About the Game
Hollow Knight: Silksong is a demanding action-adventure where you play Hornet across a cursed kingdom of silk and song.
Hollow Knight: Silksong is a single-player action-adventure from Team Cherry, tagged as action, adventure and indie. You take on the role of Hornet, a deadly hunter who is captured and dropped into an unfamiliar world. The journey is a dangerous pilgrimage toward the peak of the kingdom, where every step means fighting through swarms of insects and beasts.
The core loop revolves around fast, dance-like combat. You weave between strong enemies with precise, lethal moves, then use the weapons, traps and mechanisms you gather to push into new areas. Along the way you hunt rare creatures, untangle old mysteries, and take on quests that help the oppressed insect folk and restore hope to the realm. Exploration is the heart of it: the store description points to mossy caverns, gilded city-states and misty wastelands, all climbing toward a shining castle at the summit.
The game is presented as the sequel to Hollow Knight, which the store page describes as an award-winning action-adventure. Christopher Larkin, who also composed the original, returns for the score, with melancholic melodies, sweeping orchestral strings and boss themes that are built to be memorable. The scale is large, with more than 200 fierce enemies and over 40 legendary bosses. Once the kingdom is conquered, a harsher mode called Steel Soul lets you test your limits further.

Who It Is (and Is Not) For
Recommended For
Players who enjoy tough, precise action games and don't mind learning enemy patterns through repeated attempts will find a lot to love here. Fans of the original Hollow Knight get a continuation of that story and its atmosphere. Anyone who likes exploring a large, mysterious world full of secrets and optional challenges should feel right at home.
Not Recommended For
Players who want a relaxed, low-pressure experience may find the demanding combat and the harsher Steel Soul mode frustrating. If you are looking for a free game right now, note that this title is currently listed at its full regular price in Taiwan, so it is not a giveaway.
What the Steam Reviews Say
Hollow Knight: Silksong carries a Steam review label of 極度好評 (Very Positive), with 89% of reviews positive. That is a strong, clearly favorable result, and it is backed by hundreds of thousands of reviews, which means the score is built on a very large sample rather than a handful of opinions.
On Steam, a Very Positive label with a high positive percentage and a large review count generally signals that most players who finished or spent time with the game felt it was worth their money. Small review counts can swing wildly, so the bigger volume here makes the score more reliable. Your own taste still matters, so it is worth scanning recent reviews on the official Steam page before buying.

All prices here are Taiwan Steam store prices in NT$. Hollow Knight: Silksong is currently NT$ 328, which is the same as its regular price, so it is not on a discount right now. The lowest paid price we have recorded is NT$ 246, set on June 26, 2026, which was a 25% discount from the regular price. We have seen it discounted often, and the highest price we recorded is also NT$ 328. It has not been offered free to keep in our records.
Our price record is still short, so the verdict on timing is tentative. We have seen the game discounted before, which suggests that another sale is possible, but there is no guarantee of when or how deep the next one will be. The NT$ 328 price is the full regular price, so buying now means paying the top price in our records.
If you want the game immediately, the current price is a fair regular price for a title with this much content and strong reviews. If you can wait, adding it to your wishlist and watching for the next sale is a reasonable approach, given how often it has been discounted.
