Disney Illusion Island: Mickey and Friends Adventure Expands to New Platforms
The acclaimed platformer Disney Illusion Island, initially launched exclusively on Nintendo Switch in 2023 to positive reception, is set to broaden its reach. Gamers on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC will soon be able to experience this engaging adventure starring Mickey Mouse and his companions this May. An enhanced iteration of the title is scheduled for release on these additional platforms.
Embark on a Monoth Adventure with Mickey & Friends
This updated release, titled Disney Illusion Island Starring Mickey & Friends, retains the cooperative gameplay of the original.

Together, they will explore the diverse biomes of Monoth, an original world specifically crafted for this platforming experience.
