Cuphead, one of the very few Microsoft-published games to make its way to the Nintendo Switch, has made his way into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a Mii costume as of Update 7.0. The costume for a Mii Gunner is available to purchase, and comes with the music track “Floral Fury”.
It’s not quite the same as getting Cuphead as a fully fledged fighter would be, but then the character was not on most player’s radars as a possible addition.
It’s a cool, unexpected cameo, and to celebrate, developers Studio MDHR are offering a rare discount on the Switch version of Cuphead. Until Friday (January 31), the game is available on the Eshop for 25% off. Cuphead doesn’t often drop in price, so it’s a good opportunity to snatch up the Switch version.
It’s a good day for a swell battle! Cuphead has officially joined Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as part of Update 7.0! Every purchase of the Cuphead Mii Gunner Costume includes the Floral Fury music track.

Cuphead has been a huge success story, and is getting turned into an animated series for Netflix. It will also be receiving new DLC in 2020, expanding the adventure out further.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate will also be expanded further, with six more fighters being added before the end of 2021.
