Cuphead - Complete PS4 Playthrough
6OK, final Cuphead upload and it's a doozy: All my previous Cuphead videos that I've uploaded, edited into one continuous long playthrough, featuring EVERY. SINGLE. BOSS (including all the King Dice Mini bosses)! And EVERY Run and Gun stage. I've also re-jigged the boss and Run and Gun encounters into the right order, as I didn't upload them all in the actual chronological order I faced them. Some of the videos featuring multiple bosses also in my previous uploads weren't actually in the order I faced them, as I sometimes put the most difficult MFs at the start. I've handily arranged all the boss encounters and Run and Gun stages into timestamped chapters (for the 10 or so people that'll actually watch this video - I'm not kidding myself - I know this'll barely get any views, but fuck it, I don't care) so you can go straight to a specific one if there's a certain boss or RnG stage you're interested in. Anyway, there's more description info after the timestamps, so don't forget to read that afterwards!

With the exception of one character, I managed to beat all the bosses here on my first sitting. I don't mean by that I beat them on my first go. I mean that on the day I encountered them, I plugged away at doing them until they were defeated, whether that took me 45 minutes or 5 hours. The only exception to that was Grim Matchstick the Dragon boss. He was proving really exceptionally hard to beat, and when I eventually caved in and watched a how-to-beat-him video on YouTube I realised I didn't have the weapon you need, Lobber, to make it a bit more manageable. So I ended up initially just doing him on Simple mode so I could get access to World 3, so I could do another Run and Gun and get access to some more coins.
Of course, I had to get past Captain bloody Brineybeard first before I could do the next Run and Gun, but once those 2 things were taken care of I went back and took Matchstick down. So yeah, in the video I've put the sequences with Grim Matchstick and Brineybeard in the order that you'd actually encounter them in the game, but in reality, the fight here with Matchstick was something I did afterwards.
Obviously, this was me playing the game in stages over several weeks, not one long playthrough I did in a single afternoon. In my original uploads, in some of the boss encounters, I didn't always have the initial bit of footage of me going from the map into their lairs, so after completion, I recorded a bit of footage of me walking around the map going back into these areas, so i could splice it in afterwards just to make the transition between areas look a bit more logical and obvious (just in case you were wondering why some of these bosses show the option for 'Expert' mode and some don't and also why it might be that I go into a boss as Cuphead, but then turn into Mugman).
After the end credits rolled, I decided to wander back to the Elder Kettle's house to see if he had anything else to say now the game was over. He did actually... whilst I was in the area I revisited the Root Pack, as I'd found out afterwards that there was a secret boss encounter that happened if you didn't attack the Onion in it's second phase. It also gave me a chance to get my one and only A+ on the game. Djimmi and Sally Stage play also have secret forms too.
Turns out, you can only get 'S Ranks' on the game's Expert mode. Am I going to give that a go?
Fuck. That.
Did I mention it was hard?
