It's incredible to think I'm writing this article in a swamped press area in Cologne, Germany, but I just had the opportunity to become one of the first people at Gamescom to play Hollow Knight: Silksong. It was only for a short 30-minute window, but I feel inclined to share my thoughts.
Upon rushing to the screen to dodge the queues that were coming my way, I steadied myself. I picked up the controller to finally get my first hands-on with the title for many, many years. And after watching a small opening cutscene and getting to play as Hornet for the first time, I was immediately hooked.
