Team Cherry has released Patch 2 for the widely acclaimed indie game, Hollow Knight: Silksong, continuing their commitment to enhancing the game post-launch. The update, labeled as version 1.0.28650, addresses several critical issues and eradicates certain bugs related to specific gameplay tools, according to the details shared on Team Cherry’s official website.
Team Cherry assures that all the updates included in this patch will be effective retroactively. This means players who were previously stuck due to major bugs can now continue their adventures without hindrance. The developers are also diligently working on a third patch, which will focus on refining PC controller compatibility among other improvements. Team Cherry has stated that this upcoming patch will take a bit longer to arrive as it aims to resolve as many remaining issues as possible.
In addition to technical fixes, addressing the quality of Silksong’s Simplified Chinese translation remains a high priority for Team Cherry. This decision comes in the wake of significant feedback and negative reviews from Chinese players on Steam, who criticized the poor translation quality. Players have commented that the existing translation resembles a Wuxia novel, which fails to capture the game’s intended tone and atmosphere. Complaints about the translation being awkwardly archaic and at times completely nonsensical were also noted.
In response, Team Cherry has confirmed that a completely revised translation is being prepared by a reputable team and is expected to be ready within three to four weeks, with immediate implementation to follow. Meanwhile, Team Cherry highlighted that a skilled group of Hollow Knight enthusiasts has created their own full-translation mod for Silksong, which has received positive feedback, suggesting it as an alternative for players dissatisfied with the official translation.
For those currently navigating the challenges of Silksong, Team Cherry recommends several resources to enhance the gaming experience. These include the Silksong Interactive Map, guides on obtaining Rosary Beads, comprehensive walkthroughs featuring boss videos, tips on securing the first life bar upgrade, and a useful guide for using Simple Keys.
