The SECRET Cuphead Song Explained + How to activate it? - [Cuphead]

[@GrilledChesseGamer]

Fun fact: People tought this music was anti piracy but it turns out one of devs Ryan responded that they dont have anti piracy and no jumpscare and this mystery was 6 YEARS of discovering

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

That is true. Also the fact that this easter egg has been on the game for a very long time and after people thought that this was just a random unused song for 6 years it has just been discovered this week out of nowhere is actually insane!

[@KingkristIndustries]

This editing was surprisingly pretty good

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

I'm now focusing more on editing than gameplay so it's amazing to hear that you like the editing and this new video style. Thank you so much for your support! :D

[@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming]

This song is in my head and it’s creepy

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

It is pretty creppy for a Cuphead song for sure!

[@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming]

@@TheSkeletonGuy yea and with the creepy Devil pictures and the menu picture makes it even creepier. I shared this with my friends and they are terrified

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

I don't think it's that scary to terrify me however it was kind of weird listening it for the first time. I'm so sorry if this actually scared you that much!

[@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming]

@@TheSkeletonGuy it’s ok

[@morganclement4094]

I was shocked it worked🤯🤯

[@Flawpidy]

It’s a shame my switch is so freaking silent

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

The switch prevented you from hearing the scariest song in the game. I would call the switch a hero for that lol.

[@AlexZhinin-ed1in]

I did this and the sound won't stop💀

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

I guess the Devil from the funny run and gun game called "Cuphead" has corrupted the game files. There is certainly nothing we can do... Except Alt + f4 lol

[@Thatreal_guy]

Do you know how to activate it on console or specifically switch?

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

Okay i looked into the Nintendo Switch buttons and even though i'm not %100 sure that this will work here are the button combinations for Switch ; - Up [The Up Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go north in the map overworld or makes you aim up during boss battles] - Up [The Up Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go north in the map overworld and makes you aim up during boss battles] - Down [The Down Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go south in the map overworld and makes you crouch during boss battles] - Down [The Down Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go south in the map overworld and makes you crouch during boss battles] - Left [The Left Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go left in the map overworld and the button that makes your character move left during boss battles] - Right [The Right Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go right in the map overworld and the button that makes your character move right during boss battles] - Left [The Left Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go left in the map overworld and the button that makes your character move left during boss battles] - Right [The Right Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go right in the map overworld and the button that makes your character move right during boss battles] - Back [Couldn't find the exact button however this button makes you pause the game [that simple ui with four choices] which basically is the Escape key on Switch] - Enter [Also Couldn't find the exact button but this button is basically the button that allows you to enter the boss battles , talk with NPCs , purchase something from Porkrind and basically the enter key for Switch] I hope this works and have a wonderful day! :D

[@Thatreal_guy]

Ok I will try it my friend loves cuphead and I would love to suprise them with this thanks

[@Thatreal_guy]

I tried it and it worked its way scaryer in game than watching someone on yt do it imop

[@Thatreal_guy]

​@@TheSkeletonGuyalso the exact code is like the original Konami code ⬆️ ⬆️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬅️ ➡️ ⬅️ ➡️ B A

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

This easter egg is a direct reference to the Konami Code which i think is a pretty cool easter egg to put into the game but the fact that this entire easter egg was so complicated to activate that it was undiscovered for 6 years which is kinda understandable. I'm glad i could help! :D

[@tiniestdespair]

What does the morse code at 0:01 translate to?

[@GordonFreeman414]

has anyone translated the morse code in the 0:00 scary A.K.A the very beginning of the video

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

I didn't see anyone translating it so i guess the answer is no due to that however that morse code has been added by me so it's not a part of the actual audio.

[@Pr0oAraB]

Skeleton guy, I need to to do a Favour for me… how did you do that AI voice

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

I get the AI voices from a text to speech website. I basically type what i want to say and it transforms the text to a robot voice! :D [If you're asking for the website it's called Textmagic!]

[@Pr0oAraB]

@@TheSkeletonGuy is it free EDIT: it’s not free but it’s cheap downside NOT AVAILABLE IN SAUDI ARABIA💀

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

In that case i recommend you looking at other text to speech websites because there are also other free websites besides the one i'm using. Anyways i hope you have a wonderful day! :D

[@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming]

What platforms are 1.1.5+?

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

I'm not sure how to really explain this however if you have the DLC installed or your Cuphead is the most current version [Version 1.2.3 i think] then you should be able to activate this song!

[@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming]

@@TheSkeletonGuy does it work for Nintendo Switch? Note but I always play Cuphead on Nintendo Switch

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

It does work on every platform as long as your version is above 1.1.5!

[@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming]

@@TheSkeletonGuy alright thanks!

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

You're welcome! :D

[@JasperThomas-c4v]

I need to know how to do it on which and I mean Nintendo switch

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

This secret is pretty similar in almost every device you can play Cuphead on which is the same case for Nintendo Switch. Let me give you a quick guide ; - So as i mentioned in the video you have to go to the Devil's boss fight and when you see the first cutscene that gives you two choices ["Yes" , "No"] you have to pick "Yes" in order to activate the Bad ending which gets us a step closer to unlocking this easter egg. After doing you have to go to the second part of the intro which should only have a single cup in the background and when you get there you have to press these buttons in an exact order. Keep in mind that if you accidentally press an another button you have to restart doing this combination again. [THE BUTTON COMBINATION] (Taken from a reply from an another comment) ; - Up [The Up Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go north in the map overworld or makes you aim up during boss battles] - Up [The Up Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go north in the map overworld and makes you aim up during boss battles] - Down [The Down Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go south in the map overworld and makes you crouch during boss battles] - Down [The Down Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go south in the map overworld and makes you crouch during boss battles] - Left [The Left Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go left in the map overworld and the button that makes your character move left during boss battles] - Right [The Right Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go right in the map overworld and the button that makes your character move right during boss battles] - Left [The Left Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go left in the map overworld and the button that makes your character move left during boss battles] - Right [The Right Button in Directional Buttons. If it doesn't work this is the button that makes your character go right in the map overworld and the button that makes your character move right during boss battles] - Back [Couldn't find the exact button however this button makes you pause the game [that simple ui with four choices] which basically is the Escape key on Switch] - Enter [Also Couldn't find the exact button but this button is basically the button that allows you to enter the boss battles , talk with NPCs , purchase something from Porkrind and basically the enter key for Switch] If you do this combination in order correctly after having unlocked the bad ending you should be able to activate the easter egg therefore hearing the scariest song in the entire game. I hope this guide helped. If you have more questions feel free to ask me. I hope you have a wonderful day! :D

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

It does work for Nintendo Switch. Here is the button combination that i came up with after searching about Nintendo Switch's controls ; - Up [The Up Button in Directional Buttons.

[@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming]

@@TheSkeletonGuy thanks! I kinda want you to do a guide video or honestly helps better! If you don’t want to do it I understand.

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

​@@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming I mean i think this guide video should be enough to unlock this easter egg but if you still didn't understand it that's totally fine. I'm going to be explaining this easter egg in this comment too with some more details. GUIDE ; So after updating your game to version 1.1.5 or above (To do this you basically have to update the game to the latest version you can update to so if you don't have the DLC then you have to update your game to the closest version to the DLC or if you have the DLC you don't have to worry about this) you will have to beat the entire game all the way to the devil boss fight (if you already completed the main game you can just go to the devil's boss fight from there) and after doing that you have to accept the devil's deal which triggers the bad ending for the player (so as you probably know you fight the devil by declining his offer so you choose "no" so what you have to do here is choose "yes") and after doing that the bad ending cutscene will play. After doing that get past the credit screen to the main menu of the game where the two brothers are dancing. Then press any button to go to the other menu with the single cup in the background and after you're here press the button combinations of : Up , Up , Down , Down , Left , Right , Left , Right , Back and Enter and you should be able to hear the song playing which means you succesfully have found this easter egg. (Up , Down , Left and Right keys are buttons from Directional Buttons so you should press those and abou tthe back and enter buttons as i explained in my previous comments the back key is the button that pauses the game and the enter key is the key that makes you enter into boss stages. Hope this helped! If you have any more questions feel free to ask me. Have a wonderful day! :D

[@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming]

@@TheSkeletonGuy it helped a little more but I’m confused about an enter button. There is no enter button on the switch

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

@@MichaelJacksonRobloxGaming The enter button is basically the button that you press to enter boss stages , to the porkrind's shop , the tutorial levels or equipping a charm , super or a weapon. Basically one of the main buttons you use in the game!

[@dcg2533]

How do you do this on ps4

[@TheSkeletonGuy]

In PS4 it works out the same expect the buttons you have to press in your controller so after you activate the bad ending and get to the selection menu you have to press these buttons in order to activate this easter egg ; [Disclaimer : You have to do this combination exactly without messing up because if you do you will have to start doing the combination from start again] - Up (This is the button you can find from the Directional Pad's up button which makes your character go up in the overworld and makes you aim up during land bossfights) - Up (This is the button you can find from the Directional Pad's up button which makes your character go up in the overworld and makes you aim up during land bossfights) - Down (This is the button you can find from the Directional Pad's down button which makes your character go down in the overworld and makes you crouch during land bossfights) - Down (This is the button you can find from the Directional Pad's down button which makes your character go down in the overworld and makes you crouch during land bossfights) - Left (This is the button you can find from the Directional Pad's left button which makes your character go left in the overworld and makes you move left during land bossfights) - Right (This is the button you can find from the Directional Pad's right button which makes your character go right in the overworld and makes you move right during land bossfights) - Left (This is the button you can find from the Directional Pad's left button which makes your character go left in the overworld and makes you move left during land bossfights) - Right (This is the button you can find from the Directional Pad's right button which makes your character go right in the overworld and makes you move right during land bossfights) - Back (I'm not exactly sure which button this is but this button is the button you press if you want to pause the game) - Enter (I'm also not exactly sure which button this is but this is basically the main button used in the game. You press this button once you want to enter a level , entering Porkrind's Shop , talking with the NPCs etc.) And after you do this combination the song should play however if you have any more questions you can let me know. I hope this tutorial helped you and have a wonderful day! :D
