New character for Hollow Knight: Silksong discovered

Internet detectives have managed to discover a new character for Hollow Knight: Silksong, and it all stems from a riddle disseminated by a Team Cherry playtester.

Matthew Griffin, a playtester/marketer with Team Cherry, shared a riddle via the Team Cherry discord, and fans got to work on it right away. The solution ended up being "huntress," which is most likely the name of this new character. The riddle's solution opened up a ZIP file that shared the artwork above, as well as the following dialog and profile.

“Ssssppiiiderr, Your ssstench is strange yet similar... Have you come bearing the organs of others? Or would you offer your own? Gift your sshell's warm insidess as ssweet feast for my brood'sss birth-meal?”

A towering old predator, awaiting her children to come. Though her attention is fixed on her task, she seems to know much about the waning state of Pharloom, scorning the Citadel above and the hapless pilgrims that make their ascent towards it.

That's all there is to share on the character for now, but it's likely Team Cherry will come out with an official reveal in the near future.
