The Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed developers are still releasing new updates for the game and the second major one has now arrived.
This "second patch" for the game fixes some issues and also makes various improvements to the game. Most notably there is a fix tied to "extra content movies" not unlocking correctly. Here's the full rundown via the official Steam game page:
Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed - Version 1.0.4 (November 27, 2024)
- Fixed an issue with extra content movies not getting unlocked correctly
- Fixed various quest progression issues from occurring
- Fixed an issue with the "An Epic Journey" and "Out of my way" achievements/trophies not triggering correctly
- Fixed an issue with the "Blue House" concept art sketch not being awarded under specific circumstances
- Fixed gargoyles that caused mickey to get stuck on them.
- Various Audio fixes and improvements
- Spelling and localisation fixes and improvements
In some related news, a sales update from Embracer (the parent company of THQ Nordic) earlier this month revealed how Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed was "well received by players but initial digital sales were slower than expected". Unfortunately, no sales figures were provided alongside this update. (via IGN).

Happy to hear that the game won't have these issues when I finally have the time to play it!
I liked it, it's a great remaster with many improvements as the free camera. But the game was published for €60 and after 2 months it is on sale at 30% on the e-shop and at 50% on Steam. Maybe if they sold it immediately for €40 it would have had better sales. And then I don't like, as a consumer, that a game I got on day 1 is already half price after just 2 months.
This was on WiiU, correct?
@Spider-Kev
As far as I know the original version of this game was a Wii exclusive. The sequel was released on the Wii U.
Edit: It is possible to play Wii games on the Wii U though.
Is the banana now yellow?
@AlleyCat This happened to me too. Purchased it in the UK for £40 from Amazon only for it to be £24 in the black Friday sales..
Still a great game, just wish I too had got it for less.
A bit sad to hear Rebrushed isn’t off to a strong start. It did launch at a rough period though. Its still fairly top of mind to play for me personally, so I might purchase it this year
@Jhena
Thanks
@Kyloctopus It had relatively good first week sales if I remember correctly. Entered within the top 10 but then the sales just dropped of a cliff...
However, it entered the physical charts again when it received a large discount a week or so back.. It might break a million across all platforms when all is said and done..
Although, overall I would have thought it would have performed better in the run up to Christmas too.
Sure would be nice if I could read the article without having to keep scrolling around to find the spot I was reading due to the ads shifting everything around. SUPER annoying.
Probably could have done with launching at £25-30 from the outset. A remaster of a Wii game that got a generally mixed reception was always going to be a tough sell at £50, even with the brand power behind it.
Definitely interested in playing this though considering the reception to this version- I was always interested in playing it on Wii but just never got around to it. With how fast this has dropped to around £20 on Steam though I think I’ll hold off until it’s sub £15 (which probably won’t be long at this rate).
I guess we will never see the sequel which needs much more work or the cancelled Epic Donald.
@Koffeeking0407 I agree. That is really annoying especially when viewing on a phone.
I wanted this game to sell enough to justify remastering 2 and maybe make a new game someday, but now I'm not sure that's happening. That's too bad; I've always had a soft spot for Epic Mickey since the original Wii version. Yesterday was the anniversary, so that must be why they updated now.
I picked it up this weekend but I've given it to someone to give to me for Christmas (adulting is fun...)
Can't wait to play.
@AlleyCat Yeah, I saw that too, and I can't help but find it a little insulting. Same thing with Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble; got it on day one for $50 only to see it at half the price 2 weeks later.
I did the thing also where I bought it like a week after launch, but it is already 35$ for Black Friday.
I knew better, I was warned… but it’s hard to turn off the “I gotta have it” switch in my brain
This was my Game of the Year, even if it has had deep discounts within a week of me purchasing it, it was still worth the £33 to me.
That thumbnail is such nightmare fuel. What the heck happened to his face??
I picked it up in the Black Friday sales, it's a cute little game. I'd really wanted it for a while but put off because I already have a backlog. But I took the time to play it a bit and it's a little too handholding at first but once it starts to open up it becomes a lot more fun. Can't go wrong with a 3d Platformer if you're into the genre really.
