Is it really Silksong behind this? Though I enjoyed the first game I’ve not been desperately waiting for the sequel and I’ve never heard anyone talking about it IRL.
It was the most wishlisted game on steam ever, priced at a very reasonable $20, and it released today after a 6 year wait with almost no press before the last couple of weeks. All the press it did receive was about how the devs were just having a good time, which was insanely endearing.
It’s basically the ultimate indie darling at this point. I 100% believe it could crash all the platforms above.
It’s only $20? Hell yeah, add me to the server crush!
$20 before regional pricing. Some places can get it as low as $8, which I imagine only is only adding fuel to the fire.
Downtime across all those platforms started at pretty much exactly 10:00AM EST, which was Silksong’s release time. Not a coincidence.
