As of 2026, Hollow Knight: Silksong presents players with seven unique crests and more than sixty tools, a combination that can overwhelm even veterans. By the time the final act arrives, the sheer number of options makes it difficult to know which crest, Silk Skills, and support tools will produce ...

Supermassive Games' takeover of the Little Nightmares series raised eyebrows among fans. The studio is known for cinematic horror and the Dark Pictures anthology, but gameplay depth has never been its strongest suit. Tarsier Studios left behind a sturdy framework, and during a PAX West preview event...

I still remember the first time a Pollip Heart revealed itself to me in Hollow Knight: Silksong. I was wandering through Shellwood, a region that feels like a cathedral built by roots that never learned to stop growing, when a drift of purple petals caught my eye. They floated from a wall like ash f...

I’ll be honest: the first time I set foot in Pharloom, I got lost so many times that my compass tool filed a restraining order against me. Hollow Knight: Silksong is a gorgeous, sprawling, occasionally infuriating masterpiece, and if you skip the compass, you’re basically asking to wander in circles...

I still remember the moment I sat down at PAX West in Seattle, teaming up with another journalist to enter The Carnevale, the nightmarish fun fair at the heart of Little Nightmares 3. We had roughly an hour, two characters—Low and Alone—and a heady mixture of curiosity and dread. Now, in 2026, after...

Hollow Knight: Silksong doesn't exactly hand out its tastiest rewards on a silver platter. Some items simply won't spawn until players get the ball rolling on a specific Wish — and the Great Taste of Pharloom quest is the poster child for that design philosophy. If a player wanders into the Choral C...

When Hollow Knight: Silksong finally launched in September 2025, it was supposed to be a victory lap for Team Cherry. The sequel had been one of the most anticipated indie games in recent memory, and its arrival set Steam ablaze with record-breaking player numbers. Yet the glow around that launch wa...

Hollow Knight: Silksong has finally stepped out of its shell, and by 2026 the community has already woven a surprisingly robust modding scene around it. While Team Cherry’s design choices are deliberate, many players still look for small conveniences that soften the challenge without breaking the ex...

Most gamers have heard it a hundred times: "Co-op is always better with friends." But for some games, the magic happens not in a Discord call with lifelong buddies, but in the unpredictable chaos of public lobbies and pick-up groups. There's a unique thrill to entering a match with total strangers. ...

Back in 2025, when Hollow Knight: Silksong finally dropped after what felt like an eternity of waiting, players everywhere rejoiced. Then they died. A lot. The game was tough as nails—or should we say, tough as a nail to the face—and while that's par for the course for Team Cherry, some folks found ...

Bellhart's haunting is not a subtle affair. The Widow of Bellhart pulls leftover Silk from Pharloom's remnants, using it to puppeteer the town and summon a storm of bells. Hornet, the protagonist of Hollow Knight: Silksong, has every reason to cut the strings. And make no mistake: this early-game bo...

Since Hollow Knight first invited players into Hallownest, Team Cherry has used the insect kingdom as both aesthetic and narrative engine. By 2026, Hollow Knight: Silksong has had time to settle into the broader metroidvania canon, and its cast remains one of the richest subjects for speculation. Th...
