Silksong is out soon, and indie games are getting out of the way

Yesterday, Hollow Knight: Silksong developers Team Cherry announced a September 4th release date for the long-awaited game, and indie developers are announcing delays to get out of the way of the launch. Silksong is a full sequel to the excellent Hollow Knight and is currently the most wishlisted game on Steam, so it’s likely going to be very popular when it’s finally available.

Panik Arcade, which was set to release its “hellish gambling roguelike” CloverPit on September 3rd, has pushed the game’s launch to September 26th. “We poured our hearts into our little game so of course we want to give it the best possible shot,” Panik Arcade says. “We hope you can understand — we’ll use the extra time of course to polish the game even further and we hope for your support at launch either way.”
