In September 2025, Hollow Knight: Silksong did more than dominate conversation. It absorbed the attention of the entire indie scene, pushing many planned releases away from its launch window. Adventure of Samsara, a 2D Metroidva...

On Sunday, Michelle Yeoh took home the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award for her outstanding performance as a leading female actor in 'Everything Everywhere All at Once.'

When Jeff Bridges presented the a...
By 2026, I had heard every horror story about Silksong's Cogwork Core. White Palace? Path of Pain? Cute little warm-ups. Pharloom apparently looked at those and said, 'Hold my silk.' The upper Cogwork Core is a v...
In 2026, the first official Hollow Knight: Silksong update reads less like a routine patch note and more like a snapshot of Team Cherry responding to the loudest launch-week conversations. When Silksong arrived on September 4, 2025, players celebrated the long-awaited sequel, then quickly began debating its difficulty. Bosses hitting for double damage, Hornet’s generous hitbox, and the sharpnes...
By 2026, Hollow Knight: Silksong has settled into its place as a demanding, beautiful pilgrimage through Pharloom, and one of the earliest Wishes still catches travelers before they have learned the land’s sharper rules. The Lost Fleas sends Hornet after five wayward pilgrims scattered across The Marrow, Hunter’s March, Deep Docks, and Far Fields. It is a collect-a-thon, yes,...
As someone who played the original Hollow Knight at launch and has logged countless hours since, I've always regarded it as the pinnacle of the Metroidvania genre. Its charm, tight design, and exploration were unmatched. So when Hollow Knight: Silksong finally arrived, I was both excited and apprehensive. Could a sequel improve on near-perfection? After spending dozens of hours in Pharloom, I c...
In 2026, Hollow Knight: Silksong players who have reached the Citadel in Act Two often discover that the biggest rewards are not tied to the final boss. One of the most useful detours is the Wandering Merchant quest, a short rescue mission that unlocks Jubilana as a vendor in Songclave. The quest is easy to miss if players rush through the Citadel, but the payoff is excellent: access to the Asc...
Even in 2026, with countless guides and patch notes floating around, Hollow Knight: Silksong still has a few spots that make players want to pull their hair out. The Mist is one of them. This eerie, ghost-filled puzzle area isn’t your typical point-A-to-point-B dungeon. It’s a loop, a trap, and a test of patience all rolled into one. The good news? Once a player understands the...
As a regular player who has been waiting for Hollow Knight: Silksong since the original game ate my entire summer back in the day, I still remember launch week like it was yesterday. It was 2025, and the internet basically melted. Steam crashed. The Switch eShop crashed. I think even my fridge would have crashed if it had a store page. Team Cherry dropped Silksong without sending out review cod...
