Fumi Games has announced that MOUSE: P.I. For Hire has been delayed, and that it will now release in early 2026. According to the devs, we’ll get a specific release date on October 23rd at the Galaxies Gaming Showcase.
Mouse: P.I. For Hire will look like those cartoons from the 1930s with a noir vibe. The game will be all about the story, taking you on an exciting adventure through a city full of danger and corruption.
In this game, you’ll step into the shoes of John Mouston, a private detective. You’ll get to use cool weapons from the mid-century like the Revolver, Tommy Gun, Hammer, Carcano, and Dynamite. And yes, you’ll also be able to solve mysteries and take on various challenges.
Players will unravel a quest for justice in a noir city mired in chaos, corruption, and vibrant energy. In your quest, you’ll have all sorts of cool weapons, power-ups, and explosives to use. The game also promises to be playful and fun. Enemies will also act like characters from cartoons, which will add a funny twist to traditional FPS gameplay.
Finally, you can find its preliminary PC minimum requirements here.
Stay tuned for more!
UPDATE:
MOUSE: P.I. For Hire will be released on March 19th, 2026.

John is the founder and Editor in Chief at DSOGaming. He is a PC gaming fan and highly supports the modding and indie communities. Before creating DSOGaming, John worked on numerous gaming websites. While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
