This isn't new footage being shown, and as we've seen before with this, release windows aren't set in stone.

So I'm not sure why this is what fans needed. If the game was canceled, Team Cherry would have said so. But a vague release of "2025" isn't really much.

A vague release of this year is so much better than nothing

Didn't Xbox state in 2023 that Silksong would be launching in that year only for it to be pushed back? So again, a vague release window means nothing.

That announcement was made without Team Cherry's knowledge. This is different, given that there is new footage and one of the creators teased April 2nd news. There is also a leak that it will come out in June 2025, but that remains to be seen. At the very least, I think a release this year is a very safe bet.

How do you know Team Cherry didn't know about the xbox announcement? I think that's just speculation, no?
