Silksong is all about challenges and secrets, but mods can take the experience to another level. Once you’ve learned how to install Silksong mods, the real fun begins with the variety of options available. Having spent hours exploring Pharloom, you’re probably looking for the best Hollow Knight Silksong mods to try. To help, we’ve gathered some of the most useful and entertaining ones in this guide.
Best Silksong Mods You Should Download Now
We have included all mods for Silksong from Nexusmods. You can download all the mods from our list for free. The Hollow Knight Silksong mods are in no ranking order. Read the description and install if it fits your needs. Moreover, we are not recommending the Silksong invincible mod as it will take away the fun of the game completely.
1. RenoDX – HDR
The first mod worth mentioning enhances Silksong’s already stunning visuals, making the game feel like a premium upgrade. While the base game looks phenomenal, this mod adds true HDR support to bring out richer colors and deeper contrasts. If you want Silksong at its absolute best visually, this is the mod to install.
2. Rebirth Anywhere
Whether you admit it or not, dying and respawning at a bench you saved nearly an hour ago can get frustrating fast in Hollow Knight Silksong. Especially if you are stuck at the Bell Beast boss.
Thankfully, there’s a mod inspired by Elden Ring’s Stakes of Marika that fixes this problem. It allows you to respawn right where you died or just before a big fight, saving time and letting you jump back into the action immediately.
3. SilkSong Shadow Dash
When I first unlocked Dash and Sprint in Silksong, I thought it would let me slip past those heavy-hitting charges with ease. Sadly, the default dash feels more defensive than evasive. The Shadow Dash mod fixes this by making you invulnerable while dashing, turning it into a true offensive tool. If you enjoy fighting up close, this mod makes every dodge feel faster, riskier, and a lot more fun.
4. No Vignette and Zoom Adjust
While these mods are created by two separate modders, they can improve your visual experience in the best way possible in Hollow Knight Silksong. One of the things that feels a little too much while playing the game is the vignette and close-in camera. These mods will help you get rid of the vignette and adjust the zoom. Just use these mods together.
5. No Double Damage
Silksong does not have difficulty settings, which is a sad part of the game for casual players. Don’t worry; this mode will save the day for you. Using the No Double Damage mod will ensure you only take 1 mask of damage, regardless of how heavy the attack is.
6. Increase Player Damage
Another mod that can make you feel like the difficulty is now much easier is the Increase Player Damage mod. In the normal game, you must upgrade the Needle to deal relevant damage to the enemies. That is why this mod can be a lifesaver for you.
7. Double Silk
Speaking of lifesavers. The Double Silk mod literally adds another silk to your arsenal. That means more healing and more ability spamming. Just don’t regret overusing it.
8. Always Have Compass
A QOL mod that will make exploration much easier is the compass. No need to find the map lady after struggling through two levels. This mod will show your position on the map always. Install Always Have Compass and let the path guide you to the Citadel.
9. ShowDamage HealthBar
One QOL option that should already be in the base game is the health bar. Yes, in Hollow Knight Silksong, there is no health bar. So, fix that by using the ShowDamage HealthBar mod. It will also show the damage you deal to enemies.
10. Infinite Rosary
As I said before, no invincible mods. But if you want your grind to feel rewarding without the frustration of losing progress, there’s a neat option. The Infinite Rosary mod gives you 1000 Rosaries every time you press F3. With that, you can unlock all the Bellways for fast travel in Silksong or buy Crafting Kit without worrying about running dry.
