Silksong Gives Hollow Knight the Bloodborne Treatment

Echoes of Bloodborne can be found throughout Hollow Knight: Silksong, from its opening level to its secret endings.

Team Cherry’s long-awaited follow-up to 2017’s Hollow Knight not only resembles FromSoftware’s gothic horror masterpiece in theming and visuals, but also in the way it shakes up gameplay mechanics introduced by its predecessor. By giving players control of a more agile character, and tweaking combat to favor bolder, more aggressive playstyles, Silksong builds on Hollow Knight in much the same way that Bloodborne built on Dark Souls, perfecting a blueprint its developers have stuck to ever since.
