Hollow Knight: Silksong is set to cost 19.99 in the US, 19.99 in Europe, and 2300 yen in Japan, according to official info from Team Cherry shared via major gaming press in late 2025.

How Much Will Silksong Cost?

Official Price Point

Team Cherry has confirmed that Silksong will launch at a budget-friendly mid-tier indie price rather than a full-priced AAA tag.

Here’s the key info:

  • United States: 19.99 USD.
  • Europe: 19.99 EUR.
  • Japan: 2300 JPY.

This confirmation came after earlier rumors from retailer listings (like GameStop at 19.99) that fans were debating heavily on forums and social media.

Why The Price Surprised People

For years, community speculation had Silksong anywhere from 25–40 (or even 60) because:

  • Hollow Knight itself was seen as underpriced at around 15 for the amount of content it offered.
  • Silksong has been marketed as a large, ambitious follow-up with many bosses and substantial scope, which usually pushes prices higher in the indie space.
  • Fans expected Team Cherry to “correct” that undervaluation with a higher sequel price, especially after years of hype.

You can see this sentiment in forum discussions where players openly say 30–40 would feel fair and that 19.99 is “surprisingly affordable” or “a bargain.”

Community & Trending Reactions

Once the 19.99 figure solidified, reactions became a mini-trending topic across gaming YouTube, Reddit, and X:

  • Some videos and posts highlight that people are “freaking out” in a positive way that such a long-awaited game is only 19.99.
  • Threads on r/PS5 and r/gaming feature players saying they expected 40–60 and are now planning day-one purchases, sometimes on multiple platforms, because the perceived value is so high.
  • A recurring theme: many players feel like they’re “underpaying” again, similar to how Hollow Knight’s price looked in retrospect after its success.

In other words, the price itself has become part of the story and marketing buzz around Silksong.

Quick FAQ

Is 19.99 confirmed or still a rumor?
It’s no longer just a retailer leak; Team Cherry has confirmed that standard price point (with regional equivalents).

Will the price be the same on all platforms?
Major platforms (PC and consoles like Switch) are listing it at the same 19.99 base price in their respective currencies, so you can safely expect that as the standard digital price.
