by Muhammad Ali Bari

The download size for Team Cherry’s latest Metroidvania video game, Hollow Knight: Silksong, has been revealed.

PlayStationSize on Twitter/X has revealed the download size for the PS4 and PS5 versions of Hollow Knight: Silksong, courtesy of recent database entries made to PlayStation servers. Meanwhile, the game’s Xbox, Nintendo, and Steam store pages have been updated with the respective download size for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The upcoming Metroidvania title will take up a very modest amount of storage space across all platforms. That said, those with limited available storage on the internal drive are advised to clear up some space in advance. It goes without saying that storage expansion options are available for those who need them.
