About
Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed brings the magic of Disney to life in a vibrant 3D platformer. This beautiful remake sends Mickey Mouse on an epic journey through Wasteland, a realm of forgotten Disney characters. As Mickey, you will dive into a fantastical world and, armed with paint and thinner, shape your adventure and the fate of this alternate world.

Every stroke of your magic brush matters! Use paint to restore beauty and harmony or thinner to alter your environment and uncover hidden secrets. Your choices influence Mickey’s destiny and change the outcome of this artistic odyssey. Will you become the epic hero Wasteland needs?
Encounter various iconic characters like Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Walt Disney’s first creation, as you travel between lands in Wasteland. Collect virtual Disney pins, tackle creative challenges, and uncover secrets, all while exploring classic platforming levels inspired by animated films and shorts.
Originally envisioned by Warren Spector, reimagined by Purple Lamp, Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed employs state-of-the-art visuals and improved controls to breathe new life into a beloved classic.

lol why make a new Mickey platform game when you can remake an old one and sell it for the same price. Most people who played the original either don't remember or have different lives now so what's the difference right?

I don't remember this being well received and its sequel was even worse.
What Spector needs to do is combine Deus X with Disney to give us a Kingdom Hearts style adventure.
Also the main protagonist needs clown shoes. Must have the clown shoes.

Played the demo on PS5 last night. It’s pretty solid. Plays much better than that shitty Wii version. Kinda tempted to get it.

Probably just a case of them knowing it'll go on sale, and discounts drive sales. A 30% discount probably has a similar increase in sales, regardless of the baseline price, so charging full price has a sort of logic to it.

I really *only* remember that early concept art, so I always had an interest in seeing more of the game. But yeah, I'll probably wait for an inevitable discount.
 
Played some of the demo yesterday. I'm getting this Day 1, mostly because I'm weirdly hyped to play it but also as a b-day gift for my wife. THQ Nordic deserves the support too, one of the best publishers around IMO.
