Hollow Knight: Silksong patch 5 is here, and while that means all kinds of nifty fixes, there's arguably an even more important detail. Team Cherry confirms this will be the last major update before the Sea of Sorrow expansion launches.
"Patch 5 is intended as the last significant update before Silksong’s upcoming major expansion: Sea of Sorrow," the devs explain in their announcement. Sea of Sorrow is set to launch sometime in 2026, but Team Cherry hasn't provided any more specific release information than that. Given how the wait for Silksong went, I expect the devs will want to remain as vague as possible before dropping the free expansion.
