For those unfamiliar with the original game, Disney Epic Mickey follows Mickey as he navigates the Wasteland, a magical realm filled with lesser-known Disney characters, and faces off against Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Disney’s precursor to Mickey Mouse. When Mickey accidentally releases a destructive force called the Blot, he must work to rectify his mistake and save the Wasteland. Players control Mickey and his enchanted paintbrush, with the power to create and erase objects, shaping the game’s narrative with their choices.
Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed will be launching on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. Stay tuned for our review of this nostalgic adventure, and in the meantime, you can revisit our thoughts on the original Epic Mickey.
