Dark Souls Gets A Cuphead Makeover In Fan Animation
Cuphead is a gorgeous, tough-as-nails platformer that demands proper timing, patience, and perseverance in order to get through its difficult bosses. You could say it's the Dark Souls of platforms (but you really shouldn't).
Well, now Dark Souls is the Dark Souls of Cuphead, or something. Youtube channel 64 Bits has created Cupsouls, a short cartoon which transforms imposing bosses like Ornstein, Smouth, Quelaag, and more and reimagines them as Cuphead-style single-screen encounters. The animations are no slouch, either, and you can tell a lot of work wen into making sure both series got the proper respect they deserve in the video below. No, there's no actual game on the way and no, that's not going to stop us from wanting it.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
