Surprise! For those who are eagerly awaiting the release of Epic Mickey: Rebrushed on Nintendo Switch: THQ has shortened the wait a little with a brand new demo, now available on the Nintendo Switch eShop!

Epic Mickey: Rebrushed will be released on September 24th for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, PC and Xbox.

What is Epic Mickey: Rebrushed?

Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is an improved take on the original Epic Mickey, released on the Nintendo Wii in 2010. It was an ambitious, gritty 3D platform adventure for its time, using a paint and thinner mechanic that let you fill in or erase certain parts of the world, as well as enemies. In it, you played Mickey Mouse, who accidentally negatively affected an entire fantasy world by spilling paint thinner on a magical blueprint of the world.

The game is known for allowing the player to lean more towards Mickey’s well-known good or mischievous side depending on the choices made throughout the game. It also took place in a twisted, distorted version of a Disney theme park with a slightly unsettling art style. The idea of ​​seeing the normally cheerful Mickey Mouse in this broken world is quite a contrast. It made for a compelling concept unlike anything seen by Disney or Nintendo themselves at the time.
