Issues fixed

Crashing at launch (Retail)

This fix is ​​no longer needed on steam version, has been officially fixed with the February 2021 patch.[2]
The game will crash upon launch on a PC configuration with more than 4 Cores (excluding virtual cores, which would actually be 10 total cores)
  1. Download this file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/m8ewe5w8slf3zuv/EM2_FIX.zip
  2. Extract the archive.
  3. Copy "dinput8.dll" and paste it into the game directory: Normal directory for the Steam version = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Disney Epic Mickey 2"

Notes

Roughly explained, this file tricks the game telling it that the system has 4 cores, while it actually has more. The game itself does not seem to behave badly on a setup with many cores, it's just about a core count check.
