Hollow Knight: Silksong Tops Steam Wishlist Again, But Is It Just Holding the Throne?
Alright, folks, we’re back at it again—talking about Hollow Knight: Silksong , the game that’s been at the top of every indie lover’s wishlist for years. And guess what? It’s once again the most wishlisted game on Steam. But after six years of waiting, the question lingers: Is this a sign of enduring hype, or is Silksong just keeping the seat warm for the next big release?

Here’s the deal—recently, another highly anticipated game, Inzoi , briefly claimed the top spot, only for Silksong to reclaim its throne. This means it’s currently ahead of giants like Valve’s Deadlock and Elden Ring: Nightreign , which is no small feat. According to SteamDB, Silksong has racked up over 324,000 followers, a testament to just how many players are eagerly awaiting its release.
But let’s take a step back. The game was originally announced in 2019, and back then, it felt like a sure thing—something that would be in our hands soon. Now, in 2025, we’re still in the dark, waiting for Team Cherry to drop any real updates. It’s been a long, quiet vigil, and yet, the game remains a fixture at the top of wishlists.
So, what does this mean? Is Silksong still one of the most anticipated games of our time, or is it simply a byproduct of time itself? Many players add games to their Steam wishlist and forget about them. Maybe some of those 324,000 followers have moved on, playing other titles while Silksong gathers digital dust in their lists. After all, it’s easy to rack up wishlists when players never bother to clean them out.
That’s not to say Silksong isn’t still beloved. It was in the top six most wishlisted games back in 2021, competing with titles like New World and Dying Light 2 . But as years go by without substantial news, some fans may be losing faith, while others remain hopeful. It’s become a meme at this point—every new gaming showcase sparks speculation that this will be the time Silksong finally gets a release date. And yet, here we are, still waiting.
At this point, Silksong 's position at the top of the wishlist leaderboard might be more about endurance than excitement. When (or if) it finally launches, it’s bound to be a massive event. But until then, it remains a fascinating quirk in the gaming world—a long-anticipated title sitting on a digital throne, waiting for its moment to arrive. Maybe today’s the day Team Cherry breaks their silence. Maybe not. Either way, the Silksong faithful remain, watching, waiting, hoping.
