The game was first announced in 2019 and has since been eagerly awaited by fans. After several delays and a lengthy development period, Team Cherry has finally set a concrete release date. The developers have cited the desire to ensure that the game meets their high standards and that it includes all the features they envisioned [2].
Silksong will be playable on the Nintendo Switch 2, which features a 120Hz TV Mode, allowing for smoother gameplay. This is expected to be a significant draw for Nintendo Switch users [1]. PC gamers are also anticipated to show strong support for the game, given its popularity on Steam, where it is the most wishlisted game [2].
Sony and Nintendo are expected to see the majority of console sales, as these platforms have a larger user base compared to Microsoft's Xbox. Microsoft's smaller user base is likely to result in fewer copies sold on the Xbox platform [1].
The development of Silksong has been a lengthy process, with the team taking seven years to complete the game. The last two years were dedicated to polishing and adding details to ensure the game is of the highest quality [2].
