Cuphead DLC Reaction

The highly anticipated Cuphead DLC, Delicious Last Course, has finally arrived, and fans are excited to dive back into the challenging world of Cuphead. Art director Chad Moldenhauer confirmed that the team made a significant effort to make the bosses bigger and more elaborate, with some boss phases having more hand-drawn frames than entire boss fights in the original game.

One notable example is Mortimer's second phase, where he transforms into a snowman and constantly changes forms while moving around. The level of animation and detail is impressive, making for a visually stunning experience. Mechanically, Mortimer's fight is straightforward at first, but things get more challenging in his last phase, when the floor falls away and players must engage in a platforming juggling act in mid-air.

The new bosses introduced in Delicious Last Course are equally exciting. For instance, an ice wizard uses snow and a whale to pummel players with icy cruelty. According to Chad Moldenhauer, her abilities have some limitations, such as requiring a charm slot to use them. However, Studio MDHR promises that her movement tricks will be essential against the new bosses.

The DLC also introduces Chalice, a playable character who becomes available after either Cuphead or Mugman equips her special cookie charm. Players can choose to use their parry attack on the cookie before it burns out, launching a powerful turret at enemies and dealing massive damage. Her EX shot creates a spinning, planet-shaped turret that fires homing bullets, making it an excellent choice for newbie players.

Additionally, Crackshot is a new weapon that shoots homing red bullets towards the nearest enemy. The peek into the new stock suggests interesting strategies for taking down bosses.

Overall, Cuphead's DLC reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, with fans excited to dive back into the challenging world of Cuphead and experience new bosses, characters, and gameplay mechanics.
