Having a hard time with Hollow Knight: Silksong? Don't worry, the game has a built in cheat code to make things even harder!
Steel Soul is a harder version of the main adventure which is typically unlocked from completing the game; however, it is actually possible to play this difficulty from the beginning.
To do so, simply follow the below instructions:
- On the Main Menu navigate to "Extras" and select it
- On this screen input the following: UP, DOWN, UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT
- After the sound plays, navigate to new game
- Select Steel Soul Mode
With that, you can now play the game in its most difficult form.
What is Steel Soul Mode?
Steel Soul Mode is the hardest challenge in the game. It removes the ability to revive, with deaths resulting in a complete game over. There is no continuing at this point, but rather, you have to start all over again from the beginning. It is a playthrough that requires players to be perfect, and one simple mistake can set you back by countless hours. It is not something that's recommended to start the game with, but the option is in fact here for those who want something more.
Sadly I cannot find an original source for who discovered this cheat code, but I can say my habit of hitting UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, START failed me on this one.
