Hollow Knight: Silksong previews its third post-release update, which introduces both platform-specific and all-inclusive improvements.
Team Cherry has outlined the next Hollow Knight: Silksong update, which is already available for beta testing, with some limitations. The new release introduces expanded controller support and various Hollow Knight: Silksong bug fixes, among other novelties.
October 4 will mark the one-month anniversary of Hollow Knight: Silksong’s massively successful launch. Since then, Team Cherry has released two updates for the hit metroidvania, both of which debuted as part of the game’s beta branch on Steam and GOG before rolling out to everyone.
Hollow Knight: Silksong Update 3 Promises Expanded Controller Support and More
The third patch continues this pattern, having reached the GOG and Steam versions of Hollow Knight: Silksong on September 27. A significant portion of the currently experimental build is dedicated to bettering the game’s controller support, which Team Cherry has expanded to include Sony’s DualSense Edge. The macOS version of the game has also received support for additional controllers as part of this release, the patch notes read, though without listing specific gamepad models or drivers.
On a similar note, the new Hollow Knight: Silksong update includes fixes for smaller controller issues, as well as one bigger annoyance: the fact that the game would not pause when a gamepad disconnected.
