The wait for Hollow Knight: Silksong, the eagerly awaited sequel to the critically acclaimed metroidvania masterpiece, has taken an exciting turn. Fans have been scouring the internet for any morsel of information regarding the game’s release, and a recent discovery has only fueled the anticipation further.
In a development that has sent ripples through the gaming community, Hollow Knight: Silksong has been officially age-rated in South Korea, receiving a 12+ classification. While the rating itself was registered back in February, it has only now come to light, thanks to the tireless efforts of dedicated fans.
This age rating revelation comes hot on the heels of another significant milestone – the game’s appearance on the Xbox Store, where it has been made available for wishlisting. The addition was even promoted by Microsoft executives, including Sarah Bond, who reminded players of the game’s day-one availability on Xbox Game Pass.
