Master Cuphead's 'The King of Games: Final Challenge' with our expert walkthrough. Learn strategies, tips, and tricks to overcome the final boss and achieve 100% completion in The Delicious Last Course.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Defeat the King's Champions: Ascend the rope ladder to the King Of Games. You will face five mini-bosses: The Pawns, The Knight, The Bishop, The Rook, and The Queen. The primary challenge is that you cannot use any weapons or charms; victory is achieved solely through parrying attacks. Ms. Chalice's dash parry is particularly effective here.
  2. 2
    Complete The Gauntlet: After defeating the Champions, the King Of Games will present 'The Gauntlet.' This challenge requires you to defeat all five mini-bosses in sequence without any failures. Failing at any point will restart the entire gauntlet.
Tips
  • Playing as Ms. Chalice is highly recommended due to her dash parry, which makes navigating the Champion fights and The Gauntlet significantly easier.
  • Focus on mastering the parry timing for each mini-boss's attacks.
  • Practice each mini-boss individually if needed before attempting the full gauntlet.
  • Patience and perseverance are key, as failing The Gauntlet will require you to restart from the beginning.
