A passionate Hollow Knight fan has put together a custom-themed PC rig inspired by the highly-rated metroidvania game. Since rolling out in 2017, Hollow Knight has gone on to establish itself as one of the most popular indie titles released in the recent past.
Developed by Australian studio Team Cherry, Hollow Knight is a critically and commercially successful indie game featuring a unique art style. It revolves around the Knight, the insect-like player character who travels through various underground locations while defeating enemies on the way. Since the launch of the base game, four different Hollow Knight DLCs have been released for free, bringing new bosses, new quests, and more such in-game content for players. The latest among these expansions is 2018’s Godmaster which added new characters to the game alongside a few other things. Due to the positive reception of Hollow Knight and its DLCs, it has cultivated a dedicated fan-following over time, leading to enthusiasts finding new ways to show their love for the side-scrolling game.
