Cuphead is Releasing on Tesla Brand Electric Cars

Tesla, the electric car manufacturer, has announced plans to make Cuphead playable on Tesla model vehicles this summer.

In an interview with Tesla CEO Elon Musk on the Ride the Lighting Podcast, he revealed that the company has been working with StudioMDHR, the development team responsible for Cuphead, has been working with them to get the game working on Tesla digital dashboards.

This follows a previous announcement, where Tesla was looking into making retro video games like Missile Command and Asteroids available in their vehicles.

StudioMDHR producer Maja Moldenhauer spoke about the partnership in greater details with IGN.

"Finding out that Mr. Musk was a fan of our game was extremely humbling and getting a chance to work with such an innovative company has been really exciting. We hope Cuphead can add some classic fun to such forward-thinking vehicles."

Moldenhauer went on to explain that there was a requirement for the game to run "super, super clean." In order to ensure this, the Cuphead Tesla edition will require a USB controller to be plugged into the vehicle. On-screen touch controls will not be available. It also means that only a small portion of the game will be available, due to storage limitations.

Cuphead for Teslas will release some time this summer.
