Curious as to how to get S rank in Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course? Worry not, as you’ve come to the right place. In this guide, we’ll explain how to get that all-important S rank so you can rein supreme over those pesky, grinning bosses that keep putting you six feet under. Let’s dive into it, shall we?
Getting S Rank in Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course
To get an S Rank in The Delicious Last Course, you’ll first need to beat the base game of Cuphead on Normal difficult to unlock the ‘Expert’ difficulty setting.
You then need to play a boss level on the ‘Expert’ difficulty setting in The Delicious Last Course, and then successfully beat it while meeting the following requirements:
- Land six Super attacks.
- Complete the level with three HP in under two minutes.
- Perform three non-mandatory parries.
As long as you beat a boss fight on Expert while meeting the above criteria, you’ll attain an S rank for the level, and will have bragging rights over all of your friends.
On Expert, bosses have around 25%-50% more health and everything is significantly faster. As always practice makes perfect, so just keep trying and get used to the lay of the land. Knowing the level layout and enemy attack patterns is your key to success.
What Do You Get for Achieving All S Ranks in Cuphead The Last Course?
Currently, we do know that achieving an S rank in one boss battle in the latest DLC will net you an achievement/ trophy dubbed ‘Cooked to Perfection’ which is worth 50 Gamerscore/ Bronze trophy.
What you get for nailing an S rank in all bosses on Inkwell Isle IV still remains a mystery. However, the final two achievements/ trophies are Secret and may have something to do with getting a 100% completion. These are:
- A Horrible Night to Have a Curse – Survive the Nightmare (30 Gamerscore/ Bronze trophy)
- Paladin – Obtain Great Power (50 Gamerscore/ Bronze trophy)
So, there you have it. We hope this helped you to attain an S rank in Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course DLC. For more on the game, here’s how to start the new expansion, how to solve the Graveyard puzzle, and all the new bosses you’ll meet on your adventure.
