First Ending (Hollow Knight)
Second Ending (Embrace the Void)
Third Ending (The Radiance)
Fourth Ending (Embrace the Void with Absolute Radiance)
Fifth Ending (The Delicate Flower)
First Ending (Hollow Knight): Achieved without the Void Heart. After defeating the Hollow Knight, the Knight absorbs the Infection, is sealed inside the Black Egg, and the game ends. This ending unlocks the Infected menu style.
Second Ending (Embrace the Void): Achieved with the Void Heart. Hornet intervenes during the fight, allowing the Knight to use the Dream Nail on the Hollow Knight. The Knight then battles the Radiance in her dream, defeats her, and the Infection is purged. The Black Egg vanishes, and Hornet finds the Knight's broken shell, implying the Knight has died or returned to the Void.
Third Ending (The Radiance): A variation of Embrace the Void where the player uses the Dream Nail on the Hollow Knight while Hornet is restraining them. The Knight battles the Radiance in her dream, defeats her, and the Infection is purged. The scene shows the Siblings sinking into the Abyss, finally at rest.
Fourth Ending (Embrace the Void with Absolute Radiance): Achieved by defeating Absolute Radiance at the top of the Pantheon of Hallownest without giving the Delicate Flower to the Godseeker. The Knight's shell splits open, their Shade falls into the Void, and the Void Entity defeats Absolute Radiance. Void rains down on Godhome, and the Godseeker is consumed by Void tentacles.
Fifth Ending (The Delicate Flower): Achieved by giving the Delicate Flower to the Godseeker before fighting Absolute Radiance. When a drop of Void touches the flower, it purges the Void, causing the Godseeker and the Void to vanish. The flower remains, and the ending concludes with Hornet waiting for the Knight in the Temple of the Black Egg.
