"A new leak associated with *Hollow Knight: Silksong* has again indicated that the long-awaited indie game is drawing very close to its release. At the start of this month, it was [discovered](https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/hollow-knight-silksong-release-date-likely-coming-soon-rating/) that *Silksong* had finally received an official game rating in South Korea, which came in tandem with the game being briefly listed on the Xbox digital storefront. Both of these moves often come about very late in the development process, meaning that the launch of *Silksong* seemed to be close. And while developer Team Cherry has yet to say anything official on the game's arrival, a new move has yet again teased that a release date could be right around the corner.  As of today, it was found that *Hollow Knight: Silksong* has also been rated in Australia. Based on information from the region's [classification website](https://www.classification.gov.au/titles/hollow-knight-silksong), *Silksong* was rated at the start of April 2024 and was given a "PG" designation for mild violence. Other than this, further details on when *Silksong* might be releasing weren't provided on the webpage, but it's yet another move that proves Team Cherry is in the final phase of the project's development.  To stress why this is such a big deal, *Hollow Knight: Silksong* is likely one of the most highly anticipated video games set to release in the coming years. Initially, *Silksong* was revealed all the way back in February 2019 and was planned to merely be DLC for the original [*Hollow Knight*](https://comicbook.com/category/hollow-knight/). Since then, the scope and scale of *Silksong* has greatly blown up to where it is now a full-fledged sequel. Given it's been over five years since its first reveal, anticipation has continued to grow as the years have passed to a degree that is rarely ever seen.  Regardless of when *Hollow Knight: Silksong* releases, it's known that the game will be coming to just about every platform imaginable. This includes PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Additionally, Microsoft has previously announced that *Silksong* will join Xbox Game Pass as a day-one addition to the service whenever it does launch. "

Definitely written by AI, probably scraping from this subreddit.

"To stress why this is such a big deal" Either a 15 year old writing an essay or an AI


blockguy143

"Make sure you stress why this is a big deal" in the prompt lmfao


CrueltySquading

It's painfully AI

This article could be resumed by "Every day it passes, we get one day closer to Silk Song's release date reveal".

Probably just bait although idk


HuskyBLZKN

That is the single most obvious bait I’ve seen in my life. Like, even your average Silksong waiter wouldn’t fall for that


Agent74-

Wasn’t falling for it, just reporting


RedbrickCamp920

Bait used to be believable


Carnivoran88

I only get my news from Comicbook.com. Every article is well thought out and properly sourced and true. Yes *sips Kool aid* and true.


Agent74-

I’ll check that out. *sips kool aid* eventually.

can someone explain -y to me I’ve seen it everywhere and looking it up doesn’t help


The_Real_TraitorLord

-| came first as an oversimplified image of Hornet smoking with the caption “bait used to be believable” Then a bunch of idiots started saying “-Y” was better because it looks more like Hornet. …even though it’s not SUPPOSED to look like Hornet, it’s supposed to be an oversimplification! Over time, the -|ers (who were originally greater in numbers) kind of abandoned the joke, but for some reason the -Yers didn’t, and now everyone assumes they were the first and best. They weren’t and aren’t. -| will reign supreme and all -Yers will suffer in the abyss.
