Hollow Knight Silksong Early Access Denied—Team Cherry Keeps It Fair
If you were hoping to sneak into Hallownest 2.0 ahead of the crowd, I’ve got bad news: Team Cherry has officially confirmed that Hollow Knight: Silksong will not have early access. That’s right—no review codes, no influencer exclusives, no “I got it early because I’m special” nonsense. We’re all launching into the void at the exact same time. And honestly? Respect.
No Early Access Means No Spoilers (Hopefully)
Team Cherry’s stance is refreshingly firm: no one gets to play Silksong before launch day. Not media, not streamers, not your cousin who swears he knows a guy. The review embargo lifts the same day the game drops, and the release time will be synchronized across all platforms and regions.
In a world where early access often turns into a chaotic mess of leaks, spoilers, and “first look” thumbnails with zero chill, this move feels like a rare act of mercy. It’s a unified launch—one massive, global descent into bug-slaying madness. And I’m here for it.
No Preorders, No Demo, No Sneak Peeks
As of now, there’s no way to preorder Hollow Knight: Silksong, and the Gamescom demo was strictly hands-on for attendees. If you weren’t physically there, you’re out of luck. No downloadable demo, no beta, no “early build” floating around in the shadows. Team Cherry is keeping this thing locked down tighter than a Mimic chest in Dark Souls.
The only exception? Xbox Game Pass members can preload the game, which is basically the digital equivalent of staring longingly at the install button until it lights u
Final Thoughts: The Pain Is Mutual
Look, we’ve waited years for Silksong. What’s a few more days of collective agony? The lack of early access means we all get to experience the chaos, heartbreak, and boss rage together. No spoilers, no unfair head starts—just pure, unfiltered Hollow Knight energy.
So go ahead and mute those keywords, prep your snacks, and block off your calendar. Because when Silksong drops, it’s going to be a beautifully brutal ride—and for once, we’re all starting at the same checkpoint.
