As Hollow Knight Silksong makes a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it reemergence for Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox reminds everyone the Metroidvania is still day one on Game Pass

For once, Hollow Knight: Silksong hopefuls can put away the clown makeup that accompanies every major video game showcase, as the Metroidvania actually did make a very brief appearance amid today’s Nintendo Switch 2 Direct news. While the reveal confirmed Silksong will be coming to Switch 2, Xbox wants you remember it’s still coming to Game Pass, too.

“REMINDER – Hollow Knight: Silksong arrives day one on Game Pass,” the official Xbox Game Pass account said on Twitter shortly after the Switch 2 presentation. The game was confirmed as a day one Game Pass launch way back at the Xbox Games Showcase in 2022, but that event also suggested that Silksong would be launching in less than 12 months. Clearly, plans change, but at least the Game Pass part is still true.
