In 2020, Gilbert told the Video Game History Foundation that he already had Monkey Island 3 roughed out in his head.

He even made a half-hearted plea to Disney to sell him back the rights in 2016.ĭear now that you're not making games, please sell me my Monkey Island and Mansion Mansion IP. Gilbert had talked about wanting to do a third installment hilariously called "Monkey Island 3: The Secret Revealed or Your Money Back," but since he no longer had rights or ties to LucasArts, there was not much he could do. Although the game was a sequel to MI2, it discounted that story's ending and went a different direction.


After a six-year lull, LucasArts released the third game, The Curse of Monkey Island, without him.
