It’s been a while since we heard from the talented team at Studio MDHR, but it’s finally back, with not one but two announcements.<\/p>\n

Firstly, the developer has officially confirmed it has begun work on a brand-new hand-animated Cuphead<\/a> video game.<\/p>\n

This new and ambitious project, which is still in its “earliest stages of development”, will take the beloved characters on a “fresh-exciting adventure”. You can expect to hear more about this next major title at a “later date”.<\/p>\n

Alongside this announcement was the reveal of the 8-bit action platformer Mighty Cuphead Adventure. This is being developed by a “small team” within Studio MDHR and “takes inspiration from the classics of the 1980s”, and is even “built with technology of the era”.<\/p>\n

“That’s right: Mighty Cuphead Adventure is programmed in classic Assembly Language and designed with the exacting specifications of the Sega Master System home gaming console in mind.”<\/p>\n

Although it is a retro game in more ways than one (with the team confirming a physical cartridge for the Sega Master System), this game will be “absolutely compatible with modern consoles”. You can expect to hear more about this title in the “months ahead”.<\/p>\n

For now, here are some screenshots and you can check out the trailer above:<\/p>\n

To celebrate these announcements, Cuphead & The Delicious Last Course<\/a> DLC is currently on sale on the eShop.<\/p>\n
