Trailer of Monkey Island offers sneak peek at game footage
With the long-awaited return of the popular Monkey Island franchise only days away now, a new trailer has been released that offers an in-game peek at the events of Tales of Monkey Island: Chapter 1 - Launch of the Screaming Narwhal.
The video consists entirely of in-game footage, demonstrating some of the game mechanics and introducing the three stars who will be very familiar to series fans: namely, Guybrush, Elaine, and the dreaded ghost pirate LeChuck.

The full Tales of Monkey Island series will consist of five episodes that sees Guybrush sail the seven seas "in search of La Esponja Grande, a legendary sea sponge with unparalleled voodoo exfoliating abilities.
