On April 1st, the worst possible day for this to happen, a listing for Hollow Knight Silksong appeared on Xbox.com. Though listing doesn't provide any clarity on when the game is going to be released, it does confirm it will be on Game Pass on day one and is optimized for Xbox Series X|S. This is both a good sign, as it's a sign of something, but also a cruel reminder that it has been five years since the game was announced.

This got us thinking about some of the other games that are still MIA and, at a time when releases have slowed down a bit, it's a good opportunity to check in on them. From Metroid Prime 4 to Good Beyond Evil 2, here are some of the games we're still waiting to play.

Spot On is GameSpot's weekly news show in which managing editor Tamoor Hussain and senior producer Lucy James talk about the latest game news. Given the massive video game industry's highly dynamic and never-ending news cycle, there's always something to talk about. Unlike most news shows, Spot On will dive deep into a single topic instead of recapping all the news. Spot On airs each Friday.
