MOUSE: P.I. For Hire protagonist will be voiced by Troy Baker

MOUSE: P.I. For Hire

PlaySide Publishing and developer Fumi Games shared a new trailer for MOUSE: P.I. For Hire, revealing Troy Baker will voice the protagonist, Jack Pepper.

Baker is known for his starring roles in various blockbuster games ranging from The Last of Us, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, BioShock, and more.

The famed voice actor will star as Private Investigator Jack Pepper, the game’s lead protagonist, described as a former war hero turned P.I. that lives in a world “where danger lurks in the smallest mouse hole.” His story begins with a damsel in distress, though it only scratches the surface of Mouseburg’s seedy underbelly – spiraling into a web of intrigue, involving murder, corruption and the unlikeliest of enemies.

“I have been following the development of MOUSE: P.I. For Hire since it was first teased,” Troy Baker said in a press release. “Its art style, gameplay and 1930s film-noir aesthetic continue to win me over. I cannot wait to keep working with the team to bring Jack Pepper to life and hope to have some exciting things to share as we get closer to launch!”

Here’s a rundown on the new weapons, plus the new trailer:

Live out your sci-fi dreams with these “experimental” weapons, each providing a unique but devastating way of taking down Mouseburg’s seedy underbelly:

  • CLEAN-D Automatic Turpentine Cleanser – The Turpentine Gun: A must-have for every household, the Turpentine Gun is capable of literally erasing the harshest of “stains”, with its patented mixture of toxins and corrosive design. Clean up the streets of Mouseburg with this nifty appliance!
  • COOL-D Cold Steam Applier – The Freeze Gun: Stay frosty with the Freeze Gun, an icy device that can keep your cheese fresh and freeze your foes in place (side effects may include accidental shattering). Forget the ice box and be one of the first in the world to try out its arctic breeze!
  • MIND-D Self-Aware Attitude Changer – The Conscious Gun: Our most mesmerizing product yet, the Conscious Gun is all about hypnotizing and subduing the competition. Making friends has never been so mind-blowingly easy, especially at these low-low prices!

MOUSE: P.I. For Hire is set to launch across Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, PS4, and PS5 sometime later in 2025.
