Team Cherry has announced Hollow Knight: Silksong, coming to Linux

By - | Views: 13,636

The sequel to Hollow Knight has now been officially announced by Team Cherry as Hollow Knight: Silksong.

The best news? They've already confirmed the sequel will be on Linux in their official announcement:

Hollow Knight: Silksong will be available, at launch, on Windows, Mac, Linux & Nintendo Switch. More platforms may happen! Just remember, we’re 3 people, already working rather hard, so we haven’t committed to anything else just yet. We don’t wanna collapse before we get this massive bug kingdom ready for you.

Have a peek at their trailer:

What it will feature:

  • Discover a whole new kingdom! Explore coral forests, mossy grottos, gilded cities and misted moors as you ascend to the shining citadel at the top of the world.
  • Engage in lethal acrobatic action! Wield a whole new suite of nimble moves as you dance between foes in deadly, beautiful combat.
  • Craft powerful tools! Master an ever-expanding arsenal of weapons, traps and mechanisms to confound your enemies and explore new heights.
  • Solve shocking quests! Hunt down rare beasts, unearth ancient mysteries and search for lost treasures to fulfil the wishes of the downtrodden and restore the kingdom’s hope. Prepare for the unexpected!
  • Face over 150 all-new foes! Beasts and hunters, assassins and kings, monsters and knights – defeat them all with bravery and skill!
  • Experience a stunning orchestral score! Hollow Knight’s award-winning composer, Christopher Larkin, returns to bring melancholy melodies, symphonic strings and heart-thumping, soul strumming boss themes to the adventure.
  • Challenge Silk Soul mode! Once you conquer the game, test your skills in an all-new mode that spins the game into a unique, challenging experience.

What's really cool, is that people who helped on the original Kickstarter campaign for the first game, will be getting a copy of Silksong free!

How come I completely missed Hollow Knight? This game looks fantastic, have to give it a try.

I was, not long ago, wondering when they'd start something new. I'm still wary of finishing the first one as it'll leave a gap...I will purchase this when its out. Good luck to the team.

I have yet to even touch the first game! With all the praise for Hollow Knight and how it supports Linux and its sequel will too, perhaps I should just give all my love and support to that game franchise instead of being angry over how the developers of Bloodstained: Ritual Of The Night cancelled Linux support.
