Overview
- Studio MDHR announced Friday that it has begun development on a new hand‑animated Cuphead game that the company says is in its earliest stages.
- At the same Summer Game Fest announcement the studio unveiled Mighty Cuphead Adventure, an 8‑bit action platformer built in Assembly to the exact specifications of the Sega Master System.
- Studio MDHR says Mighty Cuphead Adventure will run on modern consoles and PC while also being available as a physical cartridge that can play on original Sega Master System hardware.
- The 8‑bit title was developed in secret by a small internal team, a detail the studio highlighted that may mean the spin‑off reaches players sooner than the larger hand‑animated project.
- Studio MDHR presented the news in a Special Bulletin with stop‑motion partners, gave no release windows, and said it will share further details in the months ahead, framing both projects around the studio’s emphasis on craft.
