MOUSE: P.I. For Hire Latest News
⚫︎ The release of MOUSE: P.I. For Hire has been pushed back from March 19 to April 16, Developers Fumi Games reasoned that they needed more time to polish the game.
MOUSE: P.I. For Hire Overview
The standout feature of MOUSE: P.I. For Hire is its hand-drawn, old-timey cartoon aesthetic, inspired by the rubber-hose animation style of 1930s cartoons—similar to the visual charm that made Cuphead a legendary indie hit in 2014. However, while Cuphead is a run-and-gun platformer with bullet-hell mechanics, MOUSE: P.I. For Hire takes the fast-paced action into first-person, offering a chaotic rampage through the streets of Mouseburg akin to DOOM: Eternal, complete with an arsenal of hilariously exaggerated, cartoonish weapons.
The gameplay focuses on gathering evidence for P.I. Pepper’s latest case while fending off endless waves of thugs determined to stop them. From classic pistols to Popeye-inspired power-ups, and plenty of over-the-top cartoon violence, players will have all the tools they need to uncover Mouseburg’s darkest secrets.
MOUSE: P.I. For Hire is slated for release on April 16, 2026. It will be available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch 2, and Nintendo Switch.
