2->--11/Aug/2019
3* Switch Exclusive Boss: [[VideoGame/{{Pikmin}} Bulborb]]
4* Xbox/PC Exclusive Boss: [[Franchise/{{Halo}} Flood Infection Form]]
5* [=PlayStation=] Exclusive Boss: [[VideoGame/{{Bugsnax}} Bunger]]

8[[WMG: The game will be LighterAndSofter than the original.]]
9There's still going to be plenty of BlackComedy, NightmareFuel, and {{Tearjerker}} moments, but overall things won't be as bleak as they were before.

12[[WMG: Some of Hornet's tools are originally made from Hallownest]]
13What if she prepared herself with these weapons before going into Pharloom? We know from the trailer that she was captured by strange bugs and had to fight her way out of the caravan. Maybe she had tools with her, but were confiscated, traded, sold, or given away by the citizens of Pharloom?
14* Hornet is shown in the Nintendo Announcement Trailer with a sawblade. Maybe she was able to access the White Palace somehow? Note that the sawblades from the first game only existed inside that Palace and nowhere else, it could be the only place where she got that inspiration from, if that sawblade tool was from Hallownest.

17[[WMG: We will encounter another Vessel]]
18we see that the Knight was not the only Vessel that somehow escaped the abyss, the broken vessel as well as numerous corpses found around the world imply plenty more escaped, and there is no reason all of them would stick around hollownest, it could potentially be a simple boss or perhaps an npc with there own quest, perhaps starting out without much personality but slowly growing and expressing itself as Hornet helps it out and shows it kindness

21[[WMG: The people of Pharloom are trying to wake up/catch the attention of a god.]]
22Due to the focus of bells and songs seen, making noise and music seem to be integral to the nation. So, much like the [[Franchise/DragonAge Church of Andraste]], they might believe that if they sing loud enough, then whatever god that may be there will listen. However, with the starting poem given, it can be inferred that if they actually ''do'' so, then they [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor might not like the result...]]
23->--28/Nov/2019

25[[WMG: One category of Hornet's tools will deal with manipulating her cloak.]]
26in the Xbox gamepass trailer we see her turn her cloak into a drill. Considering her magic deals with manipulating silk having a whole category of abilities centered around her cloak would be fitting, we could potentially have her use them as wings to double jump and/or glide, or use it like a shield.
27->--12/Jun/2021
28
29[[WMG: The Pale King will make an appearance.]]
30However, he will have a different form than in Hallownest. Perhaps he changed and left his kingdom as a means of atoning for what he had done. Or maybe, like Hornet, he was kidnapped and brought to Pharloom.
31->--16/Apr/2020
32
33[[WMG: Some of the MultipleEndings from the first game will become canon.]]
34If in case, the story of ''Silksong'' is set to take place after the events of ''Hollow Knight'', then the CuttingOffTheBranches trope will be inevitable -- some endings will be canon, and some would be eliminated:
35
36* If Hornet is [[spoiler:alive]], then that means the "[[spoiler:Sealed Siblings]]" ending from the first game becomes invalid.
37* If the Grimmchild would appear in one way or another, it could be a Continuity Nod to one of the endings from the first game's ''The Grimm Troupe'' content.
38->--5/Nov/2019
39
40[[WMG: The game will be both a Main/{{Prequel}} and Main/{{Sequel}}]]
41The first part of the game will be a prequel, then at some point during the game Hornet will travel to Hallownest. The events of the game will happen canonizing one of the endings, and then she will return to the Silk Kingdom, with it having some requisite changes that come with a TimeSkip.
42->--15/Nov/2019
43
44[[WMG: The canonical ending will be one of the ''Godmaster'' endings]]
45The events that transpire after Hornet [[spoiler:sees the Hollow Knight freed from the infection]] will serve as the tutorial for the game and lead up to her being captured and brought to Pharloom.
46->--16/Apr/2020
47
48[[WMG: The canon ending will be a mix of all of them]]
49The Knight uses godhome to train itself for the final battle but does not fully complete it and ascend to the Shadelord, before fighting and sealing the Hollow Knight along with Hornet(the hollow knight/sealed siblings) but accesses godhome as it sleeps, finishing its ascension first becoming the void entity(dream no more) to fight the radiance and then finally ascending to the voidlord(embrace the void/delicate flower) to finish it for good, which would also free Hornet who is likely in a weakened state after being sealed for an indeterminate amount of time making her an easy target to be captured.
50->--23/Feb/2021
51
52[[WMG: Team Cherry is aware of the fishing minigame meme and [[AscendedMeme is going to actually incorporate one into the game.]]]]
53We know that the game has had its fair share of feature creep, and the joke of the fishing minigame seems to be rather widespread. It’s possible that TC has caught onto it and is actually making/has actually made one.
54->--20/Aug/2023
55
56[[WMG: There's no game.]]
57The development has failed, and the gameplay footage is faked.
58->--28/Nov/2023
