Oct 11, 2022The Delicious Last Course lives up to its name by bringing Cuphead to a truly magnificent conclusion. The DLC is packed with a generous amount of content that'll keep players coming back for more. Ms. Chalice's play style is enough to add hours of replay value on its own, but the fact she's rounded out by over half a dozen new bosses, unique parry challenges, new weapons to play around with, and a lengthy side quest dedicated to upgrading a charm makes it even better. Inkwell Isle Four is small, but the DLC makes the most of its space and doesn't restrict new content to the one setting. Every weapon, charm, and even Ms. Chalice herself can be used in the three main Isles once they're unlocked. With so much quality content on tap, Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course sets a new standard for DLC.

Nintendo Force MagazineNov 9, 2022Cuphead was already a landmark in video game art and animation on top of being an expertly balanced tribute to the arcade shooters of yesteryear. Studio MDHR nailed the formula right out the gate and sought only to give fans more of what they loved in the form of a "delicious last course" to satisfy any lingering cravings. If this is truly the end of the Cuphead ride, what a high note to leave on! [Issue #61 – September/October 2022, p. 28]

Aug 8, 2022The Delicious Last Course is one of the most anticipated DLC for me, from one of the games that surprised me the most for its quality in recent times. Cuphead and its additional content are definitely a masterpiece.

Jul 21, 2022The Delicious Last Course is everything Cuphead fans could have wanted from a DLC. It’s just as great as the original game, and just as gruelling to complete. As always, the animation work shines, and the gameplay is stellar too.

Jul 6, 2022The Delicious Last Course is more of Cuphead's original magic. It might be a little short, but is design, graphical presentation and outstanding soundtrack, makes it a perfect DLC for one of the most important indie games of all time.

Jul 6, 2022With an interesting story, a handful of tough new bosses, and a few secrets to find, Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course exceeds expectations. The charming visuals, sound effects, and music build on the unique art style of the base game while still standing out with fun, albeit sometimes frustrating, encounters. The story conveys a new and dangerous adventure for Cuphead and Mugman who are joined by the sweet but formidable Ms. Chalice.
-
Jul 5, 2022A brilliant addition to the base game that condenses the highlights of the original into a handful of fantastic boss fights, The Delicious Last Course is a constant delight from start to finish. About 4-5 hours of great new bosses, new ways to play, and a new character to get to grips with, Cuphead fans will be delighted to return to this world with so many new foes and new tools to kill them with.
-
Jul 4, 2022The new DLC is a great example of quality over quantity and is an easy blanket recommendation for any fans of the original game. Newcomers, however, may want to do their homework before pulling the trigger. Because like the devil at the heart of Cuphead, The Delicious Last Course demands your blood, sweat, and soul… where do we sign up?

Jul 4, 2022Cuphead - The Delicious Last Course is a great little expansion that adds new life to one of the Switch's most entertaining games. It may be a tad on the short side but what's here is absolutely fantastic and it's reasonably priced to take its length into account. If you have the original, this is essential. If you don't, they both are.

Jul 1, 2022Cuphead - The Delicious Last Course is more of the same, and we're glad of it. Thanks to the cool introduction of Ms. Chalice and bosses of all kinds, we have not been able to let go of the controls until we ate all of it like a sweet, sweet dessert.

Jun 30, 2022The Delicious Last Course is more of Cuphead. Not better. Not worse. Just more of what we loved of Cuphead. If you like the original game, you will enjoy this DLC.

Jul 8, 2022Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course is like one of those delicious cream puffs, a single explosive mouthful with which you risk getting lost in a blissful glycemic trance.

Sep 2, 2022It’s hard to knock the Delicious Last Course on anything other than I just didn’t find it very fun — as was the case with the base game. Everything else though, from performance to visuals and music, is top notch. If you’re a bit of a glutton for punishment and want some more bosses to fight, the Delicious Last Course might be up your alley. And, for only $7.99, it’s pretty easy on the wallet.

Aug 23, 2022As for Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course, it is a serving that was well worth the long wait. For the price of a meal deal at a tacky fast-food restaurant, you are getting a gourmet dish that is unlikely to leave you feeling bloated.
-
Jul 20, 2022The Delicious Last Course closes out Cuphead in style thanks to fantastic foes to fight and welcome new mechanics to enjoy.
-
Jul 7, 2022Obviously, if you enjoyed Cuphead and just want more of the same then getting The Delicious Last Course should be a no-brainer. That being said, I wish that it differentiated itself more from the main game considering it released nearly 5 years ago.
