Nightmare Forge Games announced its co-op horror game Infestation 88 with a trailer that showcased its take on the Steamboat Willie version of Mickey Mouse.
Infestation 88 Trailer and Details
Infestation 88 is a co-op horror in which you’re an exterminator treating sinister infestations caused by twisted versions of classic characters and urban legends.
In the year 1988, what was thought to be an outbreak of vermin morphed into something far more sinister. Infestation 88 is an episodic, 1-4 player co-op survival horror game in which you and your friends are exterminators called in to treat these mysterious infestations.
The involvement of Steamboat Willie’s appearance in the game came on the day the character entered the public domain, granting use of the character outside of Disney for the first time.
It wasn’t the only horror-based announcement featuring the character either, as a low-budget slasher, Mickey’s Mouse Trap, also made itself known on the same day.
Infestation 88 is set to enter Early Access on PC sometime in 2024 and can be pre-ordered on Steam now.
