A full five years after players experienced the punishing run and gun action of Cuphead, developers Studio MDHR served up The Delicious Last Course.

Although this expansion only included six main bosses, there was nevertheless more than enough highly polished content to satisfy the hunger that fans had for more Cuphead.

Combining tough but fair gameplay with a gorgeous animation style that was inspired by classic cartoons from the 1930s, The Delicious Last Course is more of what made the base game so appetising. More than just a handful of extra bosses to fight, the quality of this expansion was just as good, if not better, than anything that players had could have expected.

While the bosses were appropriately tougher this time around, they were also some of the most memorable and impressively animated in the entire game. In addition to looking spectacular, the expansion likewise offered more ways to play, bringing new weapons and charms for players to use. The biggest change, though, was that players could now play as the more powerful Ms Chalice to get a fighting chance in the harder fights without making things too easy.

With still no official word on Cuphead 2, The Delicious Last Course might be the closest thing to a sequel that fans will get.
