Hard but Great Game
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Incredibly difficult game, but very rewarding. The hand drawn levels and landscapes are candy to the eyes and the tone setting music really makes the game special. The game will test you, but overcoming those challenges is EPIC!

Become the Void
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had heard that this game was fun so i decided to pick it up during the off-season. Um, wow. This game is not only fun, but has a fascinating story and the world has so much character. Hollow Knight is challenging at times, but never quite like Elden Ring (blessings). You have so much to explore, a plot to discover, and epic battles to conquer. And let me say the music - INCREDIBLE. Highly recommend this game to anyone. Cannot wait for the sequel.

Great, but Difficult Platformer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a 2D metroidvaina-style platforming game with difficult levels and bosses. It’s very fun, but not for the faint of heart. It is a quality experience, and a well-made game. The copy I received had a sticker on the wrapper indicating the game contains all DLC released so far, which is great.

Awesome!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is what gaming is all about. There are words to describe how great this game is but I'll try. First of all it's beautiful to look at. As you traverse all the areas of the kingdom you'll be taken aback by the beautiful backgrounds and the diversity of the characters for small to big. The Lore and stories of hollownest just envelope you into it. The challenges are many and some are easy while many are not. I find myself coming back to this game on a daily basis determined to beat it. I can't hello it as I've been so drawn into it. One of the best things about this game is the cost. Now I'm one that feels the price of games on the gaming world is a bit rediculous. I normally wait for prices to go WAY down or I buy games second hand. I purchased this game at its everyday price of $16.99 (???)The funny thing is i feel this game is worth SOOOO MUCH more. I truly hope whom so ever reads this review invests a few dollars for this game. It gets the highest recommendation! You cannot go wrong!

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionDoes this bring a manual and map like the fangamer version?
Asked by Switchy.
- A:Answer This is the Fangamer version so yes it does.
Answered by Zyzoxing
Q: QuestionWill the physical edition of Hollow Knight include all the Hollow Knight DLC, in addition to the new sequel game, Hollow Knight Silk Song?
Asked by ChickenNugget.
- A:Answer No the Best Buy version only contains the first 3 DLC while Godmaster is a 1.7 GB download. If you want the full DLC on cart you’ll have to wait for the next batch of games from Fangsmer to arrive. The new sequel isn’t out and no clue on how they’ll handle the physical release of that.

Q: QuestionI never got these instructions emailed to redeem this item and my digital library is empty when I sign in.
Asked by David.
- A:Answer Not sure if this was answered, but I'd reach out to their support. My cashier did not place an Email down when I asked for an email receipt. So, my code was planned to be sent to "EMAIL". Yes just Email, not my actual email, but the word EMAIL. For anyone having issues like this, your receipt (digital or physical) should state where your code is going to. If it doesn't list your email, then you gotta go back and ask for that code!! (or call their support...the store won't be able to give you the code)

Q: QuestionWhat is digital copy vs physical copy
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Digital copy is where you download it directly from the Nintendo E-shop. Physical copy is an actual physical cartridge you buy in-store. If you buy the digital copy, what you get is a code you type into E-shop to download it.
Answered by Answer4U
Q: QuestionWhy does the physical edition cost over twice as much as the digital edition? Are they adding content?
Asked by ChickenNugget.
- A:Answer Just in case you haven’t found your answer already, let me help you out. The physical version is basically the same as the digital version in that both versions include all the DLC by default. The only added thing you’re paying for is just the game being in physical form but you do admittedly get an added bonus of a physical manual, map, and a discount for some merch on a site I can’t remember the name of. If that seems worth your time then I say go for it!
