Hollow Knight: Silksong

What is Hollow Knight: Silksong?

Silksong is the second installment of the popular "Hollow Knight" from 2017. In this single-player adventure for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One, you play as Hornet, an unlikely but deadly heroine who must descend into the depths of this game's world to save a cursed kingdom from destruction. To do so, Hornet must perform all kinds of acrobatic moves to outwit her enemies. In addition, Hornet can craft her own weapons to defeat the more than 200 different enemy creatures in this game.
Hollow Knight is certainly not a simple 2D platformer, the game requires tactics and strategy to fight your way to victory in a world that looks as cartoonish as it is treacherous. Silksong also features a stunning soundtrack you have to hear to believe.

Hollow Knight versus Hollow Knight: Silksong

Of course, there are differences between the first and this second Hollow Knight game, but several successful features have remained:

• Different main character - Silksong features the character Hornet, an acrobatic heroine who is certainly not afraid to take down her enemies.
• New game world - While you previously descended into the game world to reach your goal, now you fight your way upward to escape the game world. The world of Silksong is also much larger.
• More dynamic main character - Hornet is very acrobatic and you really need to use her movement options to outsmart enemies.
• Gameplay - In Silksong, you move horizontally through the game world and there is more variety in environments, enemies, and exploration.
• Collecting and spending - Hollow Knight: Silksong offers more options for using the charms you find, for example to upgrade your weapons.
• Side-quests - In Silksong, the focus is on the main story, but many side-quests have also been added that you can complete for extra rewards.
• Challenge - Silksong caters to both experienced and new players when it comes to difficulty.

What type of game is Silksong?

Silksong is a 2D platform action-adventure game. The beautifully animated 2D graphics are shown from a side view. You move through the game by jumping from platform to platform, but also by having Hornet perform the most acrobatic movements. From crafting your own weapons to solving puzzles, uncovering secrets, and defeating the many enemies the game offers, every level brings a unique challenge. Silksong also falls under the “soulslike” genre, meaning you need to become truly skilled at this challenging game, which takes considerable practice, just like the Demon Souls games.
