A New Kingdom Awaits
Hollow Knight: Silksong takes players beyond Hallownest and into the fallen insect kingdom of Pharloom. Filled with moss-covered caverns, glittering cities, and mist-shrouded moors, the kingdom presents a vast new world to discover as players ascend toward the shining citadel that towers above the land.
Players once again take part in fast-paced platforming and combat, this time controlling Hornet as she battles through a dangerous realm filled with deadly enemies and ancient mysteries.
Combat has been expanded with a huge range of acrobatic moves, allowing players to dart between enemies while unleashing swift and stylish attacks. Along the way, Hornet can craft powerful tools, weapons, traps, and mechanisms that aid both exploration and battle.
More Enemies, More Bosses, More Challenges
The sequel significantly raises the stakes with more than 200 enemies to encounter and over 40 legendary boss battles. Players will face everything from monstrous beasts and ruthless hunters to fallen kings and heroic warriors, each requiring skill and precision to overcome.
For those seeking an even greater challenge, the game also includes Steel Soul mode, offering a tougher experience once the main adventure has been conquered.
A Stunning Soundtrack
Award-winning composer Christopher Larkin returns to score the adventure, delivering an orchestral soundtrack filled with haunting melodies, sweeping strings, and powerful boss themes that help bring Pharloom to life.
Enhanced on Nintendo Switch 2
The Nintendo Switch 2 version includes several platform-specific improvements, such as higher-resolution visuals, improved frame rates, and additional graphical effects. Fangamer has also confirmed that the Nintendo Switch 2 cartridge will be playable on the original Nintendo Switch.
