The player must dodge and jump over its many obstacles and enemies in order to reach the end of each level. The game has a number of different levels and an epic storyline.

The game features a mysterious protagonist (the player-character) traveling through the Hallownest, a bug-infested kingdom. The game has a narrator telling the story of the world and giving tips on how to play. The player-character can upgrade their abilities and buy new ones with "Souls", small, glowing bugs that it can collect by defeating enemies.

Hollow Knight is a 2D side-scrolling, Metroidvania-style game with some major platforming elements. By killing all of the enemies in an area, players are able to progress to the next area.
