Hollow Knight: Silksong

Hollow Knight: Silksong is an action-adventure game and sequel to Hollow Knight. Players take on the role of Hornet, who has been captured and brought to the unfamiliar kingdom of Pharloom. The game tasks players with ascending through the kingdom, battling enemies and solving mysteries tied to Hornet’s past as she makes her way to the citadel at the kingdom’s peak.

The game features exploration of varied environments including mossy grottos, gilded cities and misted moors. Combat is built around acrobatic movement and a range of moves, with players able to craft and upgrade tools, weapons and traps to use against enemies and to aid exploration. The game includes more than 200 enemy types and over 40 bosses to defeat throughout the adventure.

Additional features include Steel Soul mode, an optional difficulty setting that increases the challenge after the main game has been completed. The game’s score was composed by Christopher Larkin, who also composed the music for the original Hollow Knight.
