Australian developer Team Cherry has finally shed light on its post-launch roadmap for Hollow Knight: Silksong, confirming that cut content from the original game's development will eventually make its way into the sequel. In a recent interview with Bloomberg, co-creators Ari Gibson and William Pellen discussed how the studio intends to support the title with additional content, drawing direct parallels to the expansive updates released for the original Hollow Knight.
In an interview with Bloomberg (via IGN), the developers mentioned their plans include the Steel Assassin Sharpe, a character first teased a few years ago. Gibson described Sharpe and his companions as having been waiting for the right moment to appear. While the character was initially cut due to the sheer density of enemies in the base game, the team is now keen to reintroduce him. Gibson noted that Sharpe and his companions still require polishing, but the studio is committed to finally bringing the assassin and his team into the fold to hunt down Hornet.
When discussing the broader philosophy for Silksong's DLC, Gibson emphasised a balance between fulfilling old promises and exploring new creative avenues. He assured fans that the team intends to deliver on their obligations, citing the “Village of Lions” as a specific example, but also noted that they have their own internal ideas for expanding the universe. The scale of these updates will vary, with Gibson hinting at the possibility of larger expansions similar to Godmaster, which added a dedicated boss rush mode to the original game. The developers also highlighted how the shift to Hornet as a protagonist fundamentally changes how they approach new content. Unlike the silent Knight, Hornet has a distinct voice and personality, which dictates the narrative flow of any expansion.
On the topic of communication, which has historically been a point of contention for the fanbase, Pellen suggested that the studio would be more vocal moving forward. He stated that the silence was simply a result of having nothing concrete to announce, but with multiple projects now in the works, the cadence of updates is expected to improve. However, regarding specific feature requests, Gibson confirmed that a “New Game Plus” mode has not been discussed internally, so don't expect it anytime soon.
