E309: LUCASARTS ANNOUNCES NEW WII, PC MONKEY ISLAND, XBOX LIVE REMAKE
And so E3 coverage officially begins: first up, LucasArts has announced the revival of its classic adventure series Monkey Island with Tales of Monkey Island, a new five-part monthly episodic series for WiiWare and PC by the Telltale Games, the same studio of LucasArts vets behind both the Sam & Max revival and the Strongbad series games.
Following that, LucasArts will unveil The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition, an internally developed remake of the original game that will add “updated high definition graphics, a re-mastered musical score, and full voiceover”, exclusive to PC and Xbox Live Arcade.
The Tales series is due to launch in “a few short weeks,” with the Special Edition due “later in the summer.”
