Having defeated the evil ghost pirate LeChuck in his first adventure, pirate extraordinaire
Guybrush Threepwood sets his sights on the treasure of Big Whoop. Legendary treasures
however, come with legendary challenges and Guybrush will have to use his wits and humor to
prove himself the greatest pirate in the Caribbean. Voodoo dolls, spitting contests and
amusement parks are just some of the challenges Guybrush must overcome as he meets old
friends, fights familiar enemies and uses every single ounce of his wits to become the most
celebrated pirate ever.

Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge expands on the highly successful
The Secret of Monkey Island®: Special Edition. Signature special edition features including

interest in the environment. Pirate historians will “arr” with delight with in-game audio

classic Monkey Island fans and newcomers alike to experience perhaps the most beloved
installment in the franchise ever.”
