Multiplayer ‘Doctor Who’ Game Announced

BBC Worldwide have announced another video game based on the adventures of The Doctor and his assistants Amy Pond and Rory. The game will not be a single player adventure series, but more of a multiplayer experience, and much like the popular adventure series of games, which were released last year. This new game will be free to play for all who want to take part.

The game will have an engaging multiplayer storyline, and it is hoped that a thriving online community can be built around it.

“Doctor Who: Worlds in Time will be a free-to-play multiplayer online game that invites players to save the universe by using their wits to solve time-bending puzzles and pulse-pounding challenges,” said BBC Online’s EVP of digital entertainment Robert Nashak.

The title will be developed by San Francisco-based studio Three Rings, who has previously released Puzzle Pirates and Corpse Craft.

CEO Daniel James said:

“Three Rings is delighted and honoured to have the opportunity to create an online game based on Doctor Who.

“Our goal with Worlds in Time is to capture the imaginative spirit and depth of the series, whilst being fun and easy to play for all ages.”

Doctor Who: Worlds In Time will be released later this year.
