Hollow Knight: Silksong has been a hot topic in the gaming community for a while, especially the game’s “difficulty”, which many consider too brutal to discourage some players. It has been confirmed that there will be a slight reduction in the difficulty level in the new patch that will be released next week.

Similar to the first Hollow Knight, the sequel Silksong is still full of challenges, including scenes fighting common enemies and boss encounters that force players to control characters with high precision. This time, players need more concentration and skill.

Based on the overwhelming feedback, The Team Cherry development team decided to rebalance the game, confirming that they would reduce the difficulty of two early-game bosses, Moorwing and Sister Splinter, to reduce the pressure on new players to adapt more easily. In addition, some enemy damage types have been reduced, as well as increased rewards from collecting items and completing missions, to make the game’s progression system smoother.

Hollow Knight: Silksong’s new patch details

According to the information on the game’s Steam page, the upcoming patch will not only rebalance but also fix a number of bugs and improve the system.

Fixed an issue where players were stuck without a cloak after completing the Slab Escape event.
Solved the issue of some missions at the end of the game not being able to be completed.
Fixed a bug where characters would get stuck after using certain attacks.
Adjusted the price of some items, such as the Bellway and Bell Bench, to be slightly cheaper.
Added rewards for collecting Relics, Psalm Cylinders, and Delivery Missions.
Balance the collider and some malfunctioning tools.

The update also includes several minor bug fixes that players encountered during live play. To make the overall experience more fluid and balanced.

While Hollow Knight: Silksong is still a challenging game, lowering the difficulty levels early in the game will allow new players to enjoy the adventure without feeling excluded from the start. However, fans will remain to wait and see how much this rebalancing will make the game suitable for both new and hardcore players.
