Geoff Keighley claims the ever-elusive Hollow Knight successor, Silksong, will not be at Gamescom's Opening Night Live, setting rampant fan expectations in check, if only slightly. Developer Team Cherry "is still cooking," according to Keighley, so we must continue to speculate in agony.
It's been a few years since we've heard anything about Silksong, so it's understandable why fans of excellent, atmospheric Souls-influenced platformers do this to themselves each time another showcase rolls around. Plus, this makes more time for that blowout Bloodborne 2 reveal, right?
Oh well, at least Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is getting a deep dive, even if it has been delayed into next year. Add to that a proper look at Civilisation VII, and this particular scribe will be pretty chuffed, regardless of whatever else is shown.
