Silksong released! No, really. We checked. Twice.

It seems the digital ether is abuzz with the startling revelation that *Hollow Knight: Silksong* has, in fact, been available for some time. This news, much like the game itself, has been met with widespread incredulity, primarily because the majority of its purported player base continues to operate under the quaint delusion that the highly anticipated sequel remains locked in the deepest chasms of game development limbo.

Experts are now positing that the game's legendary difficulty extends beyond its intricate combat mechanics and into its very discoverability. One might argue that Team Cherry has masterfully crafted a title so profoundly challenging, players struggle to even locate the 'buy' button, mistaking it for another meticulously placed environmental hazard. Forget the punishing bosses of Elden Ring; *Silksong*'s true genius lies in requiring players to first *believe* in its existence before they can even contemplate dying repeatedly to its opening enemies. This groundbreaking approach to engagement certainly redefines "hardcore."
