Developer Fumi Games has announced that MOUSE will be released for the PC via Steam in 2025.
Here’s a description of the new game from Fumi, which the developer has described as being a “grandboomer shooter,” one that will apparently get the adrenaline pumping with black-and-white visuals inspired by the earliest cartoons:
MOUSE boasts a unique visual style inspired by the charm of 1930s rubber hose animation, transporting players to a nostalgic era of early cartoons. Assume the role of a private detective navigating a noir city teeming with gangs, mobs, and characters from the dark side. Unravel a quest for justice in a noir city mired in chaos, corruption, and vibrant energy, utilizing a diverse arsenal of weapons, power-ups, and explosives to thwart the takeover by corrupt politicians. The game’s playful weaponry and distinctive health display, coupled with enemies behaving like cartoon characters, add a lighthearted twist to traditional FPS gameplay.
“MOUSE is incredibly important for us – so we want to make sure Mouse would live up to all of its expectations,” said Mateusz Michalak, CEO of Fumi Games. “We wanted to create a game that combines our love for animation and shooters. We are keen on collaborating closely with our community to craft a game that truly resonates with players.”
“As development advances, we’ll unveil more details whenever possible. But in the meantime, know that our much dedicated and talented team is working hard to bring you the finest grandboomer cartoon shooter ever created,” he added.
MOUSE is now available for wishlisting on Steam ahead of its planned release in 2025.
The game will also be available on PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch platforms, according to Fumi’s website.
