Hollow Knight will receive an update with two new bosses in July

  • 19

Adventure action-platformer Hollow Knight will soon receive a small but nice update. The developers promise to release the first package of content for the game in July this year.

The free upgrade will include 2 new optional bosses with two accompanying musical themes, the ability to quickly navigate between levels thanks to the Dream Gate and a new station for stunts. Access to new content can be obtained from anywhere in the game.

The exact release date of the update for Hollow Knight will be announced later. And before that, you can go through the main game, which is available on the PC, Xbox One and PS4.

While I still haven't played it, it is certainly one of the better -- if not one of the best -- indie metroidvanias out there (and there are many). Happy to hear about the update, and it's free too :)

Info straight from Steam:

  • 2 New Bosses - Leap into battle with the mightiest foes! These epic new duels will test even the most skilled of players. Each fight grants rewards to the victor, though note: Engaging with each imposing boss is entirely optional! Who are these enigmatic, impossible-to-discern figures? We’re not telling! It’s up to you to find out this July!
     
  • 2 New Tracks - Epic battles need epic music and Chris’s been preparing just that, with stirring new boss themes for each encounter! He's gone all out on these ones!
     
  • New Upgrade: Dream Gate - Discover a whole new method of traversing Hallownest! Slice through the Veil and travel in an instant from one corner of the kingdom to another.
     
  • A New Stag Station Uncovered - Hallownest’s stags once travelled the breadth of the kingdom, but with the departure of the King, one station was walled away, hidden from bugs and forgotten by stags, until now!
