Fumi Games and PlaySide Studios are teaming up with pop culture titan Funko for the first-ever merchandise collaboration tied to the upcoming 1930s cartoon-inspired FPS Mouse: P.I. For Hire. The collaboration brings the game’s hardboiled protagonist, Jack Pepper, to life as an official Funko Pop! collectible figure, marking the first piece of merchandise for the highly anticipated noir shooter.
The Pop! Jack Pepper figurine, complete with his signature trench coat, detective hat, “Micer” pistol, and a cheese stick, is available for pre-order now through Funko and select retailers for $14.99, with shipments slated for early 2026.
A Noir Hero Immortalized in Funko Form
Set in the gritty city of Mouseburg, Mouse: P.I. For Hire follows Private Investigator Jack Pepper, a war hero-turned-detective caught in a web of gang violence, police corruption, and dark conspiracies. Voiced by acclaimed actor Troy Baker (The Last of Us, BioShock Infinite), Jack embodies the classic noir archetype: tough, weary, and unafraid to face the darkness head-on.
“As big fans of Funko’s many awesome figures and merchandise ourselves, seeing Jack Pepper brought to life as a Funko Pop! collectible figure is a dream come true,” said Mateusz Michalak, founder of Fumi Games. “It’s an incredible milestone for our team, and we can’t wait for fans to bring a piece of Mouseburg home with them.”
A 1930s Cartoon World With Modern Firepower
Mouse: P.I. For Hire has already drawn attention for its unique hand-drawn 1930s cartoon aesthetic, combining rubber hose animation with fast-paced first-person shooter gameplay. Players take on the role of Jack Pepper as he navigates a black-and-white world filled with jazz, gunfire, and corruption, unraveling a noir mystery through explosive gunfights and sharp detective work.
Armed with a vintage-inspired arsenal of “toon” weapons, players will blast through gangsters, crooked cops, and other criminals while soaking in a swinging big-band jazz soundtrack that perfectly complements the era.
Coming March 19, 2026
Mouse: P.I. For Hire will officially launch on March 19, 2026, across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and both Nintendo Switch 1 and Switch 2.
