As such, all Kickstarter backers for the original Hollow Knight from the $10AUD and above tiers can choose to receive their free copy either on PC or on the Switch. That said, Team Cherry also noted that the Nintendo Switch has become the platform of choice for many people, not least for their own game. “As a backer, your support made this happen, so you’ll of course be receiving your copy of Hollow Knight: Silksong 100% free.” “Thanks to the incredible support of players and Kickstarter backers, what started out as a tiny game jam idea has become a game bought and played by over 2.8 million people,” the developers wrote.
