It's been a while since I've been able to write about Hollow Knight: Silksong cope and fears, but here we are once again. While the main game has been out for just over a year now, developer Team Cherry announced in December last year that the first official DLC — titled Sea of Sorrow — is set to release at some point in 2026.
We didn't get a release window or date, just the promise that Team Cherry would talk about the DLC closer to release. It's now been almost nine months since that announcement, and we've had several Nintendo Directs and PlayStation State of Plays, along with Summer Game Fest and Gamescom, yet the DLC is still nowhere to be seen.
However, it's Nintendo's latest Direct that appears to have broken quite a few Silksong fans, with fears starting to rise that Sea of Sorrow may not hit its intended 2026 release window after all. We know that Team Cherry takes a long time to make things, and the continued no-shows with no communication has fans pretty scared about a potential delay.
Could it be Sentinel, or could it just be an unrelated location?
