The Epic Mickey team consisted of a large number of staff. For that title, nearly 180 people were brought in.

Warren Spector’s new project – which everyone believes is Epic Mickey 2 at this point – is made up of an even greater amount of employees. Spector told GamesIndustry,  “we have over 700 people around the world working on our new game now.”

That’s roughly four times as much as the original Epic Mickey team!

So this is a little bit awkward. Junction Point’s Warren Spector has opened up on improvements he would make to Epic Mickey, but we all know a sequel is on the way – and it should be announced next week. Spector says he would improve the game’s camera, would bring it to additional platforms, and would include co-op and full voice acting. Two of these points were mentioned in a newsletter distributed by Disney.

Spector also revealed that Epic Mickey “was the best-selling single-platform game the company has ever done” and once again expresses interest in making a new DuckTales game (as well as a Marvel title).

Head past the break for Spector’s commentary.

We’re going to get Epic Mickey 2 news sooner rather than later, and it now seems as though the first information will be revealed in one week.

GameTrailers TV is teasing “a blowout of rather large proportions” for Warren Spector’s new project. The show will be debuting the first trailer and gameplay of the game which, based on previous clues, has to be some sort of sequel to Epic Mickey.

“A Blowout of Rather Large Proportions
GTTV will have the world exclusive reveal trailer and first gameplay anywhere of Warren Spector’s next yet-to-be-announced game. It’s going to be …notably significant.”

We should be getting followup reports at the end of the month. Nintendo Power’s next issue will likely focus on Epic Mickey 2, and Disney will be holding a conference to make an official announcement.
