"Silk Song" is released and crowdfunded by veteran players lamenting the disappearing version - Official response
Today (September 4), "Hollow Knight: Silksong" will be officially released. The popularity that has been waiting for us for many years is very high. Many XGP friends in the New Zealand time zone have already played it. Today, after the official distributed the game key to the players who participated in crowdfunding support, some players posted a post to lament that the Wii U version on the support project was cancelled and there was no news. Then the official responded to this.
Now look at the crowdfunding planning map officially released, not only the Wii U version, but also the PS VITA version. Almost ten years have passed since handheld and home machines that were vividly accused of the last era. However, the platforms that are officially released do not have these outdated old platforms.
The official responded that it was indeed planned to transplant to the Wii U platform at the beginning, but a statement of transfer to the Switch platform was announced in 2017. The specific reason was that the Wii U version encountered a development bottleneck, and the Wii U platform was abandoned considering that the game screen texture would cause deterioration, so the Wii U platform was abandoned.
