As of today, January 1, 2024, Mickey Mouse is in the public domain. To be exact, this applies only to his original 1928 version, which appeared in the animated short Steamboat Willie. Some developers decided to take advantage of this to reveal today an interesting game that Disney probably won't like.
It's Infestation 88, a horror game that will put a very sinister spin on the company's popular character. As you can imagine, the project has caught many people's attention, since it presents a terrifying Mickey Mouse now that his version from decades ago can be used freely.
This is Infestation 88, the Mickey Mouse horror game
The studio Nightmare Forge Games revealed this morning Infestation 88, a horror and survival title that will undoubtedly catch the attention of Disney and all its fans. It is a proposal that can be enjoyed alone or with up to 3 other players.
The game takes us to 1988, the year in which a rat infestation got out of control and created true abominations. Your mission will be to survive and use different elements of the levels to escape. However, the task will not be easy.
Around you there will be all sorts of threats, including a macabre version of the first Mickey Mouse that will chase you wherever you go. The game is in development for PC and, for now, has no confirmed release date. We only know that it will debut sometime in 2024.
According to its creators, the game is inspired by Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey to present the iconic Disney character from a new perspective. The title will feature character customization features and the developers promised support for Nvidia's DLSS. Below you can see a trailer:
