Cuphead devs announce two new games: a hand-animated successor, and an 8-bit throwback

A box with "Mighty Cuphead Adventure" on it.

Cuphead is back. Nearly four years after the hand-drawn platformer released it's final expansion, The Delicious Last Course, developer Studio MDHR is back for more. During Summer Game Fest 2026 MDHR announced not one but two new projects.

The first project is a true successor to the original Cuphead. It will be hand-animated and, "take Cuphead and friends on a fresh, exciting adventure." That's according to a puppet news anchor that stars in the trailer MDHR showed off at Summer Game Fest. The project is still in early stages, so we didn't get a look at any gameplay, but the puppet news anchor promises the team will reveal more when the time is right.
