Cuphead, an indie side-scroller game released in 2017, gained popularity for its challenging bosses and old-school cartoon art style. The bosses in the title have unique attack patterns, skill sets, and equipment ranges, making them a little more difficult to beat. While 17 bosses are spread across three islands, 11 others are in a fictional hell.

This article lists every Cuphead boss and their statistics.
