Remember Fumi Games’ Mouse? You know. The black-n-white first-person shooter that has Disney-like cartoon-ish graphics? Well, the game has been renamed to Mouse: P.I. For Hire. Moreover, you can find below a new gameplay trailer for it.
Mouse: P.I. For Hire will look like those cartoons from the 1930s with a noir vibe. The game will be all about the story, taking you on an exciting adventure through a city full of danger and corruption.
In this game, you’ll step into the shoes of John Mouston, a private detective. You’ll get to use cool weapons from the mid-century like the Revolver, Tommy Gun, Hammer, Carcano, and Dynamite. And yes, you’ll also be able to solve mysteries and take on various challenges.
Players will unravel a quest for justice in a noir city mired in chaos, corruption, and vibrant energy. In your quest, you’ll have all sorts of cool weapons, power-ups, and explosives to use. The game also promises to be playful and fun. Enemies will also act like characters from cartoons, which will add a funny twist to traditional FPS gameplay.
PlaySide plans to release the game sometime in 2025. Back in April 2024, the publisher also shared some preliminary minimum requirements. So, be sure to check them out.
Mouse: P.I. For Hire is a game I’m really looking forward to. So, fingers crossed it will be worth the wait.
Enjoy the trailer and stay tuned for more!
John is the founder and Editor in Chief at DSOGaming. He is a PC gaming fan and highly supports the modding and indie communities. Before creating DSOGaming, John worked on numerous gaming websites. While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
