2024's already been a big year for Metroidvania fans. Hardly a month in, we've already seen Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown launch and infuse the genre with killer momentum as we careen towards more surefire bangers like Animal Well, Tales of Kezera: Zau, Earthblade, and - yes - Hollow Knight: Silksong. Each one seems to have a distinct hook; Prince of Persia marries the precision platforming of Celeste with stylish combat, Animal Well is all about nonviolent puzzle-solving, and Tales of Kenzera: Zau promises a heartfelt story.
