Hollow Knight: Silksong. fourth chorus. X35 Earthwalker

Hollow Knight: Silksong is a metroidvania style action adventure game developed and published by ‘Team Cherry‘. Hollow Knight: Silksong came out the 4th of September 2025 on the Xbox Series X/S & Xbox Game Pass, Nintendo Switch 1 & 2, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker has dived into Hollow Knight: Silksong and has a lot to say already. This game is excellent and has more silk for us to encounter. Let’s talk about this.

Hollow Knight: Silksong right off the rip is so far an excellent game. So much has happened already and this game doesn’t show mercy. Yes Hollow Knight: Silksong is a hard game. Don’t listen to fake aura fools who say games like this isn’t hard. It’s a hard game. It’s obvious but players are controlling Hornet. A character those who played Hollow Knight would know. She is basically attempting a climb. Reach the peak and demand some answers. Already X35 Earthwalker likes Hornet as a character. She is polite, comes off as mature and easy to get along with. Calling people sir and speaking with respect. She’s also dangerous and powerful. Liking Hornet so far.

The enemies work together in terms of design to ruin your day. They are placed to be annoying and can drain your life real fast. There’s even bigger enemies who hit you for two points of damage. Now of course when you can increase your health it will be less of a problem. The average player will have a tough time. Now remember when we said that Hollow Knight: Silksong is a metroidvania type game. These games have their patterns. You start off with no powers and abilities. you lost them all somehow or can’t use them. She off course must find abilities to get stronger and reach places they couldn’t reach before.

Now the game has overalled been a good treat. We like metroidvania games and most are very good. The biggest issue so far with Hollow Knight: Silksong is the bosses. There was one boss in particular who was a bad boss and not fun to fight. Its issue was that it had too much health. The bosses before and after weren’t a problem. This shows that a few things lacked good design. Besides that boss things are very good and challenging. There’s one quite scary dark boss that’s like a bat even had a cool feature. If you meet and talk with a certain character that character can join you in the fight against the horrible monster. That was cool and reminded us of instances in Elden Ring. This was cool to see.

The whole crest system is a welcome thing. It changes up how you attack, your attack rate, downwards attack and what tools you can equip. We advise players to try them all out. You could get surprised. X35 ended up switching his crest and staying with it for a good while. Use those memory lockets to unlock slots for additional tools. This allows players to actually create a build of sorts and even switch up depending on the boss or threats you are facing. The down attack does matter as some are harder to control. So when you want to bounce off the red flowers. There’s even a challenge area based on that. There’s many crests. So experiment and give things a chance. Search the world and get what you can.

Overall Hollow Knight: Silksong is an excellent game without question… but yes, Hollow Knight: Silksong is definitely overrated. People acting like it’s the greatest game ever and better than everything before. Not close. Yes, it is excellent and a good time for sure. Right now the game is feeling like a solid 9/10 right now. Very few errors. Respect the game for sure but calm down. We are looking forward to more of what Hollow Knight: Silksong has to offer… whether silky or not. We know it’s going to be great. Unlike the first Hollow Knight game, the story is sounding actually interesting. Talking to the pilgrims, the singing characters and different locations and trials and faith is so cool. X35 Earthwalker will conquer this game too. Now Hollow Knight: Silksong may have singing bugs but they don’t sing as good as… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Xbox is currently number 1. Ahead of both Nintendo and way ahead of PlayStation who has been having a horrible year so far. Remember Concord. Not only is Xbox number 1 but it’s stayed strong throughout the whole year. X35 Earthwalker believes that current Xbox is the strongest Xbox has ever been. We are in November and the year 2024 is soon over. Xbox is finishing the year incredibly strong as well. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker Xbox Game Pass

Xbox Game Pass is best subscription service in all of gaming and it takes Xbox to a higher level. Others like PlayStation tried to copy this subscription service with their own but it’s clearly inferior. X35 Earthwalker compared them and more on the podcast channel. Xbox Game Pass creates more gaming opportunities to both gamers and game developers. Not only that it’s also incredibly profitable making Xbox loads of money. Xbox Game Pass alone makes the rest of this year more than solid for Xbox gamers.  

In November and December Xbox gamers can expect Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl and Indian Jones and the Great Circle.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024:

X35 Earthwalker Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is a simulation game being developed by ‘Asobo’ an published by ‘Xbox Game Studios’. The best simulation game of all time according to many. Even the Xbox tax fuelled bums at ign somewhat agree as they gave Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 a 10/10 and said, “the most incredible experience I ever had on a computer”. That’s crazy as “on a computer” means movies, gaming, porn, anime etc. So yeah this game has to be next level crazy good. We know Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is loaded as there’s also content from other worlds like Dune. The Dune expansion brings in the House Atreides Ornithopter. So yeah, fly away.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl:

X35 Earthwalker S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl is a first person shooter game being developed and published by ‘GSC Game World’. This game has got millions of players excited. Reviewers (who are all inferior to X35 Earthwalker) who has early access gameplay have so far all said positive stuff about this game. Not just positive but overwhelmingly positive. It’s kind of crazy. Maybe they all drank the same water. Regardless all the evidence points to this game being top tier. Some even saying game of the year true contender. There’s also going to be some horror as well which certainly makes the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl world more interesting. Lots to do and lots to survive from… hopefully.

Indian Jones and the Great Circle: 

X35 Earthwalker Indian Jones and the Great Circle

Indian Jones and the Great Circle is the next major Indiana Jones adventure. First person, single player adventure game developed by ‘Machinegames’ and published by ‘Bethesda’ softworks. Punching dudes in the face. Using a whip to grab and yank enemies. sliding into places and making sure to not forget your hat. Yes Indian Jones and the Great Circle is set between Raiders of the lost ark and last crusade. Watch out for those germans. They got the standard old school German bad guy package going on. Watch out for the big guy.

X35 Earthwalker Xbox Game Pass games

Not only this but Xbox has been dropping more banner games on the Xbox Game Pass. Recently Spyro Reignited dropped and players have been loving it. Metal Slug Tactics. Of course the big one Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and more. With this stuff it’s easy to see why Xbox is number one. Xbox is ending the year more than solid. Even better is the major line up of games coming in 2025. The goodness doesn’t stop. Xbox players have tons to look forward to. X35 Earthwalker certainly believes so. Now Xbox may have have the best games and subscription service but it’s not better than… the ‘Earth Walk!’

X35 Earthwalker Recommended games on Xbox

X35 Earthwalker has already proved years ago and even recently that Xbox has many games. Too many games right now. The biggest W is clearly the Xbox Game Pass. Many games have been played thanks to this Xbox feature. Today we just wanted to go over quickly some Xbox Game Pass games that we think you should play. just to be clear, there are many good games on the Xbox Game Pass but we will just mention some. Let’s take a look.

The first game is off course Halo Infinite. What else could we start with? Nothing else. Halo Infinite has a fantastic campaign. It’s an excellent story, epic boss battles, open explorable world, lots of information and effective vehicles. This campaign has lots of gameplay time and has a completely different style fro all previous Halo Games. Multiplayer is good but definitely has it’s issues. Big team battle is fun and ranked mode allows you disable cross platform. Halo Infinite is only going to get better and better as new things are added, actual customisations and off course the Forge mode. There’s lots of room for big things.

Aliens: FireTeam Elite is the next. This game is excellent for friends and family to play. Aliens: FireTeam Elite is all about team work. If you don’t work together, you will die! Three soldiers who you can customise will face off against HORDES of aliens on big missions. Iconic weapons like the Smart gun and Pulse rifle are here and do big damage. There’s multiple character classes with different functions except one that sucks. You can change your class in between missions anytime. Level up systems for the weapons, numerous attachments for guns and a variety of enemies including big powerful enemies who have armour and lots of health and will charge you down. Lots of action here.

Next is Scarlet Nexus. This game is excellent. There’s so much to say about this game. The best thing just might be the characters. they are so different, have numerous interactions that lead to lots of entertainment. The combat system is excellent but the lack of health is an issue. You can get creative as there’s so many powers you have access to thanks to the SAS (if you play the game then you know). The game is easy to understand, set in a very different world with mystery, betrayal, questions, very difficult fights and quite a bit of turns. Scarlet Nexus has been a real big treat and definitely having fun playing it.

Doom (the first one) is definitely fun even to this day. Just a straight up first person shooter. A very different experience to what’s released nowadays. The best part is actually the multiplayer. Yep, play through the whole game but with friends and family. X35 Earthwalker literally had a full squad of four players and they all attacked a cyber demon boss with pistols until it died. That was so silly. The game allows you to save whenever you want and you have a lot of liberty in Ultimate Doom, even with the levels. Just run around, sprinting with weapons and killing everything.

Tetris Effect: Connected is one of the best games ever made. No joke. This game is fantastic. It’s straight up Tetris with some additional stuff off course. The zone mechanic is awesome and can really save your life at times. The visuals are top tier for sure. It’s one of the best looking games ever. It’s particle and special effects are top tier. It’s music and sounds are top tier. Many locations, multiple game modes, special events, competitive play and multiplayer which includes a co-op mode. This game can be played with such a chill mode with low speed Tetrominos and endless modes while enjoying the music and visuals. Don’t underestimate Tetris Effect: Connected just because it’s a Tetris game. Definitely better than anything the PS5 currently has.

The Riftbreaker went above our expectations. It’s not only better but bigger too. Much bigger. The Riftbreaker isn’t a 1 hour game. It’s a huge adventure. You are transported to a far planet from earth and you need to build a base, harvest materials for building and defences to stay alive. You also have to go out and explore, fight dangerous flauna and creatures. There’s so much things to build, options and you can build anywhere. There’s aliens invading, sort of easy to die but honestly there’s so much going on. This game The Riftbreaker will truly take you by surprise. The graphics are excellent. The details are fantastic and there’s scanning to learn about creatures and gain familiarity. With each scan, we naturally think of Metroid Prime and the scanning. Try this game. 

Spelunky 2 is a real challenge. It’s a direct improvement over the first game. there’s more levels, more secrets, more enemies, more items, more traps, more instant kills, more characters, much more difficult and more fun. Spelunky 2 is just an excellent game. You can play with friends and family. There’s a competitive battle mode and then off course the main mode. There’s even an online option, so you can play with others. You should definitely try Spelunky 2.

Raji: An Ancient Epic is a beautiful game. This game is very good too. If you like a visual delight with an adventure that’s not difficult and chill then Raji: An Ancient Epic is for you. We like the whole cultural and mythology elements too. You get learn interesting stuff while you have a good time. Basically the biggest god of the big three of hinduism did a seriously dumb move and gave a demon eternal life and a god slaying weapon… what could go wrong? The demon causes havoc, got many killed and caused your brother to get kidnapped. You are the big sister and you want to save your brother, which means fighting evil. Some of the environments reminds us of Abe’s oddysee and exodus, the whole odd world thing. Desert, full forest and a most beautiful city.

Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries is a completely different gaming experience. You control large powerful mechs and you engage in mech on mech violence on large scale battles too. There’s aircrafts, there’s tanks and smaller mechs that support or go against you. A few missions types but each of the mechs have different weight, weapon slots, armour, movement speed and more. In Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries, there’s room for tactical fighting as you can target specific parts of kill mechs faster, disable weapons and cripple their movement. Hire pilots to control other mechs you own so you can have a team move with you on the field. Difficulty balancing is an issue though.

Gears Tactics is the last one for now. If you enjoyed XCOM 2 then you’ll enjoy Gears Tactics. Of course your cog soldiers aren’t as strong or good as the XCOM soldiers who can have alien tech rocket launchers that pass through all things. The principles are the same. Move soldiers around, get into cover, flank enemies for critical chance and clearer shots. Level up soldiers to get new abilities and create combos with your soldiers. Gears of War is a cover shooter game so the XCOM style is perfect for Gears of War. We like the brand new locusts and the variety off enemies brought in. There’s big boss fights too. Like fighting a Brumack and corpser.

Remember, this isn’t all of them. There’s many more. We just wanted to mention some and keep it short. There’s basically 100 games on Xbox Game Pass. We at X35 Earthwalker have played many and can confirm that Xbox Game Pass is the best thing in gaming. Now There may be many good games but none of them can compete with… the ‘Earth Walk!’
