Cuphead has cleared one million sales

It’s red hot

If you’ve been enjoying Cuphead and want the talented folks at Studio MDHR to continue making games, real good news on that front: two weeks later, they’ve sold one million copies.

“We have worked tirelessly over the past few years to deliver a game that remained true to our vision and we are both humbled and excited that so many people from around the world are playing Cuphead – it truly makes it all worth it,” said co-creators Chad and Jared Moldenhauer in a blog post.

Pre-release, I was confident I’d like this game, but I wasn’t sure how much it would resonate with everyone else and I was nervous for the developers knowing how high the stakes were. It ended up clicking with me even more than expected — Cuphead is one of my favorite games this year, easily — and it’s gratifying to hear that things are looking good not just critically but commercially too.
