Suffice to say that when we hear about Cuphead, we open our ears wide: Studio MDHR’s game is a small nugget of its kind which has marked more than one with a hot iron. There are many reasons: his sublime artistic style in the cartoon of the 20s has a lot to do with it, his zany universe seductive too… not to mention a formidable requirement quite enjoyable or a welcome co-op mode.
An ode to the platformer and the 2D action of yesteryear, intelligent and meticulous which we therefore keep fond memories: this should motivate you to launch the adventure if it was not already done. And if you are one of those who have eaten Cuphead before and still want it, know that its extension has just got a release date and a new trailer at the Game Awards 2024.
Announced in 2019, The Delicious Last Course DLC has unfortunately been postponed several times. But this time, it’s the right one (well, we imagine it): the release has just been confirmed for June 30, 2024. Certainly, it is in six months but this time, we are definitively fixed.
Here are the words of the developers themselves, to qualify this piece of additional journey:
While The Delicious Last Course is the sequel to the adventures of Cuphead and Mugman, it is also the end of the story that began at Devil’s Casino one fateful day. In Studio MDHR style, we don’t want to do anything with this final chapter other than our best work. During development, we motivated ourselves to use everything we learned from the creation of Cuphead to increase the quality of The Delicious Last Course in terms of animation, design and music.
We leave you to enjoy from this deliberately old-school trailer, which will make the mouth water of the community. Ready to do it again?
