A recent graphics comparison has put Epic Mickey: Rebrushed head-to-head on Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Nintendo Switch, highlighting measurable technical gains on the new hardware.

Developed by Purple Lamp and rooted in an original concept from designer Warren Spector, Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is a 3D platformer that returns Mickey Mouse to Wasteland, a realm of forgotten Disney characters.

The remake modernizes the original with updated visuals, refined controls and new movement abilities.

The comparison video makes the technical differences clear.

On Nintendo Switch 2 the game consistently targets 60 frames per second, whereas the Nintendo Switch version targets 30 frames per second.

Reporters noted that load times are also markedly better on the new console: the Switch 2 cut a shown loading instance to roughly three seconds compared with about eleven seconds on Nintendo Switch.

In terms of on-screen presentation, the video demonstrates a resolution increase and distinct lighting differences on Switch 2, while overall art direction and assets appear consistent between versions.

Purple Lamp’s remake preserves the core gameplay pillars of the franchise.

Players still navigate Wasteland armed with paint and thinner, using those mechanics to restore or alter environments and influence narrative outcomes.

The game features encounters with classic characters such as Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, collectible Disney pins, and platforming levels inspired by animated shorts.

Purple Lamp added modern movement skills including dash, ground pound and sprinting, and the Switch 2 version is noted to include the Costume Pack DLC and support for mouse-style controls using the Switch 2 controller.

Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is available worldwide, including on the Nintendo eShop and in retail channels.

The release includes a free upgrade path from Nintendo Switch to Nintendo Switch 2 for existing owners.

For players and industry observers, the Switch 2 comparison underscores common generational improvements—higher framerates, faster storage-driven load times and modest visual enhancements—while reaffirming that remakes can preserve original design intent even as they leverage new hardware capabilities.

For further viewing, the comparison footage visually demonstrates the framerate and loading differences discussed above and serves as a useful reference for anyone tracking Switch 2 performance improvements and third-party support.
