lo Studio MDHR e l’editore iam8bit, con la distribuzione di Skybound Games, hanno pubblicato un nuovo fantastico trailer che illustra le edizioni fisiche di Cuphead.
Le affascinanti curiosità delle edizioni fisiche possono essere viste nel trailer:
“Un’edizione fisica di Cuphead è qualcosa che ci entusiasma da molto tempo”, ha dichiarato Maja
Moldenhauer, direttore dello Studio MDHR. “Gran parte della nostalgia che ha alimentato la progettazione
di Cuphead è incentrata sulla meravigliosa esperienza tattile di prendere il gioco che si ama dallo
scaffale, aprire la custodia e tuffarsi in una nuova sfida o in una grande avventura.
Non c’è niente di
simile e non potremmo essere più entusiasti dei team di iam8bit e Skybound per averci aiutato a portare
Cuphead nelle mani dei giocatori, con la stessa cura meticolosa e la stessa maestria con cui abbiamo
realizzato il gioco stesso. In un anno pieno di emozioni qui allo Studio MDHR, non riesco davvero a
pensare a un modo migliore per concludere le cose se non con questa uscita”.
La versione fisica standard di Cuphead includerà l’espansione DLC “The Delicious Last Course”, sei carte
collezionabili Cuphead funnies, una tessera di iscrizione al Cuphead Club e una bellissima grafica interna
nella custodia.
Sono passati cinque anni da quando i giocatori hanno esplorato per la prima volta le Inkwell Isles con
Cuphead e Mugman. Dalla sua uscita nel 2017, Cuphead è diventato un fenomeno indie con una miriade
di prodotti e una serie animata Netflix di recente uscita.
Studio MDHR, iam8bit e Skybound Games sono
entusiasti di continuare a costruire sull’eredità di Cuphead, con alcuni prodotti speciali che i fan di tutto il
mondo potranno possedere attraverso l’edizione fisica.

About Studio MDHR
Studio MDHR is an independent video game developer that exists to surprise and delight our players!
Founded in Canada by brothers Chad and Jared Moldenhauer based on their shared love of retro arcade
action and vintage cartoons, the studio released their flagship title Cuphead in 2017 for Xbox One and
PC. Since release, the game has come to PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. Cuphead has spawned a
global consumer product program, where it’s even been reimagined as a cartoon show of its own (The
Cuphead Show!) at Netflix Animation.
In 2022, Studio MDHR followed up the original Cuphead experience with a long-awaited expansion, The
Delicious Last Course. In addition to fleshing out the world of the original game with even more
imaginative bosses and colourful characters, the game told the story of brand-new playable character Ms.
Chalice. The Delicious Last Course went on to sell over 1 million units within the first 2 weeks of release.
