Since its arrival on the Switch, Studio MDHR's run 'n gun platform shooter Cuphead has received a lot of love. Most recently, Cuphead himself was added as a Mii Gunner costume in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. If that wasn't already enough for Cuphead fans, there's now a spirit event taking place later this week on Friday.
According to the @SmashBrosJP Twitter account, it starts on the 14th (Valentine's Day) and will last for a total of five days. In this time you'll be able to acquire a total of four new Cuphead-themed spirits including Mugman, King Dice and the Devil. Will you be participating in this upcoming event? Let us know with a comment below.

How swell. Unlike the Devil, I'll be sure to claim their souls.
The devil may not get his due, but the fans sure are!
From hard development, to Xbox exclusive to part of Smash Bros, talk about a success story!
I'm just here waiting for a physical release of Cuphead...
This almost makes up for the terrible selection of SNES games coming this month...
...Almost.
So if Cuphead is getting spirits, that means other indie games can too. I think you know what this means
This is awesome, I’m glad to see Cuphead getting so well recognized. Especially since it started as Xbox exclusive!
All cool and ok, but when can i expect the physical edition?
@DAHstroy you and me both
Shame they could've use a Mii in the Cuphead costume for the Cuphead spirit, instead of red Mega Man.
Eeeeeh, why is the Devil a 2 star instead of an unbeatable 4 star???
Will have to make sure I remember this time, missed out on the Astral Chain event previously.
Why the Cuphead Spirit needs to be Mega Man and not the Mii Gunner using the Cuphead costume?
Will nab these spirits at some point. Would like the mugman spirit
Like usual, people will decide that the Cuphead characters are out of DLC and will never come as Fighters, Cuphead is disconfirmed.
But for me, this is even more evidence that none of the characters who are already Spirits are disconfirmed, it's possible that this confirms that Cuphead is not coming in Fighter Pass Vol. 2, but the game has over a thousand Spirits and they are still adding more fan-favorites to the game as Spirits and killing their chances if that's true, even if Sakurai already decided none of the Spirits are becoming Fighters, if Nintendo orders a Fighter Pass Vol. 3, this rule will be easy to break.
I wouldn't have minded a Cuphead stage with the big band music playing in the background. That would have been awesome.
Pack it up boys, the dream's over
Would love to as I'm actually currently playing cup head and enjoying it alot. Now on world 3! The issue I have is that I'm absolutely poo at smash. I tried and I've studied videos etc but apart from the basics i just cant get it. Some of those spirits are just way too hard for me.
@PBandSmelly That could happen, but which 4 spirits would they pick? Also, I don't see why you got downvoted for that
I wonder why UnderTale didn't get a spirit event??
Just got the spirits. I remembered seeing pictures of Mega Man here. I was fighting Miis with Cuphead costumes though. It had the music too. Does it change depending on if you bought the DLC or not?
