Hollow Knight: Silksong to Get Free Upgrade for Nintendo Switch 2

In a few days, players will be able to try out Hollow Knight: Silksong. The developers are gradually preparing fans for the premiere and have revealed details about the game's distribution.

Hollow Knight: Silksong is one of the most anticipated games of 2025. The sequel to Team Cherry's Metroidvania has been exciting players for years, who are waiting for a new journey into a dark and beautiful world full of challenges.

The developers have confirmed another important point: Nintendo Switch 2 users will be able to download the update for free.

At launch, Hollow Knight: Silksong will be released in a standard version for Nintendo Switch. Switch 2 owners will first have to install the game for the previous console. After that, they will be able to download additional files through the eShop - the update will optimize the game for the new generation.

Thanks to this solution, players will get noticeable improvements: there will probably be smoother animation and improved graphics, which will make the game more comfortable and visually appealing.
