Welcome Aboard the Switch 2 USS Hollow Knight
But wait, there’s more! Rumor has it that a shiny new edition of the original Hollow Knight is being conjured up for the much-anticipated Switch 2. Think of it as the glow-up of the century. Expect high frame-rate modes and stunning graphics that could put many Hollywood blockbusters to shame—because why not? The Switch 2 and its magical tricks are ready to make everything look better than ever before! Players who have already plundered the original on their Switch will receive this upgrade as a complimentary treasure—how generous, right?
Fixes and Features: The Game’s Glow-Up
Now, in preparation for this grand sailing adventure, Team Cherry isn’t just resting on their squid-sized laurels. Oh no! They are busy fixing bugs and rolling out updates across existing versions. Some shiny features, such as support for 21:9 and 16:10 resolutions, have washed ashore, particularly for the Steam version. A full list of updates is available for anyone brave enough to navigate Steam’s labyrinthine pages.
A Staggering Number of Adventurers
In what can only be described as a staggering collective achievement, over 7 million enchanted souls have ventured into the realm of Hollow Knight: Silksong in just three short months since its release. Of course, that number doesn’t include the “millions” who have been splashing around in the game’s waters on Xbox Game Pass. So, whether you pioneer the seas on your couch or sail with friends, the community is expanding faster than a kraken grabbing for a snack.
Thank You, Sailors!
To paraphrase Team Cherry, “A massive thank you to the brave souls who dared to traverse Silksong’s perilous waters! Seriously, it’s over seven million of you legendary players, plus countless others living the Xbox Game Pass dream.” They’ve certainly set a high bar for community engagement this side of the digital ocean. Can they hear the applause? Because it is truly spectacular!
As the bard once said (probably in a pirate tavern), “Nothing motivates like a horde of enthusiastic fans and an enormous bank of unlimited possibilities.” And judging by the sheer excitement of the gaming community, Team Cherry is motivated to spread their wings—or tentacles—in ways never seen before.
So, in summary, grab your swimming gear, don your metaphorical life jackets, and get ready for the plunge into Sea of Sorrow because it’s going to be one whale of an adventure!
