Hollow Knight Silksong How to Save

Hollow Knight: Silksong will likely have multiple ways to save the game. Check out all the different methods to save the game here!

How to Save Your Progress

Save at Benches

Silksong Bench

Based on gameplay footage from Gamescom 2025, benches, which are present in the first game, will still be scattered around Hollow Knight: Silksong's map. In the first Hollow Knight game, benches are used to set your respawn point, heal, and save your progress!

Quit to the Main Menu

Quit to Menu

Unless Team Cherry changes Silksong's save system, another way to save, if you are in a rush, is to quit to the main menu. The game will ask if you want to save your progress first before quitting. This will lead to you spawning at the last bench you interacted with.

Do Not Quit the Game via Alt + F4

Do note that in the first Hollow Knight game, quitting using Alt + F4 will not allow you to save your progress. Also, you will be teleported back to the last bench you interacted with when booting up the game again!
