Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game is yet another indie-developed, 2D Metroidvania, action platformer that borrows a lot of positive elements from other well established titles, but still manages to establish its own identity and offers a worthwhile experience. It borrows the level design, exploration and ability progression philosophies of the Metroid series, and combines them with the combat and risk v. reward systems of Dark Souls. The game is presented in a unique, hand drawn art style that perfectly captures the dark and mysterious nature of the world and all the characters that inhabit it. The narrative is equally mysterious and intriguing, providing a compelling and natural incentive to drive the player towards exploring the world and unlock the many secrets it has to offer. The physical edition comes with a fully printed manual, which feels like a nice throwback to classic releases from the SNES era of gaming. If collecting physical games is important to you then this is worth picking up, but if you don't mind digital and would prefer to save, then the digital version can be purchased for less than half the cost.

looking for something to occupy my mind and this did the trick x10!

This is was a surprise gift for my 12-year-old son who got a Switch in 2018. He did not know to ask for this game, but I did a search and it came up on all the top-ten Switch game lists. He would agree that it deserves the praise. The art style is "AMAZING," the level designs are outstanding, and battles are challenging and fun. This will not get old too quickly. Only downside is that it is not multiplayer, but it still deserves five stars.

Was always on the look out, and Best Buy had it. Awesome game!!

Imhaving a lot of fun with this game, it gives you a good challenge but not to the point that you get frustrated, you will definitely enjoy this game if you like platform games.

This game is a great game if you like to explore. The art work is unique and has a darker vibe to it. I would recommend checking this game out!

Kid loves this game and lore. Would recommend if you have a kid that enjoys roblox etc.

Objectively the best Metroidvania. Game has a beautiful artstyle, likable characters, a compelling story and lore, solid gameplay, and hours of content.

A must have title on any platfrom. But it looks more amazing on switch given the game's platform based gameplay. The difficulty though is similar to bloodborne. Also the fact that there are no specific instructions. Even the map provided with the physical game copy, is not really that useful are readable at glance. But otherwise, this game is a classic. Eagerly waiting for the next installment of this series.

Great art style, music and lore. Just a great game all around. Highly recommended to anyone who digs Metroidvania's and is looking for a challenge.

Bought this a as gift didn't have any complain so must be good and not expensive at all.

Brings back what I love about castlevania games. From the soundtrack to the gameplay this is a well designed game. Would definitely recommend

Such a good game! A good adventure story! Great music and awesome graphics! Would recommend this game to anyone

Love this game and is challenging. The art style and gameplay is eye candy

Hollow Knight is a Metroidvania with a well of content to discover that’s as deep as its labyrinthine caves. The world of Hallownest is compelling and rich, full of story that’s left for you to discover on your own, and built with branching paths that offer an absurd amount of choice in how you go about discovering it. With such a high density of secrets to find and fun, challenging enemies to face, it’s worth spending every moment you can in Hollow Knight.

Love this game. I'm not a gamer or that into games but I found this game fun and engaging with a cute story.

Hollow Knight expands on aspects of the metroidvania genre while combining it with a refreshingly new story line and beautiful art.

One of the best side scrolling soulslike there is.

Beautiful game. Fantastic art design and an amazing score. Some tough bosses, but I've never played a platform that felt this immersive

Lovely soulslike and metroidvania game that a lot of people will enjoy. It has great art, music and atmosphere
