10 DLC Bosses Harder Than The Main Game

Despite its charming rubber-hose animation, Cuphead is a mean and unforgiving game where every new boss you fight is tougher than the last. When you finally beat the final fight with the Dice King and the Devil, you feel like the game has thrown everything it possibly could at you, but somehow, you made it!

Well, don't celebrate too soon! There's also the DLC, the Delicious Last Course. And in true Cuphead fashion, its final boss, Chef Saltbaker, shows that things can always get worse.

Right off the bat, Saltbaker outdoes every boss in the game by preventing you from fighting him in "simple mode". You either face him at his true power, or you don't.

And, oh boy, is his true power just the worst!

Saltbaker has four distinct phases, that ramp up in difficulty. From summoning storms of pepper and salt, to becoming a sentient heart chaotically darting across the arena, it's a genuinely soul-draining experience as you try to memorise everything and keep up.

Saltbaker's ultimate plan is to use your soul to make a devilish pastry that can bend the world to his will, so whilst this should be an "ultimate test", few players made it through alive.
