SILKSONG PATCH 5 TRADITIONAL CHINESE, GERMAN UPDATES & MORE
Silksong’s Patch 5 (version 1.0.30000) is now live for players on PC platforms and coming soon to consoles.
Patch 5 is intended as the last significant update before Silksong’s upcoming major expansion: Sea of Sorrow. The patch contains standard bug fixes and refinements, and 2 major language updates worth mentioning:
Traditional Chinese is now available in the game, with the script provided by craft (indienova). Craft worked closely with us to ensure lore accuracy throughout their work, and coordinated with Team Cart Fix (who provided the Simplified Chinese translation) for consistency on critical elements between the versions.
Silksong’s German script has received significant updates from talented translator Tobias Gut, who was extensively involved in the original game and its expansions. Partially, this task has been about clarifying narrative elements to better align with the English intent, but also working to synchronise the style and tone with the original game (Hollow Knight). Please note: These updates include some proper noun changes (eg area names), which we recognise can be jarring for players who have become accustomed to the release text, or are referencing online guides.
As always, if you encounter any issues in your language of choice, please reach out to us via the Team Cherry Bug Report Form
