EDGE magazine recently caught up with Team Cherry, the developers behind the critically acclaimed Switch title Hollow Knight. Speaking to the game’s co-directors Ari Gibson and William Pellen the two discussed what’s next after the long-awaited Hollow Knight: Silk Song which still doesn’t have a firm release date. Gibson was asked by the publication if the team will be taking a break after Silksong. Here’s what was said:
“Well, we have that non-Hollow Knight game that is due to be made. It’s been left to lapse, which is just fine. But I think we’re both excited to jump into that.
They’re just documents that get expanded as each new idea comes in. So they’re good in a way, because once the document exists, every month or few months, it gets slowly added to in the background.
Making a game that’s not Hollow Knight, it’s not that different: they’re just, like, big worlds that we can run around in, and meet characters, and go on adventures. The theme might change slightly in that you don’t have a sword or needle any more. But beyond that it’s pretty much the same experience. Maybe the characters won’t have as many horns.”
I’m pretty sure if they put as much effort into it as they have the hollow knight games it’ll be another hit indie title
Can’t get the magazine anywhere in hard copy.can anyone help.
“What’s next after Hollow Knight?” Hollow Knight 2!!!
What’s next? I’d just be happy if this game ever got released! Can’t wait, but it seems to be taking forever!
