Hollow Knight: Silksong is Team Cherry's upcoming game following Hollow Knight.
I will play the game and engage with others about the game before deciding. This market resolves based on what I believe.
If I am less than 90% confident about which way to resolve / about whether I can use the label 'prequel' for this game after having played it, this market will resolve N/A.
If it ends up being the case that a part of the story is set prior to the events of the first game and another part is set post, then I will use my discretion about what 'the spirit' of the game is. If there are significant prequel and sequel elements, or if I am not confident, the N/A clause applies.
I will close trading on this market before the release, if release date is announced.
NOTE: I once held shares in this market, but have sold all of them in view of a conflict of interest. I will no longer trade in this market.
There are quite a few traders on this market now, and I'd like to be as fair as possible. I've sold all my shares, and won't be trading.
Since Team Cherry doesn't want to take a position on which Hollow Knight endings are canon and many of those endings directly involve Hornet, it would be easiest for them to make Silksong a prequel.
Please don't post any comments regarding resolution after Silksong is released! I would prefer to avoid spoilers. I'll resolve it eventually, rest assured :)
If I've failed to resolve for 6 months after release, comment or request admin resolution.
Please remember that resolution of this market may alert you to the correct answer after Silksong releases! If you consider this a spoiler, mute/unwatch the market. I'll wait a while to resolve after release, to give time.
