Voidwrought looks like another great one for Hollow Knight fans

Set in a hand-drawn world of cosmic horrors, the upcoming 2D action-platformer metroidvania, Voidwrought looks like a real gem. Especially so if you're a Hollow Knight fan waiting on Hollow Knight: Silksong. Announced for release on October 24th, this one should work nicely with Valve's Proton on Linux / Steam Deck.

You may get tired of "hey this game looks like this game!" but…this is really clearly inspired by Hollow Knight, and we've seen a few more like it recently too. And that's a good thing! Voidwrought looks great in its own right. The visuals are fab, the setting sounds good and the combat looks delicious.
