The Cuphead Show was announced way back in 2019, but now we finally have a clip for the upcoming animated series that shows off our first look at King Dice
Cuphead, which was released in 2017, sports a look inspired by the classic (and terrifying) Max Fleischer cartoons from the 1930s and has sold over 4 million copies since then. It also took home Best Indie Game at the 2017 Game Awards as well as a BAFTA Games award. The show takes a similar approach.

“Heedle, heedle, heedle, heedle,” sings King Dice in the quick clip. “Scoobah-doo-doo be-doo-zay.” He then asks who will be the first lucky contestant to roll the dice. The contestant comes on stage and is told not to touch him as he’s overly eager.
