Once again, Hollow Knight: Silksong is making its mark on the industry and proving that the wait was well worth it. The return to the universe created by Team Cherry not only expanded the original formula but took it to a whole new level, quickly becoming one of the best metroidvania games out there.
Without a doubt, it’s one of those games that’s thoroughly enjoyable, with demanding combat and an unmistakable seal, Silksong has managed to captivate more than one player, regardless of whether you’re a veteran of this style or a new player.
We’re 7 million players who have bought Silksong since its release
The notion that the Xbox service can be a negative factor in game sales has been debunked once again, and this time I’m referring to Hollow Knight: Silksong which has already surpassed 7 million copies sold worldwide, an impressive achievement that demonstrates the value of a title regardless of its presence on a service.
This success reaffirms that Silksong is popular, beloved, and enjoyed by the community. Additionally, we found out that a brand-new, completely free expansion will be arriving for everyone in 2026.
