Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two is released, early reviews out

Posted on 21:30 by john mical
The latest Disney video game "Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two", the sequel to "Disney Epic Mickey" is being released today.

The video game teams up Mickey Mouse and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. The duo go to Wasteland, an alternate world filled with 80 years of forgotten Disney characters and theme park attractions, according to Disney. Mickey has a magical paint brush that allows him to wield paint and thinner, and Oswald with his powerful remote control that allows him to command electricity.

The game, available on Wii, Wii U, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Here are a few early reviews.
IGN writes: "Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two tries to be many things. It’s a co-op game. It’s a musical. It’s a platformer with elements of choice and consequence. It’s a lovingly crafted homage to the Disney of yesteryear and its iconic theme parks."

Digital Spy writes: "Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two is the kind of ambitious sequel you would expect from a master craftsman like Warren Spector with the considerable resources of Disney behind him. There are few aspects of the 2010 original that haven't been improved or expanded on, and the result might well have been a classic had the technical issues of its predecessor been addressed too."

Gamesradar writes: "Disney’s Epic Mickey was an interesting experiment, telling a tale of the Wasteland: an amalgamation of Walt Disney's notable, but forgotten characters, worlds, and attractions. While it was full of great ideas and boundless ambition, the Wii-exclusive suffered from a litany of technical and design flaws, threatening to make Epic Mickey as forgettable as the obscure characters it referenced. But you can't keep a good mouse down, and developer Junction Point has returned but two years later with the co-op focused, multiplatform release of Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two. Sadly, it would appear that two heads, in this case, are not better than one."
