For Hire’ Has Been Slightly Delayed"},"content":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n

The noir-style cartoon detective FPS Mouse: P.I. for Hire<\/a> was scheduled to arrive on Switch 2 next month, but it seems there’s been a slight delay.<\/p>\n

Instead of its 19th March 2026 release, this title will launch for Nintendo’s new hybrid system (and other platforms) on 16th April 2026. In a new notice on social media<\/a>, Fumi Games & PlaySide Studios says it wants to deliver the best game possible and just needs a few more weeks:<\/p>\n

“As we approach the final stages of development, we want to ensure we are taking the extra time and care needed to make Mouse: P.I. for Hire an experience to remember. We remain unwavering in our goal to deliver you the best game we can, and that will take just an extra few weeks.”<\/p>\n

The same update mentions how the team is excited to share “more of the game” with followers in the lead-up to the release, so expect more updates soon! This isn’t actually the first time Mouse: P.I. for Hire has been delayed. It also follows the announcement of the Switch 2 version in October last year.<\/p>\n

You can find out a little more about this game in our previous story here on Nintendo Life<\/a> and an official developer “deep dive” documentary below. When it arrives, players can apparently expect “fast-paced FPS combat” and a thrilling single-player campaign with over 20 levels.<\/p>\n
