Has Epic Mickey 2 finally been confirmed? Apparently so, according to a recent newsletter from Disney.
The newsletter revealed leaked information about the game, revealing what platforms it would be coming too, cooperative multiplayer aspects and also when the game is planned to release. All traces of the newsletter have since been taken down, but originally Stitch Kingdom posted up an article quoting what the newsletter said (read below).
Last year, Disney sent out surveys asking whether fans would like to see a sequel happen, which even included potential box art images. Similar information was also mentioned, including the cooperative multiplayer, where players could control Oswald and fly around like a helicopter with his ears.
Disney Epic Mickey 2 is the latest game in the critically acclaimed Disney Epic Mickey videogame series. In this all-new action-platforming game available for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii, Mickey embarks on an epic journey and is pulled back into a world filled with Disney’s forgotten characters. Players can choose to play single-player as Mickey or for the first time players can also choose 2-player split screen mode. In the 2 player mode one person can play as Mickey wielding magic paint and paint thinner to dynamically change the world and the second player can play as Oswald the Lucky Rabbit - Walt Disney’s first cartoon star - with the power to fly like a helicopter and use electricity to fight or friend enemies and solve challenges. Team-up and choose your path to save this forgotten world because the choices you make will alter the story and change the end of the game!
