Hollow Knight: Silksong

Hands-on with Hollow Knight: Silksong at Gamescom 2025 reveals a faster, prettier, and harder, yet familiar sequel.

Introduction

Hollow Knight: Silksong is the upcoming sequel to the acclaimed Hollow Knight, developed by Team Cherry. Players once again take control of Hornet in a new kingdom. Key features include:

  • Faster Combat: Hornet is more agile than the Knight, with quicker moves and diagonal strikes.
  • New Healing System: Binding replaces focus healing, requiring a full strand of thread before healing is possible.
  • Enhanced Visuals: The game features gorgeously verdant environments with detailed parallax effects.
  • Challenging Enemies: Expect nimbler and more brutal enemies, demanding precise timing and strategy.
  • Familiar Gameplay: Preserves the tight controls and pin-sharp feedback of the original Hollow Knight.
