The latest spirit event for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate goes live on Friday, from February 14th for five days you can get spirits from the sensational Shooter/Platformer that is Cuphead.

For anyone who is wondering about Cuphead who might not have played it, we had the following to say about the game which just made it into N-Europe's Top Ten Switch Games 2019... (which you can check out the full article of if you wish by clicking the icon below)

It is no secret that Microsoft and Nintendo started to bond together a little bit in the recent years. But seeing a Microsoft-exclusive game on Switch, now that is something we were not expecting. Cuphead released on the Switch last April, and what a blessing it was. The beautifully drawn, tough-as-nails platformer is perfect for the Switch’s pick-up-and-play style.

Verdict: A perfectly-formed, side-scrolling shmup, with all the charm of drinking from your favourite cup.

Understandably, we're excited about this latest spirit event as these spirits continue what is a truly fantastic crossover between Nintendo and Microsoft as part of the deal which first allowed the game to appear on the Switch, then the Mii Fighter costume with music track and now these spirits which are the icing on the cake.

Will you be loading up Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to get a hold of the new Cuphead spirits this Friday? Have you played Cuphead yet? Or are you still waiting for that physical version which was promised a while back?
