Hollow Knight: Silksong is now available as a physical edition on PS5, Xbox Series X and Switch 2 (shipping from November 10, 2026), but the free Sea of Sorrow expansion is not on the disc or cartridge, and the manual only labels it “Coming Soon”. Team Cherry had announced it for 2026.

The facts in short:
- Fangamer US prices (checked November 11, 2026): $39 on PS5 and Xbox Series X, $45 on Switch 2, with a 32-page manual and a poster.
- Fangamer: Sea of Sorrow “is not included on game media but will be available to download for free”.
- Team Cherry (December 15, 2025): Sea of Sorrow is “coming free for all players next year”. No date or delay announced as of November 11, 2026.
- According to photos of the manual reported by Push Square and GamesRadar: “free content packs” and Sea of Sorrow as the “first giant expansion”.
Questions for players:
- Physical or digital: does a boxed copy still make sense if the expansion will have to be downloaded anyway?
- Will you wait for a possible “complete” edition with Sea of Sorrow on the disc, or buy now?
- Sea of Sorrow in 2026 or 2027: what's your bet, and does Team Cherry's silence worry you?
- Which free content would you like most: new areas, new bosses, a new challenge mode?
