The first Monkey Island game came out in 1990 that is sequel 91 okay then there's six years until the curse of Monkey Island in 97 three years until escape from Monkey Island. There was a full nine year gap between that and tales of Monkey Island which was like the tale tale series  that was already a nostalgia piece right it was already like whoa this is wild you guys are bringing back Monkey Island. I would say this if you don't know for sure if you're on the fence about this I think you would be fine to wait until this is a little bit more especially if you're playing on the switch because I hope that there will be some like it's on game pass.
