A good time is coming for lovers of graphic adventures, largely thanks to the long-awaited Return to Monkey Island, but also to the recently announced Simon the Sorcerer – Originsa new chapter of this mythical series that will return after almost 30 years that have passed since the publication of the original title.
The publisher Leonardo Interactive and the developer Smallthing Studios are behind this new adventure in the form of a prequel, which will allow us to know the origins of our young wizard, moving us to the events that took place a few weeks before the events of the first episode.
What will not change is its playability, because it will leave us with a point and click graphic adventurealthough naturally for the occasion the visual section and its mechanics will be completely renewed, among which the resolution of puzzles, animated sequences and answers to questions that were left in the air from the last time will not be lacking.
The team’s goal is to revive this iconic character while introducing him to a new generation of gamers with an untold story. We will have to closely follow its development to see what else it will surprise us with, but for now its launch is set for 2023 on PC and consoles.
