Doctor Who is coming to Minecraft

August 27, 2014 by Gary Collinson

Following on from the series eight premiere of Doctor Who, the BBC has announced a deal with Microsoft Studios and Mojang which will see the Doctor and Clara heading to Minecraft on the Xbox 360 edition. Launching in September are a range of Doctor Who assets, which enables gamers to change their avatar to resemble their favourite characters from the show.

The first pack of content – priced at just $2.99 in the U.S. (or £1.99/€2.85/$2.95AUS) – will include a character inspired by the Twelfth Doctor as well as five other Doctors, each of their on-screen companions and some of the Doctor’s most well known adversaries including his arch-nemeses, the Daleks…

The deal will bring more packs as time goes on, introducing many of the most recognizable characters from the past 50 years of Doctor Who. Each skin pack will feature at least six Doctors and will be released regularly over the coming months.
