Exciting News for Hollow Knight Fans!

Are you a gamer with an ultra-wide monitor who can't get enough of Hollow Knight? Get ready for some thrilling news! On the brink of the eagerly anticipated release of Hollow Knight: Silksong, the game's marketing lead has just revealed that this metroidvania masterpiece will support stunning 21:9 displays!

A First for the Franchise!

Matthew Griffin, the marketing and publishing maestro behind Silksong, treated fans to a sneak peek with four dazzling screenshots demonstrating the game’s breathtaking biomes in ultrawide format. This feature is a significant upgrade—Hollow Knight, launched back in 2017, didn’t offer official support for this immersive display.

Why Ultra-Wide Makes a Difference!

Adding ultrawide support is no small feat; it dramatically alters the game’s field of view and resolution! For a sidescroller like Silksong, the developers had to meticulously design around the expansive view offered by an ultra-wide screen compared to the standard 16:9—ensuring players get to experience every intricate detail in this vibrant world.

Play on Any Platform!

Hollow Knight: Silksong is set to launch on all modern platforms, but remember, ultrawide support is exclusive to PC users. This could be a game-changer for players deciding where to embark on their adventure. Plus, for those eager Switch players, Team Cherry shared that if you own the original Switch, you can upgrade to Switch 2 for free!

An Affordable Adventure Awaits!

No matter which platform you choose, Hollow Knight: Silksong offers incredible value at just $20. Xbox Game Pass subscribers get an even sweeter deal, enjoying the game on launch day without any extra charges!

Mark Your Calendars!

Mark September 4 on your calendar; that’s the day this much-anticipated title launches! Just keep in mind—there won’t be any advance reviews dropping on launch day. But if you’ve been waiting this long, you likely already know you’re all in for this adventure; the real question is: which platform will you choose to dive into the world of Silksong?
