Hornet made a strong appearance at PGX.

Cosplayer BunnieHollie brought Hornet from Hollow Knight: Silksong to life with a bold mask, red cape, and a pose captured beautifully by Compass Rose Photography. The creativity in the cosplay community is always one of the best parts of Expo weekend, and this one was a great example of that.

With Jeff Taft on guitar and Leona Hayward on bass, they tore through one of their longest sets to date right on the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo stage.

Loud, heavy, and exactly the kind of energy that makes Expo weekend hit different.
