Hollow Knight: Silksong has been out for a while by 2026, and its reputation as a punishing metroidvania has only hardened. Players still expect a few bugs in a game about bugs, but Team Cherry’s sequel delivers an overwhelming swarm of them. Not technical glitches—these are intentional, exquisitely designed nightmares.

Deliveries in Hollow Knight: Silksong are absolutely brutal, and the Courier’s Ration run is the one that made me want to throw my controller across the room. You are not just fighting bosses or arena battles; you are racing a timer while trying to keep fragile cargo from getting smashed

In 2026, Hollow Knight: Silksong is no longer a mythical sequel whispered about in forums. It is a real, sprawling, bug-infested triumph, and it has committed a crime that would make a certain kind of purist clutch their controller: it added a quest journal. Hornet, the fierce princess-protector of Pharloom,

In 2026, Hollow Knight: Silksong still feels like a beautiful, brutal secret. You wake in Pharloom with no map, no compass, and no kind voice telling you where to go. The game wants you to be lost. It wants you to earn every inch of ground. For many players, that

I have a confession: I am not good at Hollow Knight: Silksong. I am stubborn, though. I have spent dozens of hours getting humbled by its platforming, its map, and its bosses. And as of 2026, after several post-launch patches, the hardest fights still feel like they were designed by

The gaming community was electrified when Nintendo officially confirmed a Nintendo Direct showcase for September 12, 2025, at 9 a.m. ET. The 60-minute presentation was scheduled just one day before Mario’s 40th anniversary, leading many to expect at least one Mario-related surprise. At that time, Nintendo had already delivered a

In the sprawling world of Hollow Knight: Silksong, players will encounter all sorts of grotesque and challenging bosses. Among them is Disgraced Chef Lugoli, a foul-mouthed culinary disaster who has taken up residence in Sinner’s Road. Some might fancy themselves a home chef, but Lugoli takes the cake—or rather, burns

The world of Hollow Knight: Silksong is filled with relentless foes, but few inspire as much dread and respect as Lace. Ever since her first appearance in Deep Docks, she has served as Hornet’s recurring rival, growing stronger with each encounter. Just when you think you’ve seen the last of

The moment Hornet set foot in the mossy ruins of Pharloom, she knew this pilgrimage would be nothing like her previous adventures. The Knight’s steady, soul‑driven journey was a distant memory. Here, speed was everything, and Silk—precious, volatile Silk—was the currency of survival. Enemies struck faster, traps bit harder, and

As a longtime Nightfarer, I booted up Elden Ring: Nightreign the moment I saw FromSoftware had deployed patch 1.03.1 across all platforms. The update is not just a routine maintenance drop. For anyone who owns The Forsaken Hollows DLC, it pours fresh content into the ultra-hard Deep of Night mode.

Ah, Sinner’s Road. In 2026, I still wake up in a cold sweat thinking about its water. This optional slice of upper Greymoor is Hollow Knight: Silksong’s way of asking, ‘Do you enjoy being miserable, or do you just tolerate it?’ It is also an alternate route to Act Two,

I’ve spent the last week doing something I never thought I’d do in Elden Ring: Nightreign—standing at the edge of a cliff, squinting at the minimap, and whispering, ‘Please don’t be a death pit.’ That’s the Great Hollow experience, folks. The Forsaken Hollows DLC has been out for a month
