Can't wait for release date.

Switch owner but I am holding out for the PS5 version of this. Platinum’d Hollow Knight Voidheart Edition on PS4 and I was beyond impressed with how deep and engaging this world was. It’s a little bit too obtuse and the difficulty can be a turn off but there is so much to explore. It would have been better to not tie the compass to a charm slot and the game should have had a lore journal (since statues and areas have poetic clues that are very cryptic). This game almost requires a community and wiki to find everything.

I think the Hive was extremely underutilized so I hope to see the bees return to SilkSong. Also, I didn’t find the forced use of the gods trials for story content very fun. It’s frustratingly hard so having trophies tied to that wasn’t enjoyable. Still a 10/10 game for me. I’m sure there may still be things undescovered.

I'd never attempt platinum for this. Good going man. I really enjoyed the game although it was frustratingly hard. That stage with all the saws was crazy. When I finally reached the end of it I forgot to sit on the throne lol

Shame, no word on a release date or other platforms (apart from Switch).

Yeah, indie games selling better on the Switch has had a negative effect on the health of indie gaming for the last gen consoles during their final years - for one publisher in particular. Devolver Digital have done weird stuff before like not releasing Hotline Miami on Xbox but I'm really pissed that Katana Zero and Ape Out never came to PS4, and they didn't release Fall Guys on Switch or Xbox either. It's so lame.

Previous Supergiant Game releases came first to PlayStation and now Hades isn't even on PS4/PS5. I bought all their games besides Transistor because it was on PS Plus. And where's Baba Is You? Unless the publishers are paying for exclusivity, then anything beyond timed exclusivity is just weird. Sony and MS are investing money to attract indie developers (Haven, The Pathless, Scorn, Bugsnax, Maquette, The Medium, etc) but losing so many Devolver Digital releases really sucks.

That sounds very interesting. I'll definitely give it a try if I have the chance.

Hollow Knight is a good game. I still need to finished it, but it's still uploaded, which is something, very few games get a permanent space on my PS5.

Great game but it took me a long time to beat it. I would play it inbetween other games.

VersusDMC25d ago

I didn't get the hype at first and put it down for a year. Then after going on a Metroidvania binge with ender lillies and Wonder Labirinth i picked it up again and ended up loving it.

Crows9025d ago

It's an incredible game....don't know why you wouldn't just play it for it's own sake...probably don't need to play before silk song necessarily.

Nacho_Z25d ago

I remember before I played HK I wasn't particularly bothered, I knew it was highly recommended but I didn't really fancy it. One of my all time favourites now.

There's absolutely no need to play HK before Silksong for lore reasons but if you're interested in the latter you'd be mad to skip the former.
