Studio MDHR<\/a> has announced two new Cuphead<\/a> projects: a brand-new, hand-animated Cuphead game early in development, and Mighty Cuphead Adventure<\/a>, an 8-bit action platformer. <\/p>\n

\u201cCraftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do here at Studio MDHR,\u201d said co-founder Chad Moldenhauer in a press release. \u201cWhen it came time to peel back the curtain and share a little bit about what we\u2019ve been up to, we couldn\u2019t imagine a more fun way to do so than with today\u2019s Special Bulletin. Crafted with the wonderful teams at Toronto\u2019s Stop Motion Department & Continue Agency, we hope the announcement will transport players to the era we\u2019ll be taking them to in our next project, Mighty Cuphead Adventure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here are the first details:<\/p>\n

First off, Studio MDHR is happy to officially confirm that development has begun on a brand-new, hand-animated Cuphead video game that will take their beloved characters on a fresh, exciting adventure. This ambitious project is still in its earliest stages of development, and the team looks forward to revealing more at a later date.<\/p>\n

On that note, a small team within Studio MDHR has been working in secret on another project: an 8-bit action platformer named Mighty Cuphead Adventure. In true Studio MDHR fashion, this game goes beyond just taking inspiration from the classics of the 1980s\u2026 it is actually built with technology of the era! That\u2019s right: Mighty Cuphead Adventure is programmed in classic Assembly Language and designed with the exacting specifications of the Sega<\/a> Master System home gaming console in mind. While the game will absolutely be compatible with modern consoles and PC<\/a>, players who want a true blast from the past will be able to experience it on a physical cartridge on the Sega Master System home gaming console.<\/p>\n

Studio MDHR will share much more about Mighty Cuphead Adventure in the months ahead, so stay tuned to their social channels for more.<\/p>\n
