A 2D metroidvania with an emphasis on close combat and exploration in which the player enters the once-prosperous now-bleak insect kingdom of Hallownest, travels through its various districts, meets friendly inhabitants, fights hostile ones and uncovers the kingdom's history while improving their combat abilities and movement arsenal by fighting bosses and accessing out-of-the-way areas.

Incredible artwork, haunting environment, some of the best feeling controls all packed into a metroidvania.
It’s called Hollow Knight because it makes me feel Hollow whenever I try to play any other game in the genre.
One of the greatest Metroidvanias of all time. If this came out before castlevania or metroid....we'd probably call the genre something like a castleknight or hollowvania.
It's a really cool game, but honestly it didn't capture me as much as Hades, for example.
if silksong gets cancelled i am going to change from a donkey kong fan account to a super sami roll fan account
melhor metroidvania que ja joguei (joguei so hollow knight), eu acho a atmosfera desse jogo extremamente confortável, os cenários são absurdos de lindos de se observar ( lago azul goat ), a ost é simplesmente angelical, a jogabilidade gostossísima. o único erro que esse jogo tem é literalmente a burrice do jogador, de resto a história que é contada através de pequenas pistas aqui e ali é genuinamente muito boa, mas precisando de um pouco de atenção pra ser entendida corretamente, é difícil pra caralho e vai precisar de um pouco de esforço pra zerar, mas nada que seja problema porque a jornada e o final valem muito a pena, e a satisfação de passar o path of pain é incomparável.
