Described as a "faithful remake" of the 2010 action-adventure platformer that tells a darker Mickey Mouse story, Epic Mickey: Rebrushed has been developed by Purple Lamp in collaboration with Disney Games. And with Warren Spector (Director of the original Epic Mickey) also assisting in game development duties, he understands the level of expectation, and states that "I’ve received more heartfelt fan mail from players of all ages about Disney Epic Mickey than any other project I’ve worked on – a true indicator of the timelessness of this game... That my team and I contributed to that legacy is truly an honor and I’m delighted that old fans and new will get to enjoy the adventures of Mickey and Oswald in Wasteland once again".
With Epic Mickey: Rebrushed being released later this month on all major gaming platforms (PS5, PS4, PC, XBox One, XBox Series, and Nintendo Switch), I spoke to Jason Mallett (Game Director, Purple Lamp) and Marcel Arioli (Lead Designer, Purple Lamp) about the game - including details on how Rebrushed differs from the original game, whether there's been any studio interference from Disney with regards to the remake, and what the future holds for the Epic Mickey franchise... Enjoy!
