For players struggling with the high difficulty of Hollow Knight: Silksong, which was released on the 4th, various 'easy mode' mods have begun to be distributed.

A mod that has recently gained significant popularity is the damage reduction mod. Adopted by over 22,000 users on Nexus Mods, this mod ensures that players do not take more than one mask of damage from enemy or boss attacks. It is highly favored as it allows players to maintain the game's inherent challenge while ensuring stability. Additionally, a mod providing a persistent compass effect to track player position on complex maps has also garnered interest from over 20,000 users.

Numerous mods have also been identified that help players equip combat accessories more freely. Examples include a rosary magnet mod that indirectly increases rosary collection, and mods that allow players to instantly obtain 1,000 rosaries with the press of a button. Teleportation mods for users who find navigation difficult, as well as bench-removal mods that allow for free switching of skills and tools, have also been released.

In addition, mods that display enemy health bars and add invincibility to dashes to maximize movement convenience have been released. 'God mode' options for users who have given up on clearing the game are also appearing one after another.

Meanwhile, players who have completed the Hollow Knight: Silksong ending can unlock 'Steel Soul Mode' by pressing 'Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right' in the extra menu. Steel Soul Mode is a permadeath mode where resurrection is impossible, and all data is lost upon death, requiring more cautious gameplay.
