Team Cherry has announced the first major expansion for Hollow Knight: Silksong. Titled “Sea of Sorrow,” the DLC is set to release free for all players in 2026. The announcement comes as Silksong’s remarkably successful launch year draws to a close, marking a triumphant milestone for the independent developer.
Since its launch, Silksong has exceeded all expectations with over seven million copies sold, alongside millions more experiencing the game through Xbox Game Pass. The launch proved so successful that it temporarily crashed multiple storefronts. Alongside the announcement for the DLC, Team Cherry expressed gratitude for the thriving community that has emerged around the game and the supportive player base that has rallied around the game’s challenging content.
