Cuphead Nintendo Switch

Today during a special Nindies Showcase livestream, Nintendo announced that Cuphead will be coming to the Nintendo Switch on April 18. Nintendo explicitly thanked Microsoft for helping the developers at StudioMDHR to bring their brilliant creation to the Switch. This marks the beginning of a newly-elevated degree of partnership between Nintendo and Microsoft, and we’re loving it.

If that weren’t enough, Microsoft confirmed in its own newswire update that Xbox Live features would be coming to Cuphead. The Xbox Live integration won’t be available at launch, but will be implemented in a post-launch update. Here’s a brief excerpt from their release:

“Growing out of these recent discussions, we are partnering with StudioMDHR to investigate bringing Xbox Live features beyond Xbox and PC to Nintendo Switch. Yes, this means that fans will now have the opportunity to experience StudioMDHR’s award-winning debut game on Nintendo Switch with Xbox Live! We’ll be working with StudioMDHR to implement Xbox Live features into Cuphead on the Nintendo Switch in the coming months.”

Do notice the broad wording. Microsoft intends to integrate Xbox Live more intimately for Nintendo Switch users generally, not just with Cuphead. This has been rumored for some time, and we’re happy to see confirmation from Microsoft. At the time of writing, Minecraft players can already unlock Xbox Live achievements by playing on Nintendo Switch.

If you’re interested in checking out Cuphead when it launches on Nintendo Switch on April 18, it will be available to pre-order on the Nintendo Switch eShop starting today.
