Also no idea if it will come to Linux natively.
Anyway, best gaming news in years (for me).
I'm not crying, you are!
News of the year for me.

Yeah, it's so great.
In particular the complete music crew is on board again.
And imho, despite the game itself being fantastic,
without that outstanding music I claim it wouldn't be the classic it is now.
Also I'm happy Ron has welcomed Murray into the canon.
He is such a great character (both, Ron and Murray
Just a bit sad Bill Tiller is not part of the team.
He was responsible for CoMI and did a fantastic job, imho.
IIRC he started at LucasArts doing background artwork for The Dig
and also was responsible for backgrounds and artistic style of CoMI.
Afterwards, he wasn't that lucky with his own enterprises (A Vampyre Story and some failed Kickstarter projects). I felt sorry for him, as he seems to be really talented and nice guy.
Asking him to help would've a been a really nice move, imho.

I played the first 2 on the Amiga and would prefer not to use a Windows version if possible

Looks like Liam was the VERY first commenter on Ron's webpage with the announcement:
https://grumpygamer.com/return_to_monkey_island
The official webpage
https://returntomonkeyisland.com/
also features NO platforms at all so far.
So there is still hope but I won't hold my breath.
Thimbleweed Park had a native Linux version but we know by now from many other projects,
that this might be due to simply getting another stretch goal.
Even if it won't there is still the chance of it running great with Proton.
Though I hope I’m wrong and Linux’s been good for him and he now wants to see it flourish. :-)
