As previously mentioned, with plenty of new weapons and charms for players to purchase, they’ll need to stock up on Inkwell Isle 4’s supply of coins. However, getting every single coin, of which there are 16, must be done through a multitude of ways.
Ms. Chalice Recipe
The first coinCupheadplayers can collect is right after they first set foot on the new Inkwell Isle. In the town square, there is a food cart just to the right of Chef Saltbaker’s bakery. Equip the Astral Cookie to enter the recipe book, which is essentially a tutorial on how to do all ofMs. Chalice’s unique moves. Utilize those moves in order to get the coin located in the upper right corner of the recipe page.
Talk to the town square NPC
As was the case withthe initialCupheadcampaign, the first NPC players can talk to will give them three coins. Simply approach the newsboy-like character, where after thanking Cuphead for his deeds, three coins will be given.
The Secret Path
Cupheadis notorious for putting hidden paths and shortcuts within its overworld, and the DLC is no different. On the other side of the bridge from the coin-giving NPC is one of Porkrind’s Emporium locations. Head behind the shop and keep left, where another coin can be collected after blindly walking far enough in that direction.
The King’s Leap
After collecting the first five coins, the remaining 11 are actually conveniently located in one spot. Not so conveniently, players must surpass five separate challenges if they want to claim them all. A unique element toCuphead: The Delicious Last Course, The King’s Leap challengesrequiresCupheadplayers to exclusively use parrys, stripping them of any weapons or charms. The reward amount for each chess piece-themed challenge is as follows:
