Enemies in Hollow Knight Silksong refer to the many hostiles that will attempt to obstruct Hornet on her journey. Enemies are comprised of various creatures and inhabitants of Pharloom, each with their own distinct features, behaviors, and movesets, providing varying levels of challenge for the protagonist. Defeating Enemies is an important element of progression in Hollow Knight: Silksong, and this page will be updated with more information as it becomes available.
- See Bosses for powerful enemies fought in key encounters that feature more involved mechanics and a much higher level of challenge.
Enemies in Hollow Knight Silksong
Silksong Hunter's Journal - Bestiary
The Hunter’s Journal is a bestiary tool that records every enemy Hornet encounters across Pharloom. As you defeat enemies, the journal gradually fills with lore, combat tips, and strategic notes, rewarding exploration and mastery of the game’s creatures.
It registers each unique enemy you defeat. The first kill reveals a basic entry, while repeated kills unlock deeper lore notes and fighting strategies. Completing the journal by registering at least 100 different enemies rewards you with the Hunter’s Mark, a badge of honor representing mastery and dedication to hunting.
You can access the Hunter’s Journal from the game menu at any time to review entries of enemies encountered.
