Zynga is thrilling fans of Custom Street Racer 2, also known as CSR2, with an exciting crossover event to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the iconic film, Back to the Future. Directed by Robert Zemeckis in 1985, this cinematic classic is now making its way into the world of mobile racing.
CSR2 Is Taking You Back to the Future
Starting today, players can get behind the wheel of the legendary DeLorean Time Machine from the original movie. While it doesn't come with performance enhancements or special abilities, it's a fully drivable car within the game. Beyond just the car, CSR2 is immersing players in a full Back to the Future-themed experience.
The event includes a custom in-game user interface inspired by the film, a brand-new narrative, and several special events. Players can look forward to three flash events focused on the Time Machine, as well as a community competition. Zynga has promised that more themed events will be rolled out throughout the year, ensuring that this isn't just a fleeting update.
Right now, CSR2 is engaging the community with quizzes on their social media platforms where participants can win exciting prizes. Be sure to check them out [ttpp].

Sadly, No Free Trips to 1955!
While the game won't let you travel back to 1955 like in the movie or even in games like Reverse:1999, this unique CSR2 and Back to the Future collaboration stands out on its own. The legendary gull-winged DeLorean from the first film is now available to drive in-game, adding an extra layer of excitement.
Sam Cooper, Zynga's Vice President of Games, emphasized the uniqueness of this collaboration, noting that the Time Machine is one of the most recognizable and beloved vehicles in cinematic history. He expressed enthusiasm about allowing players to race the car virtually as a way to celebrate the movie's significant milestone.
