Cuphead Bosses Ranked by Difficulty, Including Delicious Last Course Bosses

Multiple Blue Rings Learn more

Cuphead bosses are notoriously difficult but they’re also some of the most imaginative, mechanically impressive, and visually striking bosses in all of gaming. Studio MDHR did a bang-up job designing these enemies and they recently graced us with a whole slew of new challenging fights via The Delicious Last Course DLC.

This list will feature all the main bosses from the base game, all the mini bosses, and all the Delicious Last Course Bosses, complete with the secret boss fight. In total, we’re looking at no less than 40 bosses, which will make this list even more extensive than our Elden Ring bosses ranked list.

Mangosteen is one of the nine mini bosses you’ll have to defeat before facing off against King Dice. All of them are pretty easy to deal with compared to the main Cuphead bosses, but Mangosteen is arguably the weakest of the bunch.

Pirouletta is another one of King Dice’s henchmen. Just like the aforementioned 8-ball, this mini boss only has a single attack, however, she also dances around the room from side to side and will trample you to death if you’re not careful.

Finally, we can start talking about some Cuphead DLC bosses. You’ll run into a bunch of chess-themed mini bosses during The Delicious Last Course, including these guys. Fittingly enough, The Pawns are the weakest challengers and can be dispatched with relative ease, provided you’re good at Parry Slapping.
