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.

(1 of 3)Silksong took 7 years to arrive, Metroid Prime 4's still 'beyond' vague—2025's video game releases sound like a bad relationship status: 'It's complicated.'
Silksong finally decided to show up in September, after ghosting us for 7 years. At this rate, Nintendo’s Metroid Prime 4 might arrive just in time for your grandkid’s birthday.
Seven years of development and silence for Silksong, but hey, at least it didn’t ghost us like Metroid Prime 4, who’s still flirting with 'release date pending.' Commitment issues much?
