[QUOTE="Admin, post: 56344, member: 1"] Return to Monkey Island will be the "conclusion" to the entire series, according to the game's charming new website. [URL='https://returntomonkeyisland.com/']The website[/URL] is presented as its own point 'n' click experience, full of interactivity drawn from the Monkey Island series. Click through to the Overview section, however and (as spotted by [URL='https://www.eurogamer.net/it-looks-like-return-to-monkey-island-will-be-the-last-in-the-series']Eurogamer[/URL]) you'll find out that Return to Monkey Island will be "the exciting conclusion to the Monkey Island series." After a very long wait – the last game in the series was Tales of Monkey Island in 2009 – fans might be dismayed to hear that this could be the final outing for the classic adventure games. It is possible that it may be designed as the end of the story, of course, and that prequels could be a future way for it to continue. It's also possible that developer Terrible Toybox is referring to this is as the conclusion of a trilogy, rather than ruling out any more Monkey Island games. Return to Monkey Island will be a direct sequel to the first two games, The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge, from original writer-director Ron Gilbert. It will ignore the events of Monkey Island games created after that point (although does reintroduce Monkey Island 3 fan-favourite, Murray the Talking Skull). We've contacted the developer for comment.
