Team Cherry has revealed Hollow Knight: Silksong as a full sequel, starring fan-favourite Hornet in an all-new kingdom.

Hornet Gets Her Own Game
Team Cherry officially revealed Hollow Knight: Silksong as the full sequel to Hollow Knight.
The game stars Hornet, one of the most popular characters from the original game, and sends her to a completely new kingdom.
From DLC to Full Sequel
Silksong was originally planned as extra content for Hollow Knight, but the project became too large and different to stay as DLC.
Instead, Team Cherry turned it into a full game with new areas, enemies, bosses, quests, tools, and movement abilities.
Why Fans Were Excited
The reveal was huge because Hollow Knight already had a dedicated fanbase.
Seeing Hornet become the main character gave players something fresh while still keeping the same dark, mysterious world style that made the original game so popular.
