Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed for Windows

Enhanced version of the iconic platformer

Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is an adventure game from Purple Lamp Studios and the remake of the fan-favorite Disney Epic Mickey. With upgraded visuals and improved controls, the remastered edition invites fans once again to play as Mickey Mouse and embark on a journey through the forgotten world of Wasteland.

Similar to Psychonauts and Okami, the remake continues to offer a blend of platforming challenges and an imaginative world. While it keeps the core of the original platformer, Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed promises a nostalgic yet revitalized gaming experience that remains to be seen in the near future.

Fresh coat, same canvas

Mickey Mouse gets to redeem himself once again as a hero of a mess he started. In Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, you can expect a modern overhaul to the epic Wasteland adventure. The enhanced platformer boasts state-of-the-art 3D graphics and precise controls, allowing a smooth gameplay experience on various platforms. However, beneath the fresh layer of paint lies the foundation of the original game familiar to veterans.

As with most remastered editions, the Disney game features the same narrative and core gameplay. The story begins when Mickey accidentally ruins a model of a Disneyland-like world created for forgotten characters called Wasteland. He then gets pulled into this world and embarks on a Herculean journey to save Wasteland and redeem himself. As you take on the role of Mickey, all you have is a magic paintbrush.

Using either paint or thinner, you can influence the outcome of the story. As you move through various levels, you can befriend iconic characters like Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, collect virtual pins, and complete side quests. Plus, with improved controls comes additional moves such as dash, ground pound, and sprinting. The game is still under development, though, so it is only reasonable to have a wait-and-see attitude.

An epic journey repainted

Boasting a state-of-the-art visual upgrade and smooth controls, Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed restores the glory of the iconic platformer across multiple platforms for a new generation of players. While the meat of the original title remains, nostalgia-seekers and newcomers alike expect a lot with its release in the coming months. Disney fans deserve nothing less than a remastered edition that fulfills what it promises.
