Doctor Who is coming to Minecraft

While it’s not the full game we want, we can at least enjoy some Doctor Who video game madness while we wait. Announced today by BBC Worldwide, Doctor Who will be invading Minecraft for the Xbox 360.

Included in each of the downloads will be assets to transform avatars into six Doctors, along with their companions, as well as the TARDIS, Daleks, Silurians, and more. The first DLC to arrive in September will be the new, Peter Capaldi flavored incarnation of our favorite Doc (and 5 others), for just £1.99/$2.99.

No release date outside of Europe has been announced, but with the popularity of Who reaching epic peaks we don’t think there will be long to wait. No word yet on if this is exclusive to the Xbox 360 edition, or if it will spill over onto Xbox One or Playstation platforms.

[UPDATE: Microsoft has confirmed that the DLC will come to the US “soon”, and will be exclusive to the Xbox 360 version of the game… for now.]
