About this sound

Hornet's short battle cry 'Un, hegale' from Hollow Knight, a sharp voiced shout used for boss fights, duels and dramatic gaming moments online.

This is Hornet's brief combat voice line from Hollow Knight, delivered as a fast, sharp shout of 'Un, hegale' during her boss encounters. The delivery is high, clipped and determined, with the syllables snapping out in just over a second before combat resumes. It captures Hornet's agile, no-nonsense fighting style, all precision and pressure rather than brute force. Dropped into a video, the line instantly signals a challenge has started, turning an ordinary duel, dodge or counterattack into a tense boss-fight moment that Hollow Knight fans recognise immediately.

Pro tip

Place the shout right on the first lunge or weapon swing, not before it, so the syllables land with the impact. Keep game audio low underneath, avoid reverb, and do not loop it, one clean hit reads as a real Hornet challenge.

How people use it

Drop it when a Hollow Knight boss fight begins.
Use it for a sudden duel challenge in gameplay edits.
Add it before a fast dodge or counterattack lands.
Play it when an opponent confidently enters the arena.

It comes from Hollow Knight, the 2017 game by Team Cherry. Hornet, the needle-wielding protector of Hallownest, uses clipped cries like this during her duels with the Knight, which is why fans associate the shout with the start of a tough boss fight.
