You nailed it, Hollow Knight is our last guest! The Knight is a bit too shy to show his face. However he was still nice enough to let us use his weapon! And how cool is it to pogo on enemies?

In a video that was shared on the Motion Twin Twitter account, it shows a book that “tell the tales of heroes from other worlds. Some of its cryptic sentences seem to be providing clues”.
