Hive Knight comes from Hollow Knight, the 2017 action adventure game by Team Cherry, where he guards The Hive and its queen as a loyal, bee-themed boss. His aggressive vocalisations became a standout part of the fight, and players clipped the Bzzahhhh shout to reuse outside the game. Shared on gaming soundboards and in boss fight edits, the cry turned into a shorthand for an insectoid charge or a frantic attack, keeping it popular with Hollow Knight fans long after the original encounter.
