To start Summer Game Fest 2026, Studio MDHR shared breaking news of its upcoming plans. The studio revealed Mighty Cuphead Adventure and shared that development has started on a brand-new, hand-animated Cuphead video game.
Mighty Cuphead Adventure is being developed by a small team at Studio MDHR. It’s an 8-bit action platformer that is inspired by the classics of the 1980s. Interestingly, this game is programmed in classic Assembly Language and designed with the exacting specifications of the Sega Master System home gaming console in mind.
Mighty Cuphead Adventure will be released for modern consoles and PC, and there will be a physical cartridge that you can use on the Sega Master System home gaming console.
“Craftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do here at Studio MDHR,” says co-founder Chad Moldenhauer. “When it came time to peel back the curtain and share a little bit about what we’ve been up to, we couldn’t imagine a more fun way to do so than with today’s Special Bulletin. Crafted with the wonderful teams at Toronto’s Stop Motion Department & Continue Agency, we hope the announcement will transport players to the era we’ll be taking them to in our next project, Mighty Cuphead Adventure.”
More info will be revealed in the coming months for the new Cuphead projects.
