Originally, Hornet was planned as a second playable character to be included in a downloadable content (DLC) pack for Hollow Knight, funded as a stretch goal in the game's Kickstarter campaign.

Since announcement, per GameSpot, "updates have been sporadic and infrequent". Hollow Knight: Silksong was announced on 14 February 2019 in a trailer and with a developer diary video sharing more information about the game. Hornet is captured and taken to the unknown kingdom of Pharloom, which is said to be "haunted by Silk and Song", and must climb to the top to reach a shining citadel. It will feature more differences from the base game than "Steel Soul mode" did in Hollow Knight. Silksong will have an additional difficulty mode with permanent death called "Silk Soul mode", akin to the "Steel Soul mode" found in Hollow Knight. Team Cherry stated the game to be very large, featuring at least 165 new enemies and over 100 different benches in the game, while Hollow Knight only has 41 benches. The includes quest system divided into four categories: Gather, Wayfarer, Hunt, and Grand Hunt which are requested from the non-playable characters within the game. Sidequests will also be part of the game, and include a journal to keep track of them. Some changes are made from the original, such as how the character Hornet moves with a more acrobatic flair and how the character can heal themselves instantly. Hollow Knight: Silksong gameplay is similar to the previous Hollow Knight title, featuring 2D platforming and combat. It was announced on 14 February 2019, as a sequel to the 2017 game Hollow Knight.

Whenever it does appear, Hollow Knight: Silksong will be released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. Originally conceived as an expansion for the original Hollow Knight featuring that game’s antagonist/ally Hornet as the main character, Silksong has grown into a full-fledged sequel - and, it appears, quite an ambitious one. Silksong was first announced in 2019, but Team Cherry’s subsequent yearslong silence about its development, with the exception of that 2022 trailer, has turned desperate fans’ futile hopes for news from any and every platform-holder showcase into a kind of meme. A late 2023 release or slip into 2024 seem likely. Team Cherry’s refusal to commit to a release date for Silksong is probably just a sensible precaution, although the wording of the tweet does not suggest the game will be out soon. Griffin’s message effectively rules out any appearance by Silksong in the Xbox and Summer Game Fest showcases filling the hole left by this year’s canceled E3. We're excited by how the game is shaping up, and it's gotten quite big, so we want to take the time to make the game as good as we can. We had planned to release in the 1st half of 2023, but development is still continuing.

Hey gang, just a quick update about Silksong. Expect more details from us once we get closer to release.” “We’re excited by how the game is shaping up, and it’s gotten quite big, so we want to take the time to make the game as good as we can. “We had planned to release in the 1st half of 2023, but development is still continuing,” Griffin wrote. ( Silksong is hardly the only casualty from that showcase, which also featured Starfield, Forza Motorsport, and several other games which have been delayed into late 2023 and beyond.) But it made an appearance in trailer form during Microsoft’s June 2022 showcase, which purported to only feature games due out in the following 12 months.

In fact, Silksong has never had an official release date. Matthew Griffin from developer Team Cherry made the announcement on Twitter, saying simply that “development is still continuing,” and declining to give an expected release window for the game. Hollow Knight: Silksong, the long, long awaited sequel to the beloved 2017 indie hit Hollow Knight, will not make it out in the first half of 2023 (hardly surprising at this point, since we’re already well into May).
