Hollow Knight Silksong map guide

So, you’re in Pharloom and totally lost. We’ve been there, don’t worry! But, it sounds like you need a Hollow Knight Silksong map, and we’re here to help. To completely unlock the map of all the areas, it might take you a while – and a lot of rosary beads – so we’ve laid out the cost and location of each piece below.

Silksong is already one of our favorite indie games of the year, and was our most anticipated new Switch game, too. For some more help getting through it, check out our Hollow Knight Silksong bosses guide.

How to buy a Silksong map in Hollow Knight

To get your hands on Silksong maps and find your way around, you need to locate Shakra the merchant in each area. For the vast majority of areas, they’re hanging around somewhere, with map pieces for sale – and some handy extras, but we’ll cover that in a bit.

You can find each map piece in the corresponding area – for instance, the Far Fields map is sold by Shakra in the Far Fields. However, in some areas, you can find the map piece without paying for it. This includes Weavesnest, The Slab, the Underworks, and Cogwork Core, where the map piece is in one of the rooms.

The currency they trade in is rosary beads, which you can find in some areas or get from defeating enemies.
