However, it also incorporates and acknowledges the characters and events from later titles such as The Curse of Monkey Island (1997), Escape from Monkey Island (2000) and Tales of Monkey Island (2009).
This game focuses on the series' protagonist Guybrush Threepwood as he sets out to finally reveal the secret of the Monkey Island.
A short prelude explains the ending of the previous game, why this title is told as a flashback and an optional scrapbook available in the main menu is provided with a brief history of the events of all games.
The adventure is divided in several parts and starts on Mêlée Island where Guybrush, reprised by Dominic Amato , once again finds himself without a ship and crew to travel to Monkey Island.
Mêlée island has also changed, with Carla the swordmaster as the new governor, Elaine advocating social and health issues, and a new pirate leadership refusing to fund Guybrush's venture.
Many characters from all titles return in this game, such as Stan the salesman, Otis, Wally the map maker, the Voodoo Lady and Murray the talking skull, but also many new characters.
Next to the familiar Monkey Island and Mêlée Island there are entirely new locations such as Brr Muda and Terror Island.
A classic point-and-click interface is used to experience the story, talk to characters and solve puzzles.
When hovering over a character or object, usually one or two options are provided: to examine and to interact.
Items can be picked up and are stored in an inventory where they can be combined or used in the environment.
There is also a todo list as an inventory item where quests are tracked.
A separate action is available to highlight all hotspots in the environment.
The game can be played in an easy Casual mode or the Hard more with
About PlayStation 5
Launched in late 2020, the PlayStation 5 introduced ultra-fast SSD loading and ray tracing to mainstream console gaming. It's still early in its collecting life cycle, but the Digital Edition (no disc drive) has already created a meaningful split in the market between disc-based and digital-only PS5 owners — something collectors should keep in mind when comparing prices for the "same" game.
Gamevaro tracks Return To Monkey Island [Collector's Edition] for PlayStation 5 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Return To Monkey Island [Collector's Edition] to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS5 release dates back to 2023.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
