Hollow Knight: Silksong is Rumored for the Xbox Games Showcase
Not only that, butHollow Knight: Silksongis a day one Xbox Game Pass game. Xbox likes to use these showcases to show off day one Game Pass titles, and withSilksongallegedly launching in 2025, it would honestly be more surprising if it skipped the show.

IfHollow Knight: Silksongdeveloper Team Cherrycan meet the planned 2025 release date for the game, then one has to imagine that information on the highly-anticipated Metroidvania will start coming at a faster rate.
