Fans of Hollow Knight are once again being teased with hints about the long-awaited Silksong. This time, the spark for speculation came from the peculiar behavior of developer William Pellen, who goes by the handle @everydruidwaswr on X (formerly Twitter).

Yesterday, on the same day as the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement, Pellen did three odd things: he changed his profile name to "little bomey," updated his avatar to a photo of a chocolate cake, and posted a cryptic message: "Something big is coming. Keep your eyes closed tomorrow."

The gaming community found this highly suspicious. Upon investigation, they uncovered several curious connections:

  • The photo of the chocolate cake comes from a recipe published on April 2, 2024;
  • "Eyes Closed" is a song by Imagine Dragons that was also teased on April 2, 2024;
  • "Little bomey" could be a reference to Napoleon Bonaparte, who married Marie Louise of Austria on April 2, 1810.

Why does April 2 keep coming up? Yesterday, Nintendo also announced a Direct presentation scheduled for that exact date. The event will showcase several upcoming games, and fans are fervently hoping that one of them will be the long-awaited Hollow Knight: Silksong.
