Hollow Knight: Silksongfans thought a Steam backend update pointing to a beta was too good to be true - and it was.
Earlier today,Redditusers discovered that, according toSteamDB, Hollow Knight: Silksong had received an update of some sort onValve’s storefront. Not only was “Hollow Knight: Silksong” updated two days ago, but so was a listing for “Hollow Knight: Silksong for Beta Testing.”
Yes, this was an actual update made to Hollow Knight: Silksong effective as of earlier this week. The trouble is, this update wasn’t made by Hollow Knight developer Team Cherry, but was instead made by Valve itself.
So, everyone who suspected that a beta testing update for Silksong was too good to be true was swiftly proven correct. The Hollow Knight community has gotten pretty used to being bitterly disappointed over the past few years, with countless weeks and months of radio silence from Team Cherry, but this is still seemingly pretty hard to stomach.
Hollow Knight: Silksong reclaims its Steam wishlists crown, 3 years and 6 competitors since it last held the title.
