Fumi Games and publisher Playside Studios announced the delay just before the Galaxies Gaming Showcase. In a tweet, the studio stated, "We're all about giving you the best experience, and that means taking our time to get it right." The developers aim to polish this unique title, which combines a black-and-white 1930s cartoon style with action-packed shootouts and quirky humor. In Mouse P.I. For Hire, players take on the role of Jack Pepper, a private investigator in Mouseburg. Between cases, they will engage in gunfights against heavily armed gangs while exploring the city's darkest corners. The game's distinctive style pays homage to classic Mickey Mouse cartoons, but with a modern arsenal. The latest trailer confirms that Mouse P.I. retains this aesthetic, blending nostalgia with fast-paced action.
