Traditional hand drawn cel animation, watercolor backgrounds, and original jazz recordings.Ĭuphead truly is a playable cartoon that feels plucked from the golden era of animation. Inspired by cartoons of the 1930s, Cuphead’s visuals and audio are meticulously created with the same techniques of the era. It’s no exaggeration to say there really isn’t any other experience like this worldwide phenomenon from developer Studio MDHR. Presenting…the all-cartoon Wondergame, Cuphead!! In this classic run and gun action game, play as brothers Cuphead or Mugman (in single player or local co-op) as you traverse strange worlds and take on massive, screen-filling bosses to earn your souls back from The Devil himself! Our cup truly runneth over.Come one, come all, to witness an interactive entertainment spectacle for the ages. We'll have to keep a watchful eye on Studio MDHR's social media to hear more about these extra goodies shortly. Chalice, who looks like the sassiest cup I ever did see.Īlthough Studio MDHR stated it would be busy putting 'pencils to paper' to prepare the DLC, the developer also mentioned in the post it still has 'a couple little tricks up sleeve before the end of 2018'. The DLC will introduce a brand new playable character called Ms. This also isn't the last we'll see of the game, as a new DLC for Cuphead called The Delicious Last Course is due to be released in 2019 - although the exact date is yet to be confirmed. The run and gun game, which was praised for its unique hand-painted 1930s style animations, originally sold over 1m units in its first two weeks - so this latest update is perhaps unsurprising. To celebrate this achievement, the game is on sale on Xbox and Steam - so if you haven't yet put yourself through the pain of a Cuphead boss battle, you can now do it at a discount.

In a blog post, developer Studio MDHR announced it has shifted an incredible three million copies in the 10 months since Cuphead's launch.

It's been nearly a year since Cuphead's release, and in that time lots of people have found the game to be just their cup of tea.
