112% Completion Checklist

Hollow Knight 112% Checklist Overview

The checklist is located below this introductory text.

This is the interactive checklist for 112% Completion in Hollow Knight. Track your completion progress using this auto-save checklist.

This 112% Hollow Knight checklist is in optimal progression order - locations are ordered to be as convenient as possible, with the exception of the Charms table, which is in the exact order of in-game inventory for better orientation. Every item required for 112% features a screenshot of its location.

112% Completion Key Information

Very Important! Note that "112% Completion" is a specific arbitrary list of requirements you must match to get the pure completion-related achievement. It DOES NOT contain a large portion of things to collect or beat in the game, but it is relevant for the trophy Pure Completion. The trophies "Completion", "Speed Completion" and "Steel Heart" only require 100% of items, which means you don't have to acquire any 12 of the items of this checklist to obtain them.

The game contains much more than the items in this list, which is specifically relevant to 100% and 112% achievements. We strongly recommend visiting our Hollow Knight 100% Completion Hub to see everything you can complete for true 100% Completion.

As an example, the game has 35+ unique Bosses, but only 24 of them are required for 112%. 112% also doesn't require any collectibles, beating end-game challenges or completing the Hunter's Journal, which should be done for true Hollow Knight 100% Completion.

How is 112% counted?

It is pretty complicated. Some items count for 1%, some items count for 2%. The Mask Shards and Vessel Fragments are not needed, but full Masks and Soul Vessels count for 1% each. But, for convenience, we list everything you need to actually collect.

This is why the Progress number you see below can only reach 100%. If you have all items in the checklist and the progress is displaying 100%, you have successfully attained 112% Completion.

Related Checklists for 112%

Some of the requirements for 112% are complicated. You will also need to:

save all Grubs for the Grubberfly's Elegy Charm - Use All Grubs Checklist
find all Pale Ores for all Nail Upgrades - Use All Pale Ores Checklist

For true completion of the game, take a look at also collecting All Bosses, All Charm Notches, All Wanderer's Journals, All Hallownest Seals, All Arcane Eggs, All King's Idols, All Keys and All Hunter's Journal entries.
