Can You Meet Mickey Mouse in Lethal Company? It's Complicated
Lethal Company version 47 had Mickey Mouse on the thumbnail. In this article, we explain whether or not you can meet this character in the game.
Lethal Company is a cooperative horror game, in which together with other players you will have to get scrap metal from various moons and sell it. However, this is not an easy task, mainly because of the various monsters living there, which are increasing in number with each update. In the v47 patch, a thumbnail suggested that the game would feature Mickey Mouse, among others. In this article we will clarify whether the iconic Disney character exists in the game.
Is Mikey Mouse in Lethel Company?
With the arrival of 47 update to Lethal Company, the thumbnail representing this patch featured Mickey Mouse. The community speculated that this famous character had then been added to the game. Unfortunately, nothing of the sort happened. Mickey Mouse is not part of the latest update.
The truth is that the thumbnail that featured Mickey Mouse was quickly swapped on Steam by the developers, so there is a lot of speculation as to whether this was a joke by Zeekerss or a potential leak suggesting that he will be added in the future.
Is it possible for Mickey Mouse to appear in the Lethal Company?
The answer to that question is: maybe. This is possible as there has been a lot of buzz recently that Mickey Mouse from a short cartoon film titled Steamboat Willie, which premiered in 1928, will finally end up in the public domain. This means that no copyright will protect this particular character anymore, and other U.S. citizens will be able to use the mouse image for their own purposes.
Copyright laws may vary from country to country. Therefore, in some parts of the world, Mickey is still under legal protection.
The above information gives hope that the developers of the Lethal Company game may add this character to their production in the future. However, we should be patient and wait for confirmed information by Zeekerss. In our opinion, it's only a matter of time until a dedicated community creates a mod that adds Mickey Mouse as a monster to stalk other players on various moons!
