Fanmade DLC
Pale Court is an ambitious mod forHollow Knightthat adds five new boss fights, as well as new art, music, dialogue, voice acting and more. If you’re one of the bajillion people who yell “where’sHollow Knight: Silksong” during every video game livestream, maybe it’ll tide you over. There’s a trailer and download instructions below.
The boss fights are against the Five Great Knights of Hallownest, which are characters referenced in Hollow Knight - andshownas crude statues and silhouettes - but never actually met. In Pale Court, you’ll be able to use an item called the Dream Nail at specific locations in order to battle them.
Be warned: the Dream Nail is an item you won’t get until late into Hollow Knight, which means this mod is probably no use to you unless you’re already an experienced player. Although presumably youarean experienced player if you’re at all interested in a mod that adds more bosses.
To install Pale Court, you’ll need to grab a Hollow Knight mod manager. Scarab will do the trick, which you candownload an installer for from Github. Once installed, you can search in the app for “Pale Court” and click an install button. Alternatively, you canclick this linkand if you already have Scarab installed, it should start downloading. The mod creator’s recommendthis video guide to installing Hollow Knight mods, if you need extra help.
I like Hollow Knight a lot, although I’ve not got close to completing it. I recommend reading Pip’s (RPS in peace)wonderful exploration of its artandAlex Wiltshire’s making-of interview with its creators. A shame we never reviewed it.
Thanks,Games Radar.
