Discover hidden passages and shortcuts in Cuphead's DLC, The Delicious Last Course. Learn strategies for secret bosses, Cursed Relics, and 100% completion.

The Delicious Last Course DLC for Cuphead introduces new challenges, including secret bosses and hidden mechanics. This guide details how to uncover these secrets and achieve full completion.

Walkthrough:

  1. A Vacation In The Wilds: Defeat all five main bosses in Inkwell Isle IV. These include The Moonshine Mob, Esther Winchester, Glumstone The Giant, Mortimer Freeze, and The Howling Aces. This is story-related and cannot be missed.
  2. Ranger: Achieve an A-Rank or higher on all Inkwell Isle IV bosses. Requirements include defeating the boss in under two minutes on Regular difficulty, maintaining at least 3HP, and performing three parries and six special attacks. The DLC's two secret bosses count towards this. Using Djimmi The Great's wishes for extra HP will void progress.
  3. Alive And Kicking: Defeat any boss with Ms. Chalice. Equip the Astral Cookie charm and defeat any boss from Inkwell Isle I-IV, including DLC bosses and original bosses like Cala Maria and Baroness Von Bon Bon.
  4. Decadent: Defeat 10 bosses with Ms. Chalice. This only counts main bosses, not mini-bosses. A recommended strategy is to equip a new DLC weapon and defeat all bosses on Inkwell Isle I and II on Simple or Regular difficulty.
  5. The Golden Touch: Defeat a boss using one of Ms. Chalice's Super Arts. Super Art I, a vertical beam, is effective against bosses like the Announcer Snail or Psycarrot.
  6. The Latest Sensation: Defeat a boss with one of Porkrind's new weapons (Converge, Crackshot, or Twist-Up). These weapons also aid in achieving other trophies.
  7. Checkmate: Defeat all of the King Of Games' Champions. These mini-bosses (The Pawns, The Knight, The Bishop, The Rook, and The Queen) are unlocked by climbing a rope ladder and speaking to the King Of Games. They must be defeated using only parries, with no weapons or charms allowed. Ms. Chalice's dash parry ability is particularly helpful.
  8. A King's Admiration: Complete
