Why Cuphead is on PlayStation 4
Of all the things to happen this week, we weren’t expecting Studio MDHR’s Cuphead to arrive, without warning, on the PlayStation 4. It turns out that Microsoft and Sony have been working behind the scenes for a while to get this deal to work.
But hang on – wasn’t Cuphead an Xbox exclusive? Didn’t the game only come to Switch as part of a big experiment from Microsoft?
Clearly, that paid off, as it seems that Microsoft is officially abandoning any kind of rivalry with Sony in favour of letting Xbox games release on the PlayStation.
Apparently, Microsoft’s Head of Games Phil Spencer now believes Google Stadia to be a bigger threat that the PS5.
Which…well, good job for picking your battles, Xbox. You stand a far better chance of beating the Stadia than the PS5. In the meantime, Maja Moldenhauer is eager to tell the world how thrilled Studio MDHR is to have Cuphead on PS4.
Apparently the indie dev family have been wanting this for a while. They’ve also been struggling due to working from home – not so much the challenge of remote working, but rather, balancing this with childcare concerns while their kids aren’t at school or in daycare.
As such, DLC The Delicious Last Course is still far from completion. But hey, it’s better that the Moldenhauers take their time. Some things are worth waiting for, and it’s good to know that this is one studio that values family time over crunch.
Stay safe!
Lots of love, BretonStripes ( and Kotor (

Microsoft don’t see Sony as a competitor because they lost a few years ago, they cannot compete with Sony.

WTF THIS QUESTION IS SO STUPID
I'm glad it came to PS4 I always wanted to play it and I don't have an xbox nor a PC
They needa put on ps5
The video is 4:21
we were so close, yet so far
I thought ps4 always had cup head. Huh
Xbox never confirm when a game is a timed exclusives. Their doing it again with launch day exclusives, yeah so timed.
Xbox can never hold their exclusives.
That Trailer For Cuphead On The PlayStation 4 is cursed.
am getting this game soon just watched the trailer and it looks like a challenge but i like challenges🙂😄
This is such an underrated channel.
I saw Xbox fan hate cuphead on ps4
See guys? Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo are buddies! You don't need to fight over wich one is better! I bet Phill Spencer, Shaw Layden and Doug Bowser are having a nice little match of Raid: Shadow Legends as I write this comment.
I love how the 4 nations of gaming Nintendo,Sony,Xbox,PC are all slowly uniting
How could it dutch say?
We need MoNeY
Thank god
What will they do know ? Put god of war 4 in xbox?
Working together😂😂? You mean when gamepass failed to make money put it on other platforms. Another video to support xbox anti consumer propaganda against Sony. Sell 100 of millions of consoles and make good games simple business model dont fail again and again and act as a good guy 😂😂😂
Ct@ no te entiendo ni una chot@, porque me salís en recomendados??!!
Yes, it was ALL about xbox wanting to work together. Not because they made a bad exclusive deal and realized they could save or make more money. I pray these companies never work together. The rivalries and differences are what makes them great.
I got cuphead on ps4 and its hard but damn its awesome.
Now if I could just get Perfect Dark and Battletoads arcade I'll have everything I've ever wanted from Ek-Bok!
Ok cool, but why do the characters look like they haven't been sleaping for three monts?
If xbox and PlayStation are partnering up Probably PlayStation exclusives can be played on the Xbox And Xbox Exclusives can be played in PlayStation?
So dose this mean that other Xbox exclusive are coming to the ps4 then?
Micro$oft is going downhill. They are getting desperate.
What does the cup has to say?
If only Sony is as open minded as Microsoft, I want small games like Patapon on Xbox
Xbox la mejor consola
i was fricking SCREAMING when i saw this video on my recommended
Cuphead was one of the only resons to buy an Xbox
Such a shame there is not a physical copy of Cuphead 💿🎮
So this shows xboxone has no exclusives 😂🤣
So what is the point of xbox if games are on Nintendo Switch & PS4??
