Given how the year’s played out, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Studio MDHR has had to delay Cuphead‘s “The Delicious Last Course” DLC from its previously planned 2020 release window to 2021. This would be the second time the DLC has experienced a delay, but with you-know-what throwing a wrench into everything, it’s no surprise.
“While ‘The Delicious Last Course’ is a continuation of Cuphead and Mugman’s grand adventure, it’s also a conclusion to the story that began on that fateful day at The Devil’s casino,” explains Chad & Jared Moldenhauer of Studio MDHR. “In true Studio MDHR fashion, we aren’t content for this final chapter to be anything less than our best work. Throughout development, we’ve challenged ourselves to put everything we learned from making Cuphead into the quality of ‘The Delicious Last Course”s animation, design, and music.
Meeting this standard has been extremely challenging for us amid the global pandemic that has affected so many our fellow developers. Rather than compromise on our vision in response to COVID, we’ve made the difficult decision to push back the release of ‘The Delicious Last Course’ until we are confident it will delight the Cuphead community of the way we feel it should.”
It’s unfortunate news, but again, it typifies what a lot of studios have had to go through this year with the pandemic. As a sort of consolation, Cuphead has a 25% discount going on Steam (due to the Autumn Sale), the PlayStation Store, the Nintendo eShop, and on the Microsoft Store. Cuphead is available on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC.
