About Cuphead

Cuphead is a classic run and gun action game with a heavy emphasis on boss battles, drawing its inspiration from the animated cartoons of the 1930s. Its distinctive look and sound are crafted using the very techniques of that era, including traditional hand-drawn cel animation, watercolor backgrounds, and original jazz recordings, giving the whole game a handmade, vintage character that sets it apart in the indie platformer and arcade space.

Players take control of Cuphead, or Mugman for those playing local co-op, as they make their way through a series of strange worlds. Along the journey there are new weapons to acquire, powerful super moves to learn, and hidden secrets tucked away for players to uncover, all while the central goal looms overhead: paying back a debt owed to the devil.

The combination of demanding, boss-focused action and its meticulously recreated 1930s presentation gives Cuphead a personality all its own on PC. Whether tackled alone or with a friend, its blend of tight run and gun gameplay and lovingly authentic art and music makes each encounter feel like stepping into a playable cartoon from another age.
