Customer Ratings & Reviews

In the vein of metroid and castelvenia it is equal parts exploration, combat and platformer. It excels on all three fronts with amazing graphics and a superb soundtrack as icing on the cake.

Amazing game especially for the price. Beautiful visuals and rich storyline. May be frustrating for younger gamers because it is a bit of a difficult game.

This was a Christmas list wish. Grandsons had played it at a friend's house and had a great time and they wanted to own so tgey could play again and again.

Hollow Knight is an absolutely stunning platformer!! Be warned you will die ALOT but it is so addictive that you just keep coming back for more!! Hollow Knight is one of my most played games next to Splatoon 2 and Luigi’s Mansion 3!! There is so much exploring that you can do and the graphics and sound effects are so beautifully stunning and immersive!! If I could give this 100 stars I would! If you are on the fence about purchasing this game just do it you won’t regret it!!

The story is compelling. The visuals are beautiful. It is a dark fantasy that would compete with the best bed-time stories (I regularly played the game before bed). The gameplay is fun and addictive. It is an easy game to pick up and put down. The level ups are interesting and meaningful. One of the best games I played in the past 10 years (for context, here are some of my favorite games: Fallout 4, Uncharted series, Dead Space).

Amazing metrovania title, little hard to start but once i got into it, top 10

While the game can be hard, it's one of the best metroidvania games of all time. With a gorgeous art style, you'll cherish your adventure through this great game.

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.

One of the best side scrolling soulslike there is.

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.

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!

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

Incredible game and considering that this physical edition comes with a map and guide book; it’s a no brainer to pay the premium and grab this over digital version.

A challenging game that requires a lot of thinking and problem solving skills.

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

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

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.

Excellent game. Very good story with great design and characters

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