New titles are revealed, existing games are shown new content, and there's usually something to excite everyone at a given display of the gaming industry's immediate future.

In a forum post, she asked whether there were any fans of indie games.

This led fans to speculate whether it will appear at a new showcase. Some are holding out hope that the game currently without a release date will show itself off soon, while others think that an Indie World showcase would be too small of an event for Hollow Knight: Silksong now, and
