Mouse is an upcoming FPS heavily inspired by old-school Disney cartoons

Mickey Mouse has entered the public domain — or at least his original version has. The cartoon mouse first appeared in Steamboat Willie in 1928, which means it entered the public domain in 2024. And, as has become a tradition for beloved characters entering their copyright-free era, there are already dozens of weird knockoffs and parodies of Disney’s most famous mascot.

Less than a day after Steamboat Willie officially entered the public domain, several virtual adventures starring the world's most famous mouse have begun popping up online.

Steamboat Willie is now in the public domain, so as has come to be expected, someone has made a horror game starring a grotesque villain inspired by the original Mickey Mouse.

Mickey Mouse may be known as an expressly family-friendly figure, but an upcoming horror game is taking a significantly darker route with the character. Subverting children's media as horror experiences isn't a new idea at this point, with recent years seeing a major trend of grim re-imaginings. In many cases, these fresh takes can ultimately loop back around to feeling childish in their cheap ploys for attention, but Mickey Mouse is one case where there's actually some potential to make something interesting out of the material.

The tabletop card game, , has been incredibly difficult to come by since its release, but has finally started to be more commonly found in both local game stores and larger mass retail locations. This means many more players will have a chance to experience the fun card game for themselves, and the conveniently packaged starter decks that are available for purchase can make this easier, especially compared to other prepackaged options like the extensive Illumineer's Trove. With five varying starter decks available to choose from, it may still be hard to know which one is the best.

Whether or not MachineGames and Bethesda’s Indiana Jones title would be a multiplatform release was a frequently asked question (to say the very least) for months following its launch. Ordinarily, you would take that for granted for a game carrying a major IP’s license, but this is, of course, being developed by a first party Xbox studio. Earlier this year, however, it was confirmed that Indiana Jones will indeed be skipping PlayStation and releasing only for Xbox and PC, and according to Disney – parent company of Lucasfilm and owner of the Indiana Jones IP – that makes “financial and strategic sense” for the game.

A new is set to release later this month. Developer Dlala Studios has announced a free batch of content for the game.

If you have a lot of experience with video games, it can be easy to infer the basic mechanics of a game you’re starting for the first time. But sometimes those assumptions can be used against you. That’s something I learned first-hand during a recent interaction with a devious tanuki in an old-school roleplaying game.
