Sibling comments are giving good answers about Silksong in particular. But, a more general point to keep in mind is that gaming by revenue is an order of magnitude larger than movies. In that light it's a little strange that gaming news/events don't hit the general attention sphere more than they do.

Gaming might make more money, but celebrity news dominates the attention sphere.

It's also heavily weighted by gender, age, and socioeconomic status. Pop culture has wider, more even penetration.

Granted, there is waning generational attention being put into film.
