Hollow Knight Silksong madness may have reached a new peak. For years, "Fine, we'll make our own game" has been a jokey motto – one of many – for the Skong faithful, fed up with waiting for Team Cherry's long-anticipated sequel (finally coming later this year) and pondering the feasibility of making one for themselves. But, thanks to a devoted team of fans, a convincing Hollow Knight fan game is now very real and shooting for a 2025 launch, and it looks and sounds so much like the genuine article, you'd be forgiven for initially thinking it's a new Silksong showcase.
That game is Godgrounds, an unofficial Hollow Knight fighting game that started with the work of just two people back in 2023. Lead developer Rockm recently shared an update on the team's progress with the Hollow Knight Reddit community, and I immediately had to learn more about it.
