Silksong Drops After 7 Years, Metroid Still Ghosting

After seven years of vague silence, Team Cherry has finally given us a release date for 'Silksong,' the eagerly awaited sequel to 'Hollow Knight,' landing September 4th. The Verge reports that fans sick of countdowns can rejoice, while Nintendo creeps in quietly with 'Metroid Prime 4: Beyond' somewhere in the Switch 2 launch chaos. As the article puts it, 2025 is "shaping up to be the year" when long-delayed games remember they existed. Because nothing says 'fresh' like years of abandonment followed by a hurried release schedule.
