How many Benches are in Hollow Knight: Silksong?

There are 80 total Benches in Hollow Knight: Silksong, including 35 Benches in Act 1, 36 Benches in Act 2, and 9 Benches in Act 3. Benches are essential checkpoints where you can save your progress, heal, and restore Silk if you have the Sylphsong ability.

What do Benches do in Silksong?

Benches are essential checkpoints throughout Hollow Knight: Silksong. Sitting on a Bench replenishes Hornet's health and saves the game. If you've acquired the Sylphsong ability by Binding Eva, sitting on a Bench will also restore your Silk. Some benches require Rosaries to activate, while others are part of Bell Shrines or appear after defeating bosses.

Do I need to find all Benches for 100% completion?

Yes, finding all 80 Benches is necessary for 100% completion in Silksong. Benches are essential checkpoints that help you navigate Pharloom and the Citadel, and they're required for full game completion. Use this checklist alongside the All Achievements Checklist and 100% Completion Checklist to track your progress.

What is Sylphsong and how do I get it?

Sylphsong is a powerful permanent ability in Hollow Knight: Silksong that provides infinite Silk regeneration while sitting on Benches in just a few seconds. You obtain Sylphsong by binding Eva after reaching 32 unlocked Tool slots across all Crests by spending Memory Lockets. This ability is essential for 100% Completion.

How do I use the All Benches checklist?

Our All Benches Checklist features auto-save functionality - your progress is automatically saved locally in your browser with no login required. Simply check off Benches as you find them, and your progress will be preserved when you return. The checklist organizes all 80 Benches by Act and orders them by natural player progression.

Do some Benches disappear in Silksong?

Yes, some benches are temporary and will disappear when NPCs or caravans move. For example, the Marrow Flea Caravan Bench, Greymoor Flea Caravan Bench, and Blasted Steps Flea Caravan Bench are part of the Flea Caravan and will disappear when the caravan moves. The Greymoor Shakra Bench and Mount Fay Shakra Bench disappear when Shakra moves.
