We\u2019re barely past the halfway mark of 2018, and are humbled to announce that Cuphead has already reached over 3 million copies sold!<span id=\"more-985\" \/> It\u2019s hard for us to express just how appreciative we are to everyone who has played and enjoyed our niche little run &amp; gun game with the wacky rubber-hose characters.<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate this huge milestone, we\u2019re putting Cuphead on sale on <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/268910\/Cuphead\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Steam<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/p\/cuphead\/9njrx71m5x9p?SilentAuth=1\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Xbox<\/a> for the next couple of days! So if you haven\u2019t had a chance to wallop the Devil, it\u2019s a good day for a swell battle!<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll also be marking the occasion here at Studio MDHR with some extra-special giveaways over the next few days. Keep an eye out on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/StudioMDHR\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/studiomdhr\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> for some fun surprises.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back, 2018 has been a very exciting year for us.<\/p>\n<p>The big highlight, of course, was getting the chance to pull the curtain back on the project we\u2019ve been working on since the original game\u2019s release: our upcoming DLC, <a href=\"http:\/\/studiomdhr.com\/the-delicious-last-course-cuphead-dlc-announcement\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Delicious Last Course<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>[embedded content]<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve also been so fortunate to be able to share in the adventure with some amazing people. We met the legendary animator James Baxter at this year\u2019s Annie Awards in February, and somehow managed to convince him to do an on-stage animation collaboration with us at E3!<\/p>\n<p>[embedded content]<\/p>\n<p>In June, we cheered on the amazing Mexican Runner as he delivered a lightning fast and hilariously entertaining speedrun at Summer Games Done Quick 2018. It\u2019s such a thrill to see people still finding new and exciting ways to explore the Inkwell Isles.<\/p>\n<p>[embedded content]<\/p>\n<p>So while we\u2019ll mostly have our pencils to paper for the rest of the year, we still have a couple little tricks up our sleeve before the end of 2018.
