In Mouse: PI For Hire you play as private detective Jack Pepper, voiced by Troy Baker, in a noir-inspired first-person shooter inspired by 1930s animation. The action takes place in the town of Mouseburg, and Jack is initially hired to lend a hand a “damsel in distress”. However, things take a different turn as the case delves deeper into the criminal and corrupt world that lies beneath the city’s surface. There will be many areas to explore, including city streets, canals, a casino, a movie studio and the docks. In all of these locations you will find loot and collectibles, as well as clues that will lend a hand Jack solve the case.
Mouse: PI For Hire will be released on PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series XS and Xbox One.
