Telltale Games

To coincide with this weekend's Penny-Arcade Expo we're letting loose some new information on our upcoming, five episode long, Back to the Future project. This is heavy.

First, get a load of the newly released concept art for Marty McFly and Doctor Emmett Brown from Telltale's Ryan Jones! That's right, we got Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd to contribute their likenesses to the game so you're going to be getting the authentic Back to the Future experience. You'll also be hearing the dulcet tones of Christopher Lloyd as he reprises his role as Hill Valley's local scientist.

The man behind the Back to the Future trilogy's screenplays, Bob Gale, is also involved in the creation of our game. He's been key to putting together the story beats for the game (1980s Hill Valley will be a key setting for the game) and has been in close communication with our team throughout the process. Don't be surprised to hear some choice uses of the word butthead in the game! 

If you're heading to PAX, the Back to the Future fun doesn't stop with these announcements. We're featuring a DeLorean time machine that you can get your picture taken with during the expo! If you add the photo you take with the DeLorean to the Telltale Games Facebook page you'll be eligible to win some awesome Back to the Future prizes! We'll be announcing a new winner at 4 PM during each day of  of the expo. Stay tuned to our @telltalegames on Twitter and our Facebook page for information throughout the show. 

On June 15, Guybrush Threepwood's newest adventures will be available on PSN! PlayStation fans have been asking for it since we first announced the series, but very soon, your swashbuckling dreams will be realized. If you're in North America, you'll be able to pick up the full five-chapter set of Tales of Monkey Island for $19.99 from the PlayStation Store next Tuesday. Shortly thereafter, the games will be in available in the European PlayStation Store; we’ll have more information on the specific release date very soon! Yarrrrr!

In the upcoming episode of Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse, Max’s brain has gone walkabout, and it’s up to Sam to find out who took it. Taking a cue from the Freelance Police’s office neighbor (and idol) Flint Paper, Sam is poised to beat the information from the unsuspecting supporting cast milling around the streets of New York City.

Here are some new screenshots, featuring Sam looking fairly determined:

Find out what happens next in Episode 3, "They Stole Max's Brain!", which will be out for PC, Mac, and the PlayStation Network on June 22! That’s less than two weeks away, folks.

Hello folks! Well, it's already been mentioned by a few sources, so I guess it's high time that we confirm that yes, we are indeed working on two new episodic game series based on a couple of familiar (and excellent) films from the fine folks at NBC Universal.

The first of these—Back to the Future, based on the film trilogy of the same name—will be headed your way starting this winter, and will be followed up shortly by Jurassic Park.
