Devolver Digital, Horrible Toybox and Lucasfilm Video games have confirmed a launch date for Return to Monkey Island, which will launch on Nintendo Swap subsequent month.
Guybrush Threepwood – intrepid hero, leather-based jacket salesman, mighty pirate – units out on a brand new swash-buckling journey via the Caribbean in an effort to uncover the reality behind the tangled historical past of Monkey Island’s most well-known secret as soon as and for all.
Whereas Guybrush and the evil LeChuck look sure to conflict on the excessive seas as soon as extra, different previous pals and foes make their return and a brand new crew of Pirate Leaders arrive on the scene to spoil the occasion.
Guybrush’s real love Elaine Marley has turned her focus away from governing, and the intrepid hero feels “adrift and unfulfilled” after by no means discovering the Secret of Monkey Island. In the meantime, younger pirate leaders led by Captain Madison have dethroned the previous guard from energy, Melee Island has taken a flip for the more serious, and famed businessman Stan has been imprisoned for “marketing-related crimes.”
Monkey Island collection originators Ron Gilbert and Dave Grossman have penned this sequel, which is delivered to life via new visuals by Rex Crowle (Knights & Bikes, Tearaway) and among the voice solid from the unique Monkey Island.
Return to Monkey Island will launch digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Swap worldwide on nineteenth September 2022. Those that pre-order could have the possibility to “start their journey with a extremely unique and fully ineffective Horse Armor of their stock.”
