![]() Which was the time the Black Plague killed half of Europe. I mean, they ONLY had five years of development time. You can’t use Chalice’s Super Art II a second time until the first one breaks, yet, here it is. ONLY the animation for the shield was still there, as if it was working. ![]() BUT, between phases, the shield stopped working. Chalice’s Super Art II for the extra shield. During the very final boss of the DLC content, I used Ms. Huh? And that’s just one of many weird issues. I replayed the level, did more or less as good, finished with three life again, and that time, it gave me credit for it. My first match using the Divine Relic, the game said I scored a 0 in life, and like the careless manure farmer, I completely lost my shit. I worked hard to charge up the Cursed Relic into the Divine Relic and was all set to kick ass. With the new charms and abilities that grant you extra life, I had planned on at long-last getting A+ scores on every boss. The Delicious Last Course is glitchy as all hell. I’ve created a guide on how you can start a new file and quickly get them. Chalice charm and the over-powered DLC guns. If you want to start over from the beginning, you must beat the Run ‘n Gun stage Forest Follies and Mausoleum I in order to get to the Ms. Combine her abilities with the new guns in the game, like the over-powered Crackshot pictured above, and this IS the Easy Mode Cuphead has been begging for. She springs-upwards if you score a parry, which can send you into another projectile’s path (this happened to me tons of times), but it also makes probably over half the game’s parrys easier to score. Chalice’s parry is tied to her dash, and sometimes this can cost you. In fact, multiple coins and challenges in the Run ‘n Gun stages are completely annihilated by just that double jump. ![]() The double jump by itself nerfs multiple levels and bosses. She has a shorter standard jump, BUT, she also has a double jump. It can be even more than that with her Super Art II, which is a shield that doesn’t go away until you take a hit (well, unless the game glitches out, and this DLC is glitchy as all hell). I figured I’d need about 200 lives to beat the entire game with her. Chalice for everything I was allowed to use her on (only Cuphead/Mugman can do the Mausoleums). THIS IS CUPHEAD’S REAL EASY MODEĪfter beating the DLC, I started a new file where I used only Ms. Turning this $19.99 release into a $27.98 release basically gives you the easy mode-without-penalty everyone has wanted for five years now. Yet, after a certain point, I got the “we’re holding back a little” vibe out of it. The bosses are creative (though the whole “you’ve never seen transformations like this” left me expecting much more grand set-pieces than what we got). Maybe I’m wrong, but I get that vibe out of Cuphead D.L.C. I suspect they feel the same way and probably have buyer’s remorse that they announced DLC like four years ago. For a game like Cuphead, you really don’t expect a mediocre player like myself to be able to do that. I beat two of them (the Bishop and the finale, the Queen) on my very first ever attempt playing them. The King of Games and the five battles against bosses themed like chess pieces are basically all fun, but some of them are pretty weak too. thing I can say about The Last Delicious Course (doesn’t that sound better than Delicious Last Course?) is that I wish Studio MDHR had spent the last five years just making a sequel, because the content we actually got is spectacular. Maybe more than one new shmup stage? Nope, just one. For DLC that took almost five years to make, I guess I was hoping more. You also get new guns that are the most powerful in the game, new charms that actually made me move off the smoke dash for the final boss, a new character that comes with totally different skills than Cuphead or Mugman, and a secret item that, once you finish messing around with it, basically activates God Mode. For that money, you get six new bosses, a King Dice style single-phase mini-boss, and five single-phase mini-bosses where your guns don’t work at all and you can only win via parrying. This isn’t going to come as an incredible shock to you, but Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course is worth $7.99. CUPHEAD: THE DEFINITIVE REVIEW GUIDE – PART ONE – PART TWO – PART THREE – PART FOUR
