Tips for Completion

To reach Completion, every Tool, Crest, Mask Shard, Spool Fragment, Silk Heart, and map must be collected. Missing even one flea will prevent Fleafriend, so careful tracking is required. Exploration with new powers is key, as many secrets stay locked behind progression abilities.

Hardest Achievements

The toughest trophies are Speedrunner, Speed Completion, Steel Soul, and Steel Heart. Speedrunner allows under five hours to finish, while Speed Completion requires 100 percent in under thirty. Steel Soul permits no deaths, and Steel Heart layers 100 percent completion on top of permadeath.

Start with Speed Completion after your first playthrough, then attempt Speedrunner. Steel Soul and Steel Heart should be saved for last.

Final Blurb

The Hollow Knight Silksong achievements and trophies list covers every aspect of the game. Boss fights, hidden quests, collectibles, and survival runs all play a part. To unlock all 52, expect multiple runs and a mastery of Hornet’s combat style.
