As soon as it was announced that at the beginning of this year’s Gamescom we would see i Return to Monkey Island, there was no doubt what fans of classic point-and-click adventure games should pay special attention to at the event. At the same time, some of those backers began to hope that we would finally see a concrete release date. And so it happened. So the total release date by the end of this year becomes September 19/September 2022..

The specific date has been announced at the end of a new video that offers a quirky look at the novelty being created by the creators of the adventure game. Thimbleweed Park by Terrible Toybox Studio. Development, in particular, leads Ron Gilbert as well as Dave Grossman, a father figure of sorts and at least the original creator of the Monkey Island series. They offered us right away for the last few weeks several short samples out of the game thanks to the Monkey Island Monday eventorganized in social networks. So now they’ve come up with something… not much more, just different.
It seems that thanks to Terrible Toybox, publisher Devolver Digital and Lucasfilm Games division, we are waiting for another humorous pirate adventure starring Guybrush Threepwood and Elaine Marleythis time the action takes place after the events of the game Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge since 1991.
Not that you stand a chance of catching anything from a video when good old Stan should immediately charm you with his odd coat pattern and especially the suggestion of a new game from the classic series. And what else, If you pre-order Return to Monkey Island, you’ll receive a free horse armor.. Fans of Oblivion and the extremely useful DLC will probably be disappointed that horse armor will only appear here as inventory item that does not affect gameplay or puzzles.
Stan knows his marketing for sure! this is the biggest #MonkeyIslandMonday ever and it’s International Talk Like a Pirate Day and you can pre-order now and it’s less than a month away and I should be back to fixing the bugs! https://t.co/kY0OPqMiOu pic.twitter.com/TEu1rWQ0zN

Return to Monkey Island will be released on 09/19/2022 for PC, Mac (Steam) and Nintendo Switch. The price has been set at a pleasant level of 22.99 euros. and below you can see minimum hardware requirements. As expected, this is not very much, only 8 GB of RAM looks strange against the background of other parameters. Maybe it’s necessary because of the horse armor.
