Going hands on with Silksong for the first time is oddly nerve-wracking. After six years of anticipation, hype, and desperate occult rituals, the question is: can it possibly live up to expectations?
What ends up surprising me most, then, is how much the game puts me at ease. From the first moment I take control of Hornet, it's like slipping on my favourite old pair of shoes. Six years? No, I'm back in Hollow Knight's world like no time has passed.
