Hollow Knight: Silksong is a Full-fledged Sequel Coming to PC and Nintendo Switch

Hollow Knight: Silksong was confirmed today as the next project Australian developer Team Cherry is working on. Although Hornet's new adventure was teased beforehand, it was uncertain whether it would be another DLC or something else entirely. As it turns out, we're looking at a full game that plays the role of sequel to Hollow Knight.

The list of features, as described on Team Cherry's website, goes as follows:

• Discover a whole new kingdom! Explore coral forests, mossy grottos, gilded cities and misted moors as you ascend to the shining citadel at the top of the world.
• Engage in lethal acrobatic action! Wield a whole new suite of nimble moves as you dance between foes in deadly, beautiful combat.
• Craft powerful tools! Master an ever-expanding arsenal of weapons, traps and mechanisms to confound your enemies and explore new heights.
• Solve shocking quests! Hunt down rare beasts, unearth ancient mysteries and search for lost treasures to fulfil the wishes of the downtrodden and restore the kingdom’s hope. Prepare for the unexpected!
• Face over 150 all-new foes! Beasts and hunters, assassins and kings, monsters and knights – defeat them all with bravery and skill!
• Experience a stunning orchestral score! Hollow Knight’s award-winning composer, Christopher Larkin, returns to bring melancholy melodies, symphonic strings and heart-thumping, soul strumming boss themes to the adventure.
• Challenge Silk Soul mode! Once you conquer the game, test your skills in an all-new mode that spins the game into a unique, challenging experience.

While no release date was given, we do know that Hollow Knight: Silksong is headed to the Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam, Gog.com and the Humble Store.
