Team Cherry Games

Team Cherry is an independent video game developer based in Adelaide, South Australia. The studio is best known for creating the critically acclaimed 'Hollow Knight,' a stylized 2D action-adventure game. Founded by Ari Gibson and William Pellen, the company remains a boutique indie studio that handles its own creative direction and production. Unlike many developers that are acquired by larger conglomerates, Team Cherry has maintained its independence, allowing it to have full control over its intellectual properties and development timelines. The team primarily develops their software in Australia, though digital distribution occurs globally through various platforms like Steam, Nintendo eShop, and PlayStation Store. Their work is characterized by handcrafted art styles and intricate world-building, cementing their reputation in the global gaming industry.
