remains dedicated to the game's development.

While Silksong news is absent, Keighley highlighted an impressive Gamescom ONL lineup featuring titles such as Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Monster Hunter Wilds, Civilization 7, MARVEL Rivals, and more.
