Boss Guide FAQ

Now that Hollow Knight: Silksong has been released, we have confirmed over 50 boss encounters throughout the game. Our database includes all major bosses and optional encounters.

Bosses in Silksong are categorized into several difficulty levels: Easy (tutorial bosses), Normal (standard encounters), Hard (challenging fights), Very Hard (late-game bosses), and Extreme (optional super bosses). Each category represents the expected challenge level.

Many bosses in Silksong feature multiple phases, indicated by the 'Phases' field in our database. Multi-phase bosses typically change their attack patterns, gain new abilities, or transform their appearance as their health decreases.

Boss status indicates the confirmation level: 'Confirmed' means officially revealed by Team Cherry, 'Rumored' suggests community speculation based on footage, and 'Speculated' indicates theoretical bosses based on game patterns.

Yes! Use the filter panel above the boss list to narrow down bosses by location, difficulty level, status, or search for specific names. You can also combine multiple filters for more precise results.

We update our boss database whenever new official information is released by Team Cherry, including trailers, developer blogs, or gameplay demonstrations. Community-reported information is carefully verified before inclusion.
