Is there a new monkey island 6 getting released??

[comethere]

If there is then when is it expected? coz the ending of tales of monkey island was a teaser

If anyone has any idea let me know

Tales wasnt actually part of the main LucasArts series, so if LucasArts continued it probably wouldnt pick up from Tales. Telltale hasnt said anything about a season 2 of Tales.

This is false. Tales IS a part of the main series, as you'll notice the big Lucas Arts logo in the beginning, and the fact that Lucas Arts licensed it to TTG so the series could continue. Tales is MI5.

Both TTG and LA have spoken on the issue.

It's already been explained how Tales is MI5.. But even if LucasArts decided not to let Telltale work on the next game, and wanted to work on it themselves, I'd guarantee that it would continue on from Tales.

It's been a hugely sucessful game, why would they want to annoy their fans by retconning a big part of the story that was both well recieved and made a lot of money?

Season two will definately happen, although whether it will be made by Telltale or whether LA will get more money hungry and make their own remains to be seen. I suspect the latter has legal issues regarding character rights though.

I'm sick of people saying this without knowing what they're talking about. It's like they WANT Tales not to be MI5. Don't listen to these people!

I feel the same way, both about people who want to say that Tales isn't MI5 or isn't canon and about people who want Curse and Escape removed from canon as well.

Isn't Tales set a good bit in the future, if Lucasarts did there own thing I think they'd follow from Escape...though maybe they'd rather not associate themselves too strongly with that game. I dunno, it's a headscratcher

[Powerlord]

Actually, no, it's been confirmed that Tales takes place after MI5... so it's technically MI6.

[PecanBlue]

I'm a little iffy on making a game that takes place between two already released games from a series that regularly always continues from the story of the last game. Maybe it's just my OCD talking, but then who would care about the story of the in-between game if you know which characters stay alive at the end and/or other things such as in the case of the Voodoo Lady?

STOP SAYING THAT. STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT. THAT WAS A JOKE AAAAAAUAGHHGGAUHGAUHGUAHGUAHGUHAUGH

:headexplode:

[Falanca]

Maybe it can be a "Monkey Island 5 II", like how Final Fantasy did it. There are so much differences between all entries of the franchise I mean, it would be weird if Telltale made a ToMI 2 (with the name MI6) that visually resembles ToMI 1.

Sick of this comment popping up everywhere.

I'm hoping that Telltale gets to do a season 2, they know the story and the backgrounds on the new characters better than everyone else.

Just curious, where did some hear TMI was MI 5 and where did some hear it was MI-after-5 ?

I'm suddenly reminded of Star Wars Episode 3...

[PecanBlue]

Which sucked, right?

We called it Monkey Island 6 for a while as a joke, but saying "there was a fifth game in between" doesn't mean you should actually see that game, or that it actually exists. The whole point was to say "time has passed between Escape from Monkey Island and Tales of Monkey Island -- the characters have gone on some more adventures, grown a little, learned some things, and probably healed some continuity wounds in the process." The point wasn't "there will be another game between Escape and Tales" -- that would be silly! You'd spend the whole game assembling a cursed cutlass, chasing LeChuck down to make him stop harvesting monkeys, and then right before you could go to take out LeChuck and save Elaine, the game would end and say "To be continued in Tales of Monkey Island!" Actually, that would be pretty amazing, but it would definitely be unfulfilling, I think!

I completely agree with him. Honestly, I'm happier using my imagination and at most I would want to see a comic or machinima or something.

[Todesreiter]

So i Hope LA will make a non-episodic new MI Game
with Bill tiller vor the graphics and ron Gilbert to Tell His
Story After MI2 and perhaps Full the Part between EMI
and ToMI... also i hope telltale will make ToMI Season 2
almost near in the future!!!
