Step Into the DeLorean with Back to the Future: The Game

Relive the magic of one of cinema's most iconic franchises in Back to the Future: The Game. Developed by Telltale Games, this episodic graphic adventure transports players directly into the heart of Hill Valley. As a point-and-click adventure that blends action and puzzle-solving, it offers a nostalgic journey for longtime fans and a fresh entry point for newcomers to experience the temporal chaos that defines the series.

A New Temporal Adventure

The story picks up six months after the events of the third film. The peaceful timeline is thrown into disarray when a driverless DeLorean Time Machine mysteriously returns to Hill Valley. Marty McFly must embark on a frantic mission to prevent the space-time continuum from unraveling forever. To save the future, Marty must travel back to 1931 to seek aid from a resistant teenage Emmett Brown, persuading him to abandon his path toward a career in law and embrace his destiny as a mad scientist.

As Marty moves backward and forward through time—navigating between 1931 and an alternative 1985—players must mend the rips in the space-time continuum caused by their own meddling. The narrative is delivered across five distinct, action-packed episodes:

  • Episode 1: It's About Time
  • Episode 2: Get Tannen!
  • Episode 3: Citizen Brown
  • Episode 4: Double Visions
  • Episode 5: OUTATIME - Finale!

Authentic Storytelling and Star Power

What sets Back to the Future: The Game apart is its deep connection to the original trilogy. The game features a collaboration with Bob Gale, the co-creator and co-writer of the films, ensuring the story feels like a true extension of the cinematic universe. The experience is further bolstered by the involvement of the franchise's "first families," including the McFlys, the Browns, and the notorious Tannens.

The production boasts incredible authenticity with original cast members returning to lend their voices. Christopher Lloyd reprises his iconic role as Doc Brown, and Claudia Wells returns as Jennifer Parker. While A.J. LoCascio takes on the mantle of Marty McFly, Michael J. Fox makes a special appearance, providing voices for two cameo roles in the final episode and voicing Marty’s forefather, William.
