The Edge of Reality sees David Tennant reprise his role

Doctor Who: The Edge of Reality sends players on a journey to save reality, aided by the Tenth and Thirteenth Doctors, voiced by their respective cast.

Doctor Who has a massive fan base, but while there have been thirteen Doctors to date, the list of video games they’ve appeared in is unusually short. Doctor Who: The Edge of RealityYou intend to increase this number by another, and it also gives players more Doctor bang for their buck.

Developer Maze Theory, the studio behind Doctor Who: Edge of Reality, has released a trailer for the upcoming title showing a few minutes of what gamers can expect. In addition to the Thirteenth Doctor (voiced by Jodie Whittaker), players will experience a Tenth Doctor exam (voiced by David Tennant). The two will counsel players as they journey through the universe – and the cavernous interior of the Tardis itself – on a quest to save reality from utter and utter destruction.

Doctor Who: Edge of Reality is an extension of an experience previously reserved for virtual reality called Doctor Who: The Edge of Time, developed with assistance from BBC Studios. Turning Doctor Who in a first-person screwdriver (FPS) title makes sense from a VR game’s perspective, but it seems to work just as well for less confined platforms like PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, Nintendo Switch and PC. Classic who notes are present everywhere – eerie geometry and physics, varied and sometimes familiar settings reminiscent of beloved episodes, and there’s even a glimpse of a sequence where players roam like a Dalek. Other classic enemies are in evidence, beyond the Daleks. Cybermen and Weeping Angels are present, as well as others that Maze Theory has only hinted at so far.

In Edge of reality, players are trying to save reality from a “reality virus” causing all kinds of trouble over time. The new story comes from Gavin Collinson, writer of Doctor Who: The Lone Assassins.

No Doctor Who the game would be complete without loads of Easter eggs and that’s exactly what Maze Theory promises players. The liberation of Edge of reality‘s getaway to the Chaosverse is just a week and, Doctor Who crossovers being what they are, it’s likely that new and old players will encounter a lot more than they expect.

Doctor Who: Edge of Reality will launch on October 14.
