Okay, so you just beat Moss Mother, crawled out of the hole where your prison fell, and got the big questline shoved in your face: reach The Citadel. Congratulations, you have officially entered Act One of Hollow Knight: Silksong. I am writing this as a regular player in 2026, not a speedrunner, and not someone who enjoys bashing my head against optional bosses for an hour just to prove a...

In 2026, Hollow Knight: Silksong players are still trading notes on Rosaries—the rare, pilgrim-carried currency that can make or break a run. Rosaries are one of two main collectible resources in the game, and while Shell Shards keep consumable tools stocked at benches, Rosaries are the coin of the realm for merchants. They are also exceptionally rare, which is why sharp-eyed players keep...

I’m not a speedrunner, and I’m definitely not the kind of player who memorizes every map on day one. So when Hollow Knight: Silksong dropped me into Act Two and the Great Citadel, I was riding high on those bright, welcoming halls. Then the elevator decided to betray me. One mechanical malfunction later, I was plummeting into the Underworks, a dark, desolate slice of the...

Creige's Halfway House has a problem with feathers, and Hornet is the one who can solve it. In Act 1 of Hollow Knight: Silksong, the Crawbug Clearing side quest asks players to collect 25 Ragpelts so that Creige can build a scarecrow. The task sounds simple enough—until the local birds start treating the roof like a personal playground. 🐦 Starting the Crawbug Clearing Quest The quest...

Hollow Knight: Silksong arrived on September 4, 2025, after roughly seven years of development, and promptly became the kind of cultural event that makes storefronts sweat. More than half a million simultaneous players piled onto Steam during its first weekend, while the Xbox Store and Nintendo eShop reportedly wobbled under the traffic. By 2026, the launch hubbub has cooled into the familiar...

The banging behind the metal door in Pilgrim's Rest is one of Far Fields' most provocative pieces of environmental storytelling in Hollow Knight: Silksong. The room sits inside Far Fields, and its sealed door suggests something angry is waiting on the other side. In 2026, the puzzle remains a common stumbling block for players who hear the impact but cannot see an obvious latch, lever, or...

In 2026, Hollow Knight: Silksong is still a frequent talking point among Metroidvania fans, and much of that discussion circles back to Hornet. The sequel was seven years in the making, so expectations were always going to be steep. The 2017 original remains widely regarded as one of the best games in the genre, which made the idea of a follow-up daunting. Yet Silksong has met that challenge in...

I have a confession: I am exactly the kind of player who sees a boss arena and immediately checks whether my will is up to date. So when Hollow Knight: Silksong finally arrived and promptly began folding me like a lawn chair, I did what any reasonable person would do in 2026: I opened the mod page and whispered, hello, accessibility. The Wait Was Worth It, But My Reflexes Are Not Let me be...

Players pushing through Hollow Knight: Silksong know that the Citadel is a gauntlet of hostile creatures, but the Cogwork Dancers stand out as the first major boss you'll face after entering its gilded halls. These mechanical performers may look like a elegant duo, but let's be real — they'll stomp you flat if you rush in without a plan. The good news? Their attack pattern is surprisingly...
