Silksong Save System on Xbox Explained: Progression Mechanics & Tips

Silksong’s save system on Xbox is centered around deliberate, location-based saves rather than quick-save convenience. If you’re wondering how your progress is secured, the short answer is this: you save at Benches, and you respawn at the last Bench you used. Autosaves exist for significant milestones, but they don’t replace Benches for reliable progression or respawn points. That distinction matters when budgeting resources, attempting a boss, or pausing for the night. Below, we break down how Benches, autosaves, death, and key resources interact on Xbox—plus practical tips to avoid losing time or currency, based on public previews and community documentation of the sequel to Hollow Knight starring Hornet as the protagonist and explorer of Pharloom Hollow Knight: Silksong overview.
