Comic Con 2015: New Doctor Who Gameplay from LEGO Dimensions Here's a look at Doctor Who in action in Warner Bros.' insane pop culture mash-up, LEGO Dimensions. A new trailer shows the TARDIS in Gotham City, the Doctor and Homer Simpson battling alongside one another in Portal's Aperture Science (!), a Scooby Doo encounter and more. Peter Capaldi, Jenna Coleman and Michelle Gomez will voice the characters they play in the BBC show - the 12th Doctor, Clara Oswald and Missy respectively - in the game. Doctor Who has his own level in the LEGO Dimensions Starter Pack, and those who want more Doctor Who content can purchase the Doctor Who Level Pack which includes an additional level, a LEGO minifigure of the 12th Doctor, and LEGO models of the TARDIS and K-9. For absolute authenticity, when the Doctor dies in the game, he returns as the 1st Doctor and regenerates back up to the 12th Doctor. The interior of the TARDIS will reflect whatever Doctor you're playing as, and you can select the different versions of the Doctor Who theme music from a jukebox inside.
A smaller add-on, the Doctor Who Fun Pack, includes a playable Cyberman minifigure and Dalek model which can be built and rebuilt twice. Lucy O'Brien is Entertainment Editor at IGN’s AU office.
