MOUSE Events Schedule: Chapter 2 Start Time, Countdown
MOUSE, the Steamboat Willie horror experience from Myriagone, already has its next major beat on the books: a follow-up simply titled Chapter 2. The developer has it scheduled to open on January 14, 2027, billed as a direct sequel to the original escape-from-the-boat story, with about 6,600 players already signed up to be notified when it goes live.
The game has built a sizable audience in the meantime. It has pulled in about 8,500,000 visits in total and holds about 60,000 favorites, and there are usually around about 4,300 players aboard the S.S. Willie at any given time, which keeps a steady crowd in the experience through the quieter stretches between updates.
The most recent dated event, a Halloween update, wrapped up on November 1, 2026. Here is where the schedule stands as of November 4, with the next confirmed date and a rundown of what each entry involves.

Current and upcoming events
Chapter 2 (opens January 14, 2027)
Chapter 2 is framed as the sequel to the original MOUSE story, and for now the developer is keeping the specifics under wraps: the official note promises only that more details are coming and asks players to opt in for a reminder. This reads as a new story or map drop rather than a limited cosmetic giveaway, so expect fresh content rather than a single collectible. Interest is the strongest of anything on the calendar, with about 6,600 players flagged to be notified.
The event window runs from January 14 through January 30, 2027. It is set to open at 10:00 AM ET, which is 7:00 AM PT, 3:00 PM GMT, and 4:00 PM CET; the exact start and end times are listed in the schedule above.
Halloween update (ended November 1, 2026)
The Halloween update gave the island and the steamboat a seasonal makeover, with white jack-o’-lanterns lighting the setting, and added a limited Pumpkin Head to pick up near the pier. Wearing it let players run 25% longer while being chased, a small but genuine survival edge for as long as the event lasted. It was a timed item drop that ran from October 18 to November 1, 2026, so the Pumpkin Head is no longer obtainable.
