3D origami platformer Hirogami refuses to fold! Still launching September 3rd amidst other indie game delays
Upcoming release from Bandai Namco Studios Singapore and Kakehashi Games will launch for PC and PlayStation 5 on September 3rd, despite [gestures at everything]
Tokyo, Japan – August 27, 2025 – Bandai Namco Studios Singapore and publishers Kakehashi Games today announced nothing in particular, confirming that origami-inspired action-adventure platformer Hirogami will maintain its September 3rd launch date for PC and PlayStation 5 as announced back in June.
After originally announcing September 3rd as their launch date in June’s PlayStation State of Play showcase, Hirogami has also been featured in the Future Games Show Summer Showcase and recently returned from worldwide gaming expo, Gamescom. Following the long-awaited release date announcement for metroidvania Hollow Knight: Silksong from Team Cherry, many studios have announced launch delays out of the September window, but Hirogami won’t fold.
“Today we’re excited to announce nothing at all,” said Kakehashi Games’ Worldwide Publishing Director, Matt Sakuraoka-Gilman. “We have nothing but love, admiration and best wishes for our friends at Team Cherry. And we have respect and understanding for every developer getting out of Silksong’s way. But Hirogami is ready to launch, our community is ready to play it, and we can’t wait to share it with the world!”
Hirogami will launch as planned on September 3rd, 2025 for PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store) and PlayStation 5.
(And congratulations to Team Cherry on the surprise launch of Hollow Knight: Silksong!)
