Artist Draws Real Bugs in Hollow Knight Style Daily Until Silksong Finally Drops!

Summary

  • Fan draws real-life bugs in Hollow Knight‘s style until Silksong releases, sparking community excitement.
  • Hollow Knight: Silksong, initially thought to be DLC, is eagerly awaited and still highly anticipated.
  • Creative fans share artwork inspired by the game, while the sequel’s developers hint at progress.

A dedicated fan of “Hollow Knight” has showcased their stunning artwork to the community, revealing they’re creating sketches of actual bugs in the game’s distinctive style until the upcoming sequel, “Hollow Knight: Silksong,” is launched. Released by Australian indie studio Team Cherry in 2017, “Hollow Knight” invites players to control protagonist the Knight as they delve into the bug-infested realm of Hallownest. Despite its challenging gameplay, “Hollow Knight” has maintained its popularity, with the gaming world continuing to praise its music, art, and immersive world design eight years later.

Initially, it was revealed as an expansion pack for the original game called “Hollow Knight” in 2019, but later confirmed to be a standalone sequel titled “Hollow Knight: Silksong.” Lately, this eagerly awaited sequel has been surpassed in Steam’s Most-Wishlisted games by “Monster Hunter Rise,” the latest addition to Capcom’s popular action-RPG series. However, the buzz surrounding the upcoming sequel remains undiminished, with it now holding third place on the list, just behind Valve’s “Deadlock.

On Reddit, user EvenAd4523 shared some sketches on the Hollow Knight community, created by an artist who is working on a project inspired by the upcoming game Silksong. The artist has depicted a real-life scorpion in the style of the Hollow Knight game, much like another fan who drew Mass Effect characters using the artistic influence of Metroidvania. This shows us what insects from our world might resemble if they inhabited Hallownest. The post mentioned that this artist will continue to draw real-life bugs in the style of Hollow Knight until Silksong is released, suggesting a vast array of bug drawings may be on the horizon.

Other Reddit users applauded the artist’s work and suggested ideas for future creations, including Isopods and Assassin Bug Nymphs. Fans also pointed out that the artist may eventually exhaust their supply of insect subjects, hinting at the delay in the release of Silksong. Creatively inclined fans have even produced fan art based on the game, such as a concept for a younger version of the Knight from Hollow Knight, reflecting the game’s distinctive style.

The developers behind the successor of the popular game “Hollow Knight” have given an update on its progress recently. Team Cherry’s marketing and publishing head confirmed that “Hollow Knight: Silksong” is indeed in development, moving steadily towards completion. Fans, who have been waiting for this sequel for more than half a decade, were disappointed when it didn’t appear at last year’s Gamescom and The Game Awards events. However, they remain optimistic that 2025 might finally see the release of “Silksong” on the Nintendo Switch 2.
