Als Aliens im Stil alter Videospiele die Erde angreifen, treten der Präsident und seine Kindheitsfreunde (ehemalige Videospielfanatiker) in Aktion.

Germany German (Deutsch)

Außerirdische nutzen real gewordene Versionen von Kultfiguren aus 80er-Jahre-Videospielen, um eine Invasion der Erde zu starten, da sie Aufnahmen jener alten Spiele zu Gesicht bekommen und diese als Kriegserklärung der Menschen missinterpretiert haben. Die Menschheit ist schnell überfordert von den angreifenden Videospielfiguren, das herkömmliche Militär ist machtlos. US-Präsident Will Cooper erinnert sich an den einzigen, der vielleicht helfen könnte: sein Jugendfreund Sam Brenner. Dieser war in den 80ern ein Videospiel-Champion und weiß also bestens, wie man gegen Pac-Man, Donkey Kong und Co. besteht. Sam schart weitere Old-School-Arcade-Gamer und eine Waffen-Spezialistin um sich, um mit diesen einmal mehr die Videospielfiguren zu besiegen. Nur dieses Mal nicht in der Arcade-Halle, sondern in der wirklichen Welt...

France French (Français)

À l’époque de leur jeunesse, dans les années 80, Sam Brenner, Will Cooper, Ludlow Lamonsoff et Eddie « Fire Blaster » Plant ont sauvé le monde des milliers de fois… en jouant à des jeux d’arcade à 25 cents la partie. Mais aujourd’hui, ils vont devoir le faire pour de vrai… Lorsque des aliens découvrent des vidéos d’anciens jeux et les prennent pour une déclaration de guerre, ils lancent l’assaut contre la Terre. Ces mêmes jeux d’arcade leur servent de modèles pour leurs attaques. Cooper, qui est désormais Président des États‐Unis, fait alors appel à ses vieux potes pour empêcher la destruction de la planète par PAC‐MAN, Donkey Kong, Galaga, Centipede et les Space Invaders… Les gamers pourront compter sur l’aide du lieutenant‐colonel Violet Van Patten, une spécialiste qui va leur fournir des armes uniques…

Italy Italian (Italiano)

Una razza aliena scambia le immagini dei vecchi videogame per una dichiarazione di guerra e attacca la terra usando i giochi stessi come modelli per i loro assalti. Il Presidente degli Stati Uniti chiama allora il suo amico d’infanzia Sam Brenner (Adam Sandler), un campione di videogame negli anni ’80, per difendere la terra. Il destino del nostro pianeta è nelle mani di un improbabile team di nostalgici giocatori.
