We were fortunate enough to receive remasters of a trio of classic LucasArts point-and-click adventures on PS4, and it's now looking like they're being ported to PS5 too. Grim Fandango, Full Throttle, and Day of the Tentacle are all playable on Sony's previous console (and technically PS5 as well), but it seems the current-gen system will soon have native versions of its own.
All three remasters have been listed for PS5 on the Taiwan ratings board, as spotted by Gematsu:

These games don't seem like that would benefit much from a native version.
Curse of Monkey Island, please. That's the one I want.
Maniac Mansion and Zak McKraken releases, you cowards! Come on!
