Unmask the Rodent Underworld: MOUSE: P.I. For Hire Drops Fresh Title Reveal Trailer

1930s-Inspired FPS Gets a Fresh Trailer with Action-Packed Sneak Peeks and Gameplay Features

Melbourne, Australia - August 19, 2024 - Playside Studios, in partnership with Fumi Games - has unveiled a brand new trailer showcasing new gameplay, key art and a new tagline for the upcoming 1930s noir cartoon-inspired FPS, MOUSE: P.I. For Hire

The freshly released trailer serves up a taste of the electrifying action that awaits, featuring an array of classic yet creatively twisted weaponry that Pepper will use to tackle the nefarious rodent mobsters. From The Mauser, a classic, multishot pistol and P.I. Pepper’s trusty right hand to The Turpentine Gun, a handy tool to erase enemies from their existence, each tool in Pepper’s arsenal is designed to bring out the noir grit and cartoon chaos that defines MOUSE: P.I. For Hire.

 

The trailer also begins to scratch the surface of the darker side of Mouseburg’s seedy underbelly, and shares and early preview of just some of the hand-crafted biomes players can explore at launch next year: 

  • Marina - Mouseburg’s Port and Dock district. It’s seen better economic times.

  • Film Studio – The premiere movie studio, home to various unique set locations

  • Swamps - Mouseburg’s marshlands. Beware what lurks beneath the surface!

  • Sewers - A vast underground system of subway tunnels and sewers, and home to Mouseburg’s moonshine transport network

MOUSE: P.I. For Hire is available to wishlist on Steam now. Join the Discord community and follow the game on Twitter, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook to stay up to date on all things MOUSE: P.I. For Hire.
