Disney Games, in collaboration with developer Dlala Studios, has launched Disney Illusion Island globally, marking the release with a new trailer featuring animated vignettes and game play footage. The title is a local cooperative 2D platform adventure video game for up to four players, exclusively for Nintendo Switch.
Synopsis: Experience a brand-new adventure as players join Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy on a whimsical journey through the island of Monoth. Explore this beautiful yet mysterious world to recover the three magical Tomes — powerful books used to protect the island.
This new, playable Mickey & Friends adventure features an original story brought to life with hand-drawn animation and an original, fully orchestrated score by Ivor Novello and BAFTA-nominated composer Dave Housden.
“Disney Illusion Island marks Mickey Mouse’s return to video games, and we’re honored to bring this one-of-a kind adventure to the Nintendo Switch,” said Luigi Priore, VP, Disney, Pixar and 20th Century Games. “We’re excited to see gamers jump in and explore the wonderfully hand-crafted world of Monoth with their friends and family.”
Featuring the authentic voice actors of Mickey (Bret Iwan), Minnie (Kaitlyn Robrock), Donald (Tony Anselmo) and Goofy (Bill Farmer), Disney Illusion Island allows players to explore solo or as a team with up to three friends in local co-op as they perform high-flying platforming feats, uncover secrets and take on epic boss encounters. The game also features the voice of Corey Burton, known for performing as Dale and Ludwig Von Drake in the Disneyverse.
“Disney Illusion Island has been an absolute career high for myself and the studio,” said AJ Grand-Scrutton, Creative Director/CEO, Dlala Studios. “We have absolutely loved bringing Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy back in a brand-new 2D platforming adventure and we can’t wait for players to join us in the world of Monoth!”
Disney Illusion Island is available for $39.99, exclusively for Nintendo Switch on the Nintendo eShop and at retail, beginning today.
