The classic, Disney-styled run and gun video game is now available on the PlayStation 4.

You can already find Cuphead on the PlayStation Store – it costs 20 bucks, 20 euros or 16 quid, depending on your region. „Many of us on the team grew up exploring the worlds of classic PlayStation titles, from Resident Evil to Vandal Hearts. It’s surreal to think about players adventuring through the Inkwell Isles with a PlayStation controller in hand. To all the impassioned PlayStation fans who’ve sent us messages over the years: we’re so excited for you to get a chance to experience Cuphead firsthand. We’re also hugely thankful to the wonderful team at Xbox, who continue to empower us to bring our game and our story to new audiences,” said Studio MDHR co-director Chad Moldenhauer in a press release. Why did he say PlayStation controller? Why not say DualShock 4?

The studio also announced that Cuphead’s Xbox One version will receive a free update that will bring a digital art gallery, behind-the-scenes commentary features, as well as a playable soundtrack for the game. However, we have no idea when this update will launch. What about The Delicious Last Course DLC?

„This year kind of just threw everyone for a loop, and we’re still working hard on [the downloadable content]. In true Cuphead fashion, it’s taking us a little longer than we thought, but we want to make it a memorable experience. And to be honest, I think that we ultimately probably announced it a little bit too early based on when we put pencil to paper. But at the end of the day, we want it to be a fulfilling experience and live up to Cuphead, and it will come out when it’s ready,” Maja Moldenhauer said the following during an interview with Geoff Keighley. She also confirmed that it will release on all platforms simultaneously.

If you like Contra, don’t miss out on Cuphead: it’s a retro-styled AND sounding game that kicks your ass, but it is an enjoyable experience.
