RANKED: Every Single Game in the ‘Hollow Knight’ Franchise

The Hollow Knight franchise is one of the most iconic in all of video games, let alone indie games. When the first game in the series was released in 2017, the refreshing take on the metroidvania genre took the gaming world by storm, inspiring a massive fandom and a slew of similar looking games. But how do all of Team Cherry’s released Hollow Knight games stack up against each other? Let’s take a dive into Hallownest and do the difficult work of ranking every single Hollow Knight game.

#1 — Hollow Knight (2017)

Well, I think just about everyone expected to see this one in the top spot. How can you talk about the Hollow Knight games without the 2017 classic that kicked off the whole series? It’s pretty crazy to look back, all these years later, and see where it all went. But at the end of the day, the original Hollow Knight is still a masterpiece the likes of which has not been reproduced by any metroidvania indie game. Who knows when Team Cherry’s next release will be, but hopefully it can be as cool and fun as Hollow Knight!

And that’s our ranking of every single Hollow Knight game. Be sure to share this article with your own rankings to see how they compare and contrast with ours!
