A new Nendoroid figure for Hornet, from the highly anticipated game Hollow Knight: Silksong by Team Cherry, has recently been unveiled. Despite the multiple delays, Hollow Knight: Silksong remains one of the most highly anticipated games of the year. Fans have been eagerly awaiting its release, growing increasingly impatient with each passing month. However, the delays and the lack of footage at the recent Summer Game Fest have raised concerns about what may be happening behind the scenes at Team Cherry. Thankfully, for fans still holding out hope for an announcement in the near future, there is a new item available that sets the mood for the upcoming release of Silksong.
The primary protagonist of Hollow Knight: Silksong, Hornet, now has a new Nendoroid figure available. This figure excellently captures the character and offers the buyer various display options with customizable poses and parts such as the Needle weapon and a Cogfly. Priced at 6,400 Japanese Yen, it is approximately $44 USD.
Nendoroids, produced by the renowned Good Smile Company in Japan, are highly sought-after collectibles. The extensive line features a wide range of characters from video games and anime, including popular titles like Persona 5, Chainsaw Man, and Sonic the Hedgehog. Alongside the announcement of the Hornet figure, a figure for The Knight from the original Hollow Knight game was also revealed. Much like Hornet, this figure offers multiple customization options and accurately portrays The Knight from the Team Cherry title.
Recent updates on the progress of Hollow Knight: Silksong have been scarce. Despite several trailers and gameplay footage released last year, hopes of an early 2023 release window have dwindled due to a delay and lack of new teasers showcasing the current state of the game. Fans who anticipated playing and discussing the game in 2023 are now holding on to the possibility of a 2024 release. We eagerly await an informative update from Team Cherry.
Hollow Knight: Silksong is currently being developed for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
