Ron Gilbert working on new game

EuroGamer has reported that Ron Gilbert, the legendary designer behind the first two Monkey Island games and Maniac Mansion, is working on a new title, and is currently pitching the game to publishers.

According to his weblog, Gilbert is travelling to Paris next month, where he will meet with a publisher. The name of the publisher has not yet been mentioned. However, both Vivendi Universal and Ubisoft are possible candidates, as they are based in Paris.

Not much has been revealed about the game, but according to EuroGamer, Gilbert has not ruled out that it's going to be an adventure. He has been quoted in saying "Just curious, and I'm not saying it is or isn't, but why would you assume it's not an adventure?"

Adventure Gamers will bring more information on Gilbert's new title when it is available.
