An achievement hunter has managed to get every Hollow Knight achievement the Metroidvania has to offer on just their first two playthroughs, including one that requires you to complete the entire game on a permadeath run.
As Lerkinz set out at the beginning of their video, they have to commit to two runs to get every achievement the game offers. The main reason is that certain unlockables are tied to narrative decisions that prohibit you from getting other ones. You also can’t tackle Hollow Knight’s permadeath mode, Iron Soul, until you’ve completed the game at least once.
