Team Cherry is planning a small expansion for its two games, one of which will be released on another platform.
The company announced a free expansion, Sea of Sorrows, for the game available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Hollow Knight: Silksong will receive the expansion sometime in 2026. Team Cherry revealed that Sea of Sorrow will feature new areas, bosses, tools, and more. Hornet’s adventures continue in this sea-themed expansion. While the developers are keeping further details under wraps for now, they are expected to reveal more information soon, ahead of the release. Despite its availability on Xbox Game Pass, the game has already sold over 7 million copies and achieved excellent sales.
Additionally, Team Cherry announced Hollow Knight — Nintendo Switch 2 Edition. The port will be released in 2026, and those who already own the game on the Nintendo Switch will receive a free update. The Nintendo Switch 2 Edition will include all the updates and improvements that Hollow Knight: Silksong received on the Switch 2, including modes for higher frame rates, higher resolution, and additional graphical effects. In preparation for the Nintendo Switch 2 release, Team Cherry plans to update all versions of the original Hollow Knight (PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC) with new features and bug fixes.
PC users can try out these new features on Steam and GOG through the public beta versions. The game supports 21:9 and 16:10 aspect ratios, which remain consistent in the inventory menus. The Unity Input System has been updated to support more controllers (the original input system is still available here: Go to Options > Controller > Advanced Settings. Dithering effects and options are available to reduce the appearance of color banding.
The developers fixed a softlock in the City of Tears Grub room, reduced Grey Prince Zote’s stagger bounce height, updated Sly Great Slash’s collision to better match its visual appearance, and made Salubra’s Blessing deactivate after reaching the maximum Soul value. Map scanning is now smoother, and several minor fixes and refinements have been made.
