Hollow Knight is an award-winning platforming game developed by Australian indie studio Team Cherry.

Players explore vast underground catacombs of the ruined Hallownest kingdom. Much of the map is locked off to the player in the beginning but becomes accessible after the player finds key objects or gains new or enhanced skills.

Initially created through a successful Kickstarter campaign, Hollow Knight has playful animation, slick game mechanics and a unique gothic aesthetic that has seen it sell over a million copies worldwide.
