Overview
Return to Monkey Island is a 2022 point-and-click adventure game developed by Terrible Toybox and published by Devolver Digital in association with Lucasfilm Games. It is the sixth installment in the Monkey Island series, and was first released for macOS, Nintendo Switch, and Windows on September 19, 2022. Ports were later released for Linux, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, iOS, and Android. The story follows series protagonist Guybrush Threepwood as he searches for the real secret of Monkey Island.
Return to Monkey Island was the first Monkey Island game by the series' creator, Ron Gilbert, since Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (1991), and its story continues from the events of that game. Gilbert worked on the first two Monkey Island games before leaving the development company, LucasArts, in 1992. Further installments were developed by LucasArts and Telltale Games without him. The Walt Disney Company acquired the rights to Monkey Island when it purchased Lucasfilm in 2012; in 2019, Gilbert negotiated to create a new Monkey Island with designer Dave Grossman, who had also worked on the first two games. Return to Monkey Island was announced in April 2022. Dominic Armato reprised his role as the protagonist, Guybrush Threepwood. The game received generally positive reviews.
