Silksong's release date was announced within two weeks of its release, fans are calling titles that are delayed due to it, "Silksong'd."

Devolver Digital has committed to releasing a game on the same day as GTA VI, but it won't go toe-to-toe with Silksong.

Developer Talegames also made the decision to delay their own Metroidvania, Faeland, from leaving Early Access. “Our v1.0 launch was set for Sept 9, but with today’s Silksong news we’ve made the tough call to postpone. A new date is coming soon, thank you all for the love and support,” Talegames revealed on X.
