Cuphead Discounted 20% on Steam and Xbox One
Cuphead, the brutally hard and awesome boss rush platformer, has gone triple platinum, announced Studio MDHR. That means over three million copies of the game have been sold across Xbox One and Steam.
โWeโre barely past the halfway mark of 2018, and are humbled to announce that Cuphead has already reached over 3 million copies sold!โ Studio MDHR said in a statement. โItโs hard for us to express just how appreciative we are to everyone who has played and enjoyed our niche little run & gun game with the wacky rubber-hose characters.โ
Looking back, Cuphead has been a breakaway success for the company. Not long after its launch in September 2017, the game sold one million units in less than two weeks. By December, it was at two million. While the journey to three million has taken a bit more time, itโs still a remarkable achievement for a studiosโ debut game.
In celebration of hitting the big milestone, Cupheadโs price has been slashed by 20% on Steam and Xbox One for the next 24 hours, so if youโve yet to experience Cuphead fever, now would be a good time to see what the hubbub is all about.
In a blog post, Studio MDHR will also have โextra-special giveaways over the next few daysโ on their Twitter and Facebook accounts as well as โsome fun surprises.โ
Cuphead isnโt done yet either. DLC was announced at E3 in June called โThe Delicious Last Courseโ (DLC, get it?). It will add a new island to the game alongside a new playable character, new weapons, and more bosses. It wonโt be out until 2019, however.
The studio also teased that they have โa couple little tricksโ up their sleeve for the remainder of 2018 and to stay tuned to their social media channels to be in the loop.
