Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge gets a facelift!
It’s been almost 20 years (1991) since the second game in the very popular Monkey Island series, Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge, was released. Monkey Island is a adventure point and click game with a wannabe pirate as the main character named Guybrush Threepwood!
Due to the series popularity the team behind Monkey Island 1 & 2 decided to release updated versions of the two first games with new improved graphics, voices and music. The games still contains all the same great characters, dialogs and gameplay.
The first game was released in 1990 and it’s updated version last summer in 2009. The 2009 version is named Monkey Island: The Secret of Monkey Island – Special Edition. 2010 is the release year for Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge – Special Edition! Both updated versions contain new re-imagined contemporary art which is hand-drawn with animations in high definition, re-mastered music score presented in full orchestrated detail, a complete voice over with the original cast of Monkey Island, Scene-for-scene hot swap which allows transition between the special edition and the classic at anytime, anywhere. LucasArts is also putting in a new hint system, in-game audio commentary and bonus art!
