LucasArts announced at a Game Developers Conference related party tonight that The Secret Of Monkey Island 2 is getting a Special Edition. The Special Edition will contain all of the things you would expect based on the Special Edition of the original Monkey Island, such as high-definition art, remastered music, and the ability to switch from old school graphics to the updated look (an oddly fun device in the Special Edition of the first game).
In addition to the normal trappings, however, LucasArts’ Craig Derrick said that the Special Edition will be getting new controls as well. According to Mr. Derrick, “In addition to the point-and-click interface, we’ve added the ability to move Guybrush around, so you feel more connected to him”.
The Monkey Island 2: Special Editionwill be released on the PSN, XBLA, iPhone, and PC in the Summer of 2010.
