Hollow Knight: Silksong

 
After years of waiting, the sequel to one of the most beloved indies of all time is finally on the horizon. Hollow Knight: Silksong isn’t just more of the same; it’s a whole new beast. Team Cherry is trading the silent, stoic Knight for the lethal grace of Hornet, the princess-protector of Hallownest. Prepare for a kingdom that’s bigger, faster, and woven with deadly secrets.
Welcome to Pharloom: A Land of Silk and Song
Captured and dragged to the unfamiliar land of Pharloom, Hornet must ascend from the kingdom’s depths to a shining citadel at its peak. This journey introduces a completely new world, one that feels more vibrant and alive than Hallownest. You’ll explore coral forests, gilded cities, and mossy grottos, all haunted by a mysterious power.
The gameplay is where Silksong truly carves its own identity. Hornet is a warrior, not a vessel. She’s faster, more acrobatic, and armed with a needle that demands precision. Her moveset is fluid and aggressive. Instead of collecting Soul, she gathers silk to Bind her wounds in a flash—a high-risk, high-reward heal that can be done mid-air. You’ll also craft an arsenal of tools, traps, and weapons to hunt the 165+ new enemies that stand in your way.
A Deeper, More Complex Adventure
Silksong expands on the original’s formula in every way. The world is vast, with over 100 different benches to rest at. A formal quest system helps you track tasks from the many NPCs you’ll meet, categorized into Hunts, Grand Hunts, and more. Even Hornet herself is a change of pace; unlike the Knight, she talks, adding a new layer of narrative depth to your journey. Upon defeat, she leaves a cocoon full of silk, creating a tactical choice: do you break it open for a quick heal or save it for a critical moment?
