This is a patch that allows you to run Hollow Knight on the PS Vita.

Installation

Requires a copy of the game in order to work, you can purchase the game on Steam or GOG.com (only Windows version is supported).

First, you might want to install the .VPK using VitaShell. Don't try to launch the game, because it will crash without the neccesary files.

  • Download Hollow Knight VPK and install it.
  • Go to the Release page and download HollowKnightVitaPatch.zip.
  • Extract it.
  • Put the game's folder(../steamapps/common/Hollow Knight) inside the extracted folder (make sure there is no Config.ini file, if there is one, delete it.)
  • Launch ApplyPatch.bat and wait (may take 15-25 minutes depending on the system).
  • Let it finish and there should be a .ZIP file named HollowKnightDATA.zip.
  • Turn up VitaShell, connect your PS Vita to your PC and copy the contents of the .ZIP file (Zip file should be around 300-400MB before unpacking) over to ux0:app/HKVT12222/.
