Hollow Knight: Silksong September 12th Patch Released & Detailed

Team Cherry has released the second patch for the epic sequel to Hollow Knight, Hollow Knight: Silksong, and shared its full patch notes. So, let’s see what this new update brings to the table.

Title Update 1.0.28497 focuses on fixing several bugs players have run into. For example, it fixes a problem where players could lose their cloak after the Slab escape sequence. It also fixes an issue where courier deliveries sometimes couldn’t be accessed in the late game. On top of that, it fixes a bug where Lugoli could leave the arena and never come back.

And that’s not all. This new patch also makes the game a bit easier and smoother to play. Sandcarvers will now deal less damage. It also fixes a bug where the player could get stuck floating after bouncing down on certain projectiles. The patch removes the float override input (down + jump after getting the Faydown Cloak). On top of that, mid-game Bellway and Bell Bench prices are now a little cheaper, and you’ll get slightly more rosary rewards from relics and psalm cylinders.

Like always, Steam will download this update the next time you launch its client. Below, you can also find its complete changelog.
