A new gameplay trailer for the upcoming indie shooter Mouse showcases the game’s cartoon action and fantastic 1930s-inspired graphics while revealing a release window.
Back in MayPolish developer Fumi Games released a very early preview Mouse. Even in this early state, with boxy grayscale and temporary graphics, the shooter looked impressive and unique thanks to its black-and-white, classic cartoon style and animations. Now, just before the new year, Fumi Games has released a longer trailer showing off an even better looking version of Mouse
Mouseis the new gameplay trailer (h/t IGN) features new weapons (including a pump-action shotgun) and enemies not seen in the first teaser. We also get a look at how combat will work in this cartoon world, with the player seemingly able to run around and blow heads off, all in gorgeous black and white animation. I particularly liked the part where an enemy catches fire and, blinking his eyes, turns into a cartoonish pile of ash. Nice!
Fumi Games describes Mouse as a “dark and noir-esque FPS shooter that draws inspiration from classic 1930s cartoons.” Players take on the role of a private detective who must explore a “noir city full of gangs, mobs and dark side characters.” Fumi says that enemies will behave like cartoon characters, which – combined with the visuals – should produce results Mouse
I was excited to try it out Mouse of that previous teaser in May. This latest trailer excites me even more, It looks like the game is progressing well and the action seems pretty fast and explosive. Finally, a Cup head for boomer shooter lovers.
As already mentioned, Mouse is scheduled to appear on PC in 2025. On Fumi’s official websiteIt also confirms that there are plans to bring the cartoon shooter to PlayStation, Xbox and Switch.
