Today was the launch for Hollow Knight: Silksong, and fans are already putting together comparisons for the Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch versions of the game.

It goes without saying, but Silksong is naturally a better experience on the new hardware – though that’s not taking anything away from Nintendo Switch 1. Still, on Nintendo Switch 2, you’re getting an enhanced technical experience. The new system supports a higher resolution and a frame rate up to 120 FPS. There’s also a bit more going on with the Nintendo Switch 2 version in general, though there’s not a massive difference. Other than that, loading times are shorter on Nintendo’s latest system.

Take a look at the Hollow Knight: Silksong Nintendo Switch 2 vs. Switch video comparison below.
