Everything we know about Hollow Knight: Silksong | Digital Trends

The original Hollow Knight was first released in 2017 and was immediately recognized as one of the most impressive entries in the Metroidvania genre, indie or not. The immaculate hand-drawn art style made even the dank, drab world full of bugs known as Hollownest such an endearing place to explore. Combined with the tight platforming controls, light souls-like elements, satisfying upgrades, and cryptic story, Hollow Knight soared to the top of many critics’ and players’ favorite games lists.

Platforms At least for the time being, Hollow Knight: Silksong is only officially announced as coming to the Nintendo Switch, and PC, and will be a day one addition on Xbox Game Pass. However, the original Hollow Knight was initially only a PC game, later coming to Switch, and then finally hitting the PS4 and Xbox One consoles, so Silksong may have a staggered release as well. That all depends on what, if any, deal Team Cherry has with Nintendo and Microsoft on being a console exclusive.

Hollow Knight: Silksong showed up in a surprising place with a trailer at the Xbox and Bethesda Showcase in 2022. Not only was this the first time we saw the game advertised as coming to another platform besides Switch and PC, but it was also revealed to be coming to Game Pass the day it launches. Unfortunately, this trailer didn’t give any indication of when that day would be. Instead, we were simply treated to more gameplay to look forward to.

We also have confirmation of a Silk Soul mode that unlocks after completing the game for the first time. The original Hollow Knight had a Steel Soul mode that makes death permanent and makes a few NPC changes. Odds are Silk Soul mode will offer a similar level of challenge, but the exact details of what this mode will do, beyond “test your skills in an all-new mode that spins the game into a unique, challenging experience,” are unknown.
