Return to Monkey Island has become the fastest selling game in the series

Devolver Digital announced on Twitter that the adventure Return to Monkey Island released by it has become the fastest-selling part of the series.

The game was created by the original author Ron Gilbert, who left the open ending in Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge, which was released in 1991.

The publisher did not go into details and name the numbers, only reminded that the release took place a month ago on Nintendo Switch and PC.

Nevertheless, this is good news for the developer in the face of Terrible Toybox, although the announcement of the sequel Return to Monkey Island in the near future is unlikely.

The game takes place many years after the end of the battle between Guybrush Threepwood and his sworn enemy, the zombie pirate Lechak.

The love of the protagonist Elaine Marley was distracted from the management of the island, and Guybrush himself never revealed the secret of Monkey Island and just goes with the flow.

Young pirate captains led by Captain Madison have removed the old Guard from power, things are getting worse on Massacre Island, and the famous Stan has been jailed for "advertising crimes".

Players are waiting for the "old school" gameplay with point-and-click mechanics, an extensive system of dialogues and a hint system for beginners who decide to enjoy the story.
