OH RLY

"Picks up where Monkey Island 2 left off"

>but Murray is there and they have Dominic Armato back

how innnnnteresting

Also interesting that lucasfilm games is involved at all since Disney turned them into the star wars game coal mine

Maybe it's just a rights thing?

I think it's both that and "we're here for a cheque"

Once upon a time Ron wrote an article in 2014 if he ever made another Moinkey Island

sorry 2013

He did mention it would only include 1 and 2 as canon

Apparently that changed to some(?) extent.

OH NICE

Twelve - It would be called Monkey Island 3a. All the games after Monkey Island 2 don't exist in my Monkey Island universe. My apologies to the all talented people who worked on them and the people who loved them, but I'd want to pick up where I left off. Free of baggage.

In a carnival. That doesn't mean I won't steal some good ideas or characters from other games. I'm not above that.

I looked it up and it's wild they got Dominic Armato back as apparently he's been working as a newspaper food critic for the last decade.
