- The cake image seems to originate from a recipe dated April 2.
The latest theory about Hollow Knight: Silksong suggests that news on the long-awaited Metroidvania game will come during the April 2, 2025 Nintendo Direct event.

Since Hollow Knight: Silksong‘s reveal trailer, there hasn’t been a ton of new information on the game. It’s been confirmed that Hollow Knight: Silksong is a day one Xbox Game Pass game and that it’s coming to PlayStation consoles as well as PC, Xbox, and Switch, but otherwise, details on the project have been few and far between. Every big gaming event comes and goes with Hollow Knight fans anticipating news on Silksong, only to be left disappointed.

What to Expect From Hollow Knight: Silksong in 2025
There may not be much for fans to expect from Hollow Knight: Silksong in 2025 but there’s still ample time for Team Cherry to deliver some good news.
It’s entirely possible that the pattern will continue in 2025, but the latest fan theory suggests that there may finally be light at the end of the tunnel. Reddit users noticed that Hollow Knight: Silksong developer William Pellen recently changed his Twitter handle to everydruidwaswr, his name to “little bomey,” and his profile picture to an image of a chocolate cake, while teasing the Switch 2 reveal the day before it happened. Reddit users have discovered that the image of the chocolate cake comes from a recipe that was published on April 2, 2024. As it so happens, the big Switch 2 Nintendo Direct is set to air that day, causing fans to theorize that Hollow Knight: Silksong will be featured during the presentation.
Hollow Knight: Silksong Conspiracy Theory Points to April 2
Hollow Knight fans are still trying to figure out what exactly the changes to Pellen’s Twitter handle might mean, but in the meantime, many seem confident that Hollow Knight: Silksong will be shown during the Switch 2 Nintendo Direct on April 2. Now, it’s entirely possible that this was all just a tease for the Switch 2 reveal and has nothing to do with Hollow Knight: Silksong, though that would admittedly be pretty odd.
Still, it’s best fans don’t get their hopes up. Hollow Knight: Silksong has been missing in action at so many Nintendo Directs and other gaming events that it’s better to go in with no expectations and be pleasantly surprised if it shows up instead of sad if it’s a no-show yet again. As far as the Nintendo Direct goes, we’re not sure exactly what’s going to be shown, but many are assuming that the Switch 2 price, release date, and launch games will be featured.
