Hollow Knight gets a patch adding 21:9 & 16:10 resolution support and more

Team Cherry have given the original Hollow Knight a fresh coat of paint with a new patch out now to improve various parts of the classic metroidvania. While most of their focus is on Silksong, they have just made various improvements for modern consoles which no doubt is where most of this work came from.

Here’s what’s changed:

• Added support for 21:9 & 16:10 resolutions.
• Game now pauses while in inventory menus.
• Upgraded to Unity Input System for broader controller support (original input system is still available, if preferred, via Options>Controller>Advanced Settings)
• Added dithering effect, and dithering options, to reduce colour banding.
• Fixed a softlock in City of Tears Grub room.
• Reduced Grey Prince Zote’s stagger bounce height.
• Updated Sly’s Great Slash collider to closer match visual.
• Salubra’s Blessing now deactivates after reaching max Soul.
• Map panning is now smoother.
• Various performance improvements.
• Various smaller fixes and tweaks.

Love seeing older games continue to see improvements like this, especially great for people still discovering it and yet to play through for the first time.
