Silksong Hints at Deadpool Crossover

Marvel's Deadpool VR world premiere at Summer Game Fest 2025 featured a surprising shout-out to Hollow Knight: Silksong. Discover Team Cherry's reaction and what this means for the highly anticipated sequel.

A Surprising Deadpool VR Mention for Silksong

Silksong's Absence from Summer Game Fest 2025

Hollow Knight: Silksong, the eagerly awaited sequel from Team Cherry, was a major topic of conversation at Summer Game Fest 2025. Fans hoped for new reveals after recent rumors and a Steam package update. However, the only reference came from an unexpected source: the world premiere trailer for Marvel's Deadpool VR.

During the showcase, host Geoff Keighley read a note from Deadpool himself. The message concluded with a cheeky request: "Do me a favor and skip that Silksong trailer so you can check out my groundbreaking VR adventure that's going to shake up the industry."

The Silksong community responded with a mix of amusement and disappointment in the days that followed. Some fans shared humorous memes about the event, while others expressed genuine frustration, dubbing it "The Deadpool Incident" and blaming it for the lack of a new trailer.

Marvel's Deadpool VR is scheduled for an exclusive launch on Meta Quest 3 and 3S in late 2025. For a full rundown of announcements and games featured at Summer Game Fest 2025, check out our complete coverage.
