Loach Posted April 28, 2003 Posted April 28, 2003 Is there any concrete evidence that Monkey Island 5 will come out?
James Isaac Posted April 30, 2003 Posted April 30, 2003 Also in one of the MI games (I can't remember which) the voodoo lady says something like: "I have an unbreakable 5 game contract with Lucas Arts!"
PROGAME Posted May 1, 2003 Posted May 1, 2003 10x, i was looking for that info too i hope it will be as funny as mi3
EnchiladaMan Posted May 1, 2003 Posted May 1, 2003 I know this may be trivial, but the quote is "I have an unbreakable five game deal with lucasarts," (when Guybrush asks why she keeps popping up.) As far as concrete evidence, well, the guys at lucasarts say that they have a ton of ideas for Monkey Island, and they say they will definitely revisit the worlds of Monkey Island sometime in the future. That's the best I can come up with offhand.

Yup. It's in Escape From Monkey Island (MI4), when you encounter the Voodoo Lady.
SCUMMinator2k Posted May 7, 2003 Posted May 7, 2003 That's hardly concrete - for all we know the Voodoo Lady could have a cameo in Grim Fandango II. But LucasArts released a press thingy a while back and MI5 was supposedly on the list of games in development for 2003/04.
Natty Posted May 7, 2003 Posted May 7, 2003 I wonder if they might base MI5 (should it happen) on that pirate movie with Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom and I forget who else? Geoffrey Rush I think? Based on the pirate ride at Disney Land. We all know MI was based on that ride and that the movie is gonna be based on the ride. Does anyone get what I'm trying to say?
Joshi Posted May 7, 2003 Posted May 7, 2003 Are you perhaps trying to say that Disney stole the idea from Monkey Island?! Or is it that pink monkeys stole your washing machine?

That was probably just a mistake. But I do remember that on the GFN, there was a quote from an interview with a worker from LucasArts. He said that there was definetly going to be a MI5 some time in the future, and that there might be a GF2! I'll see if I can find it.
James Isaac Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 I found it! Here it is: PCZ: Are there any other popular franchises that LucasArts will re-visit? There'll definately be another Monkey Island game. You've seen four incredibly well-done versions of Monkey Island, and there's an immense amount of stories that remain to be told within that series. And not only that series -- I mean Grim Fandango especially, we'd love to revisit that one day. Sadly, Tim Schaffer probably won't be involved, but we don't think that means the property has to suffer at all. You look at somebody like Sean Clarke, who's involved as director of Full Throttle II. Sean's extremely talented, and I think he'll bring an interesting perspective to Full Throttle, in the same way someone could do with a sequel to Grim Fandango.
AnxiousApe Posted May 18, 2003 Posted May 18, 2003 There was a long gap between MI2 and 3, so who knows when MI5 will be made?
James Isaac Posted May 18, 2003 Posted May 18, 2003 I think they'll make it after Sam & Max 2 and Full Throttle 2 has come out. They'll see what was wrong with them, then make those improvements on MI5. But Sam & Max 2 is coming out next year, and the game would take about a year to develop, so it could be quite a wait!
