Customer Ratings & Reviews

The aesthetics are excellent, while the music and ambiance are darkly charming. There's a lot to like here. The only complaint I have is in controls. Not sure if it's my Switch or what, but there's a noticable delay between button press and action, and as an old school gamer playing a homage to the classics, that seems like a pretty substantial concern. But, if you adjust to that, and like the general vibe of the game, you'll find a rewarding experience here.

This game is fun and a bit challenging. Boss fights are fun and some can be quite challenging to beat and will take multiple tries. I would 100% recommend for people that are into metroidvania type games.

This is a must have game for any switch owner. it has a great story, amazing hand drawn animation for the entire game and wonderful mechanics. Fans of mega man, castlevania, metroid, etc should play. this is a great game and wonder additional to switch collection.

good game for the price if you want to play one of the best of its genre

This was actually i really cool game. I had read about how highly recommended it was, and I was afraid that I was going to expect too much from the game. Good news, it was actually better. Definitely worth the price.

You have to discover the story bit by bit throughout the game but is a solid metroidvania with tight controls. In addition the developers have included several free DLC that increase the base game to provide even tougher challenges.

The music, atmosphere and your cute little character are just a few things that make this great. Feels like it has some Super Metroid elements to it with the vast exploring, fun upgrades and more. Classic side scrolling action Don't think, just do it.

We love playing this game even though it tends to get difficult at times. Definitely surprised more people haven’t played it since it really is a great game. & unlike almost every other Switch game, it comes with a manual!

My teenager loves this game. Easy to play yet challenging for my teenager

Awesome and at times somewhat grindy game play. Fun factor is sure to please and the fulfillment of leveling up and customizing are definitely satisfying. Difficulty and learning curve are wonderfully balanced. All in all I'd say it's worth owning.

An amazing platform gamer for all ages. The logician vibrant backgrounds bring a Charming Darkness to the world of Hollow Knight. Get ready to have a blast as you bash, Dash, and slash your way to triumph!

Fantastic game! I seem to enjoy side-scrollers a lot more on my Switch, and being a physical copy collector, made buying this a no-brainer. This is such a beautiful game that was well crafted, a true masterpiece.

This is a really interesting game. The first time I played I hate it I couldn’t understand why I was getting such great reviews. As is soon as it came out for the switch I had to get another try. I am really glad I did. You should too.

Hollow Knight is one of the best indie games that deserve to have a physical copy to be more memorable

I have yet to beat this game. Love the challenge. Love the story. Love the minimalistic look of the graphics.

Great game came quick and as advertised. Very happy with purchase.

I bought Hollow Knight for $7 through Best Buy. I had no idea how much I would end up loving this game.

This platformer is Such an amazing game! 10/10 recommend, very chill and laid back to play

Wonderful platforming and gameplay. Definitely a must-have on the Switch.

Excellent game for metroidvania fans or gamers new to the genre. Great platforming and smooth mechanics. Explore a dark and mysterious insect kingdom while being challenged with new bosses with every new unlocked area.
