We’ve known about Epic Mickey since forever, but Disney has continued the publisher tradition of pretending press releases are the only way to confirm something, so try and act surprised when we reveal that Wii-exclusive Epic Mickey has been officially announced this day! Yes, the confirmation of the game’s existence has just been confirmed. Good for us!

Fortunately, Disney didn’t turn up with this announcement empty handed. A considerable bucketload of artwork and screenshots have been revealed for the game, which has been officially slated for a Fall 2010 release. I personally really like the retro-styled Mickey the general look of the whole thing. It’s certainly very striking and original, if nothing else.

There has been some skepticism since the first screens were revealed, but what do you think? Has finally seeing the game in the flesh turned you off or made you more excited?

BURBANK, Calif. – (October 28, 2009) - Disney Interactive Studios today announced the development of Disney Epic Mickey, an adventure-platforming game with light role-playing elements for the Wii^TM home video game console.
