In honor of October 21, 2015, aka “Back to the Future Day,” I decided to check out Back to the Future: The Game, the 30th Anniversary Edition, from Telltale Games. If you haven’t gotten to play this edition yet, then you are in for a treat.

Back to the Future: The Game takes place six months after the events of Back to the Future Part III, where the year is 1986. The Bank in Hill Valley is holding an estate sale for the late Doctor Emmett Brown (voiced by the always talented Christopher Lloyd, reprising his franchise role). Marty McFly (voiced by A.J. LoCasio) shows up and finds out his father George is running the sale. The Delorean shows up without Doc, but with Einstein and a tape recorder. Marty finds out that the Doc (going under the name of Carl Sagan) is accused of arson of a speakeasy in 1931. From there the adventure is delivered in classic Back to the Future fashion.

The first episode of the episodic video game for Back To The Future is out.

Back To The Future: Episode 1

Developer Telltale Games certainly seems to have done a good job putting this together. They certainly couldn’t have done any better with the voiceover work for Marty McFly.

A few new videos have been released showing off Telltale Games’ episodic video game adaptation of the classic Back to the Future, including a new trailer.

Back to the Future: The Game will be delivered in chapters and will be available via download on PlayStation 3, PC, and certain Apple products like the iPad. The story takes place not too long after the end of Back to the Future III with Marty McFly back to doing normal every day things. But when the DeLorean shows up out of nowhere, Marty will find himself back on an adventure through time trying to find Doc (Christopher Lloyd), who’s stranded somewhere.

You can click on over to the other side now to see the videos. The first is the trailer, while the other three look at the making of the game, including what it’s about, who’s involved, and what to expect. The high point has to be A.J. LoCascio, who was cast to do the voice of Marty when Michael J. Fox wasn’t able to. This was a major concern of fans, but you’ll be excited to hear just how close LoCascio’s impression is!
