You ask yourself, „Where to go in Silksong?” Here are some good options

by

Some individuals are still finding it hard to believe that Hollow Knight Silksong was launched on September 4, 2025, but this fact remains. In line with its metroidvania game genre, encounters with bosses like Moorwing and Savage Beastfly significantly impact the gameplay, along with exploration, unearthing secrets, and following hidden paths. Given that even seasoned players might feel disoriented due to the complexity of this game, it’s advisable to get familiarized with the recommended starting points. Luckily, there is helpful information available here on the optimal visiting order for various locations.

Find the 1st boss in Silksong – Moss Mother

As you embark on your journey through the enchanting Moss Grotto, don’t forget to take the right-sided, concealed path early on for collecting Shell Shards. Additionally, keep in mind that at the peak of this chamber lies an adversary, vanquishing which will reward you with a Beast Shard.

First, move to your left, hop onto the platforms as you go. Once you reach the top, veer right. Just be cautious not to slip into a hole and find yourself back where we began. Following the defeat of Moss Mother, make your way to the Ruined Chapel, then turn right towards the initial town, Bone Bottom.

Acquire Silkspear and then defeat Bell Beast

To get to the Bell Beast boss, leave Bone Bottom through its right exit and make your way towards The Marrow. Defeating this boss will give you the ability for quicker travel between locations. But first, you’ll need to acquire the Silkspear skill. You can find it in Mosshome, specifically on the top floor, right in the heart of the biome. Look for an object with a big head and three sets of eyes to obtain this skill.

The Bell Beast can be found atop The Marrow on the right-hand side. To reach this boss, you should exit Mosshome and head in a rightward direction. That’s where you’ll find the Bell Beast trapped. Use your Silkspear skill to free it and initiate the battle.

Avoid Skull Ant, instead find Swift Step skill

Deeper in The Marrow, you might come across a challenging mini-boss known as Skull Ant. While it’s theoretically possible to beat him without any extra abilities, it’s certainly a tough challenge. You can find him on the upper floor of The Marrow, situated on the right side, above the bench on the farthest end.

Rather than engaging him immediately, it’s advisable to first acquire Swift Step, a skill located to the right of The Marrow in Deep Docks, which is further ahead. Once you spot the signs indicating Deep Docks and notice the signpost with the bench, veer to the right and then climb up. Activate the shortcut by pulling the lever, then leap to the top and maintain a course to the right. When you reach the top, proceed left until you’re confronted by a group of enemies in a confined arena.

Upon victory, head to the left, descend, and continue moving left. You’ll find Swift Step here, which will help you face the Skull Ant. The subsequent location beyond the Skull Ant is challenging at present, so if you’re not ready, consider postponing your journey there for now.

Investigate the lower floor of Deep Docks and fight against Lace

As a gamer, here’s how I’d rephrase that:

“Alright, gamers! The final leg of our journey leads us to Lace, the next boss. She’s hidden deep within the lower-middle section of Deep Docks. To reach her, first, find the central lever on your map and pull it to open a passageway leading downwards.

As you venture deeper, veer to the right. Before long, you’ll find yourself in an arena swarming with enemies sporting teapots atop their heads. Defeat them, and the upper part of this location will open, revealing platforms that you’ll need to hop onto.

Once you reach the platform area, you’ll see a bench, a shopkeeper resembling a blacksmith, and Lace will be on the top floor, to the right. If you’ve unlocked Swift Step, you can leap up to hit the lever that unlocks the passageway leading to her.

Here we conclude a promising commencement in Hollow Knight Silksong! These guidelines should help keep you from getting disoriented, and uncover an essential section of the area. Best of luck on your journey!
