Modest for a game that's been in the making for eight years

Update: Confirmed! Team Cherry says the Hollow Knight: Silksong price is, indeed, not that much more than the OG Metroidvania. As a wee bonus, we also know that the Hollow Knight: Silksong release time isn't midnight, either.

Original story: Leaks suggest the long-awaited Hollow Knight Silksong will retail digitally for $20 - only a modest jump from the first game in the series, which came out eight whole years ago.

But where there's smoke, there's fire, and normally-reliable leaker Billbil-Kun corroborated the listing with their own "recent research", all but confirming that Silksong will, in fact, cost about $20. According to them, the final retail price on Steam will be $19.99/£16.75/€19.50 with slightly varied GOG pricing.
