Hollow Knight Silksong release date and times
UPDATE: Hollow Knight Silksong has gone live now on all platforms, though current demand has caused widespread crashes and technical issues on all major storefronts, including Steam, Xbox and Nintendo eShop. So it is technically out for purchase, but you might struggle to actually do so until things calm down.
The exception is PSN, where as of writing the game is still simply "announced" and not available for purchase, only wishlisting. That is presumably a glitch as the game was supposed to have been released, and will ideally be sorted soon.
Silksong's release was officially at the following time and dates.
- PT: September 4 2025, 7AM
- ET: September 4 2025, 10AM
- BST: September 4 2025, 3PM
- CEST: September 4 2025, 10AM
- JST: September 4 2025, 11PM
