Thanks to a colourful trailer, we now know that pirates will invade Monkey Island this summer. We’re talking about Sea of Thieves: The Legend of Money Island, which was revealed today in trailer form.
The aforementioned trailer shows pirates venturing to Monkey Island, and meeting a crew of quirky folks in what looks to be some sort of fantasy world. Here’s what its YouTube blurb had to say about it:
Split across three hilarious Tall Tales packed with secrets and side-quests, Sea of Thieves: The Legend of Monkey Island invites pirates to meet classic characters, in a new narrative that brings the iconic locations of Monkey Island to the Sea of Thieves.
The adventure begins on Mêlée Island, where pirates can take in the sights, smells and roguish splendour of the island as they seek to uncover why everyone suddenly seems to think quite highly of self-proclaimed mighty pirate, and known poodle pacifier, Guybrush Threepwood. Something’s quite clearly wrong…
This love-letter to the classic adventure game series will be available to play alone or with a crew, with three Tall Tales being added over three months as free updates for all players, starting July 20th.
