Hollow Knight was one of the unexpected successes of 2017. The cutesy, soulslike, Metroidvania game went from a sleeper to hit to a desirable name in the blink of an eye. But, it’s been nearly five years since the first game, and we have all the latest info on Hollow Knight: Silksong.
The original Demon’s Souls has spawned countless imitations and clones as developers seek to capture its magic formula. One game that took the mold and shaped it differently was Hollow Knight. Splicing the classic platforming and action of Metroidvania games together with the brutal difficulty of Souls games, Team Cherry created something special.
It was a critically, well-received success, and Silksong was announced on February 14, 2019. However, not too much else has been revealed about the game since then. We’ve compiled all the available information and put together a handy guide showcasing all we know about Hollow Knight: Silksong.
