Epic Mickey: The Power of Two US sales dreadful

MCV Staff 17th January 2013 Business News

Warren Spector’s original vision of a four-game Epic Mickey saga may be relegated to a pipe dream.

The LA Times reports the Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two sold just 270,000 copies in the US by the conclusion of last year. In comparison, the first Epic Mickey moved 1.3m in around the same time frame.

The game scored poorly on Metacritic across all platforms, scoring a 64 per cent on Wii and only a 59 per cent on both Xbox 360 and PS3.

Disney has yet to make any official announcement regarding the fate of the franchise going forward.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
