Microsoft Rewards Possibly Teasing A Major Hollow Knight: Silksong Reveal

We may soon receive a new prominent Hollow Knight: Silksong reveal, as hinted at by a Microsoft Rewards listing on the website. Many users of the favored initiative began seeing a weird new activity directly referencing the upcoming and highly awaited Metroidvania sequel. The listing was linking to a search for the game, implying that the page went up way earlier on the Microsoft Rewards section than it was supposed to.

For instance, one user on the official Hollow Knight: Silksong subreddit was quick to witness the new addition to the Microsoft Rewards earn section. Other users in the comment section and other Reddit forums across the fandom also affirmed the new link. The description for the title read, “The story continues… Dive into new adventures with this metroidvania hit,” with a link to a search for the game.

It is unclear whether the listing linking to a search for Hollow Knight: Silksong has been removed now or if it is region locked for certain countries. Regardless, it could mean a variety of things; the biggest theory suggests that Microsoft is possibly preparing the store page for the awaited hearty venture. The game is slated to release before the second week of June ends, which appears to support the following fables in the community.

The giant conglomerate may also unveil an actual release date for the game since the official release window is slating closer by the day. Yet, there have been no signs of an official announcement or recent gameplay for the entry. From the official info, the upcoming fast-paced, action-packed platformer was revealed during the Xbox Bethesda event a year ago. Xbox then officially articulated that the entry would release in the next 12 months.

To satiate the fans, the official Xbox Twitter handle also went out of its way and confirmed that Hollow Knight: Silksong is planned to release before June 12, 2023. Regardless, only two months of waiting remains for the anticipated fans at the time of writing, and an official release date could finally be underway. 

That's exactly what we said.

The brewing fable also may prove to be Microsoft’s way of promoting Hollow Knight: Silksong for Xbox Game Pass ahead of time. Nevertheless, we suggest taking the overflowing rumors with a grain of salt, as it may have just been a happy accident by Microsoft. It is best to wait until an official release date arrives for the sequel to the Metroidvania hit. 

Hollow Knight: Silksong will let us explore the depths of a vast, haunted kingdom filled to the brim with weird anomalies and bugs. The game will let us engage in lethal acrobatic action and build powerful tools to deal with the thriving world of Silksong. The reveal trailer footage showed us the chronicles of our protagonist, Hornet, as she delved straight into the action by dashing right through the enemies in a blink.

The enticing single-player entry is set to release on Linux, macOS, Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X and Series S. Moreover, it will also appear on the Xbox Game Pass subscription service on day one.
