Hollow Knight: Silksong now compatible with DualSense Edge controllers
Hollow Knight: Silksong version 1.0.28891 is now live. The latest patch for Team Cherry’s game, released Monday, adds DualSense Edge controller compatibility, along with improved controller support on Mac, and a feature that automatically pauses the game if a controller disconnects, preventing moments of frustration due to signal loss or dead batteries.
Additionally, the new update features some bug fixes. Several issues resulting in players falling or being dragged out of bounds have been fixed, and multiple bugs found in boss fights and other enemy encounters have been remedied.
Hollow Knight: Silksong‘s 1.0.28891 patch notes are listed in full below:
- Added support for DualSense Edge controllers.
- Improved support for various controllers on Mac.

Though the update does have a few balance changes, they’re minimal. The update itself is small enough that developer Team Cherry didn’t even post it on the developer’s blog, just the game’s Steam page, so players who are still hoping for more balance changes may have to wait until the next patch to see if their hopes will be fulfilled.
