When do you think Jurassic Park will release?

[markwilliams1995]

Q: Will the game be released before christmas?

I feel like they are giving all their attention to BTTF, and not enough to Jurassic park

[Alan Johnson]

To answer your question. No. Jurassic Park will not be released before Christmas.

[RAnthonyMahan]

We probably won't see Jurassic Park until BttF finishes. Since that'll probably be in April, I'll say May at the earliest. (But it's highly unlikely they'll jump straight from one game to another. Maybe in the summer?)

[Trenchfoot]

My bet is late February or early March. They've said "winter" after all...

And we'll probably start getting some news in late December and January.

[PainDealer]

I'll go for late February as well. That's the most optimistic guess I can make.

[BrakMan2005]

Yeah, I think that since they are working of BTTF right now, JP won't be released until that is finished. So my best guess would be around June or July.

[Javi-Wan Kenobi]

Maybe I'm wrong, but from the first BTTF/JP news we had, I understood that the two game seasons will overlap, so I'm with Trenchfoot: February or March.

[Sadonicus]

They said this WINTER, so at the latest in February!

[RAnthonyMahan]

They said this WINTER, so at the latest in February!

When it said "this winter" in the original Telltale/Universal press release, they meant you'd first see a game coming from the deal this winter, which is true, since the first episode of Back to the Future comes out in December. That means nothing for Jurassic Park. It could not come out for another three years, but as long as BttF comes out when it's supposed to, it would still be "this winter."

It says: "Look for the first video game based "season" of Back to the Future from Telltale this winter followed shortly by Jurassic Park. Telltale will release more information on both game series at a later date." So when Bttf comes in December, JP will come shortly after the first episode or after all five episodes are released. So either in January/February or in March/June. Not in three years.

[Irishmile]

It will probably be released about 3-4 months after BTTF is done.... That also means that new Monkey Island is probably not going to happen in the near future.

[Vainamoinen]

September 2011, best guess! ;)

[Sadonicus]

Can someone of the Telltale-team at least say if it will come out shortly after the first episode or after the whole season of Bttf ??? :(

This uncertainty kills me :p

I'm pretty sure they mean shortly after BttF as a whole finishes.

[Irishmile]

Yeah. In the past TTG usually commits to one series at a time... recently they have released some single short games during their current seasons run... but I would not count on JP being released at the same time as any BTTF games....

Though I know they had recently been hiring so they may now have a larger pool of talent to split off into even more project than ever before.... Good luck getting a straight answer though... TTG as a whole only really seem to announce a release date when its only about a week or two away.

I dont even want a concrete release date, just if JP will be released before or after Bttf finishes! Please, Telltale ;)

[Trenchfoot]

As far as I know, it's pretty obvious that they are dedicating more time to Jurassic Park, as they probably started with it at the same time as they did with BTTF (because of the Raptor model seemed finished), but it seems that they are taking more time to release it, maybe because of the new type of gameplay and graphics?

However, I'm glad that they are taking more time with this one. It shows that they are trying their best to not screw it up. Which I know they won't.

It's likely to think that the more time they take, the better. After all, we've been waiting for a really good JP game for a really long time, so we can wait a couple of months, right?

I believe we were actually working on JP before anyone was working on BTTF.

Is there a correlation between the time you work on a game and the quality of it?
I want BttF to be as much of an ambitious project as JP is. :(

no, just as its been said, JP's doing some different things than our usual games, so it needed more R&D time.

[markwilliams1995]

yes

[GuybrushWilco]

There has been pretty much 0 info on the JP game, so i'd say probably not till the BTTF episodes are all out! That's just my best guess though :)

[Gogeta504]

is JP gonna be another FPS???... and i hope JP will be PS3 too =P
2011???

[GeorgeC]

I'll be pre-occupied playing BttF and re-playing the sam and max series, along with CoD black ops + Mass effect 2 to become impatient for Jurrasic park, but when I heard it's release date I'll be all over it like a ptereodactyl on human flesh? I dunno

Either way, LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!!

[Hangman522]

I think late february is a good assumption, I could see spring though too.

[Trenchfoot]

If you checked out the BTTF trailer, the release dates of the game were December, February, March, April and May. As you probably noticed, January doesn't have an episode release... So could this mean JP is getting released on January?

Could be... Only time or a TellTale employee will tell....

Could be right or could just be that they are gonna take a break for a holiday and wont release in jan because of the x-mas holidays. I like your thinking though :D.

Did anyone notice that they end Bttf in may, and in June Jurassic Park will have it's 18th anniversary?

Interesting. So now January or February is a sure thing now. And I expect some stuff related to the game to start popping up as soon as the first BTTF episode is released....

Just a warning for TellTale: Don't go into the long grass!!!!

[WinterSnowblind]

I don't think they're just ignoring Jurassic Park in favour of BttF, it's simply because BttF is coming out first. I imagine we'll start hearing a lot more about it next year, but I don't think we'll see it released until after BttF is finished.

[waroftheworlds01]

Next year!!!! Do you know how many... oh.. wait.... It's December right now isn't it? Okay, cool. I can't wait till next year. lol But only if it's January... maybe February.

[Sadonicus]

If only they could give us just some facts about the game, like wich genre or some story hints :p

[Colucci]

they said the universal partnership games will be out in winter. So we could see a release by centre january to start of feburary

[Inder]

According to Gamespot it's due to come out in Q1 2011, so that means between January-Mars.

By the way, since it's my first post here i would like to give the TT-team two thumbs up. I think you are doing fantastic work. Loved Monkey Island and Sam and Max. Looking forward to BttF and JP

[picnick]

I believe we were actually working on JP before anyone was working on BTTF.

I do hope this does not mean BTTF has been neglected! ;)
