Hollow Knight Silksong Trophies: At a Glance
There are a total of 34 trophies, including Platinum. They’re split up as follows:
- 1 Platinum
- 5 Gold trophies
- 12 Silver trophies
- 16 Bronze trophies
Special Challenges on the Way to Platinum
Going for Platinum in Hollow Knight Silksong is no easy task. One of the toughest challenges will be defeating the boss “Great Mother Silk” in three different ways:
- As the Weaver Queen (binding her power)
- Using the Soul Snare
- While cursed
On top of that, you’ll need to fully explore Pharloom and collect every key item for 100% completion. The speedrun challenges (finishing the game in under 5 hours or reaching 100% in under 30 hours) are also likely to be a major hurdle for many players.

The world itself feels more diverse, with dense forests, vibrant colors, and atmospheric lighting and sound design creating an inviting yet dangerous environment.
With this trophy guide, you’ll be well-prepared to take on every challenge in Hollow Knight Silksong and secure that hard-earned Platinum trophy. Good luck on your journey through Pharloom!
