The next Hollow Knight: Silksong patch is on the way, as developer Team Cherry is now focused on polishing the game up further with post-launch updates. The studio says that while the first patch was focused on dealing with critical issues--and making a few boss fights a little easier--a few bugs still remain. Additionally, Team Cherry is looking to address several issues around specific tools in the game.
There's no release date yet for the patch, but it is being tested in the public-beta branch of Silksong, and overall, you can expect tweaks and fixes across the board. For example, the Savage Beastfly in Far Fields won't be tempting fate by being too close to lava, a softlock issue that occurred with Shaman Binding has been fixed, and an issue with the break-counter not working for certain multi-hitter tools has also been resolved. Players can also visit the Silksong help site to see what the temporary solutions are for critical bugs.
Silksong has been a big hit since it launched earlier this month, and according to GamerDiscoverCo's estimates, the metroidvania has sold 6 million units so far--up from initial estimates of 5 million sales shortly after launch. The firm estimates that 3.2 million sales are on Steam alone, with sales mostly focused in the US and China. If you're looking to jump in and play the challenging game, you can check out the best Silksong PC mods to fine-tune the difficulty and out GameSpot's Hollow Knight: Silksong guides hub for several helpful features.
