The fifth episode and Tales of Monkey Island season 1 finale is set to release soon, and this video recaps the adventure so far. Perhaps it might also reveal some clues as to why there was a wake for Guybrush Threepwood, Might Pirate held last week when fans know that he cannot die (at least not for very long) in a Monkey Island adventure game. We'll find out tomorrow when Rise of the Pirate God releases.

Telltale Games' first "season" in its episodic adventure game Tales of Monkey Island is getting ready for its fifth and final chapter, Rise of the Pirate God. Today, Telltale announced the final chapter will be released for PC via download on December 8 and they hint that the game's lead character could meet with a nasty fate.

Yes, Guybrush Threepwood could be no more in this concluding chapter and even Telltale's Dave Grossman seems to think there's no hope for our pirate hero. In Telltale's press release announcing Rise of the Pirate God, he says, "It's a great tragedy to see such a productive life seemingly cut off prematurely. And I'm not just saying that because he owes me money." We won't have long to find out if he's correct. In the meantime the first four individual chapters in the series are now on sale at Telltale's web site.
