Hollow Knight: Silksong update 2 announced, patch notes
Team Cherry has announced a second update for Hollow Knight: Silksong. It’s not available on Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch yet, but it should be soon.
Unlike the last patch which included gameplay adjustments – notably for bosses – there’s none of that to speak of here. This time around, Team Cherry is mostly focusing on bug fixes.
The full rundown is as follows:
