Where to Find the Silk Soar in Hollow Knight Silksong

The Silk Soar location is tied to Act 3: Abyss, a secret chapter unlocked after completing the Silk and Soul quest. Once you gain entry into the Abyss, follow these steps:

1. Reach Weavenest Absolom

   • Start at the lower floor bench inside the Abyss.

   • Move eastward and climb the upper platforms.

   • At the locked eastern door, use the Needolin skill (previously used for the Silkspeed Anklets) to open the path.

2. Proceed into Weavenest Absolom

• After opening the door, continue into Weavenest Absolom.
• Inside, you’ll encounter a unique structure that contains the Silk Soar ability.
• Interact with it to permanently unlock Super Jump.

How to Use Silk Soar (Super Jump) in Hollow Knight Silksong

The Silk Soar ability works differently from Hornet’s regular jumps. It requires charging and consumes a portion of Silk energy each time you perform it.

Controls for Silk Soar (Super Jump):

• PC: Down Arrow + S
• PlayStation 5: Left Stick Down + L2
• Xbox: Left Stick Down + LT
• Nintendo Switch: Left Stick Down + ZL

How it works:

• Hold the movement stick down + Harpoon skill button to charge.
• Release to launch Hornet vertically, soaring much higher than a standard jump.

Why Silk Soar Is Important

The Silk Soar ability in Silksong is crucial for Act 3 exploration. Many sections of Weavenest Absolom and the Abyss are designed specifically around this movement upgrade. It also enables you to backtrack through Pharloom, opening shortcuts and hidden routes that were once completely out of reach.
