Peter Capaldi leads all 12 Doctor Whos in Lego Dimensions

Add as a preferred source on Google

In case you didn’t think Doc Brown and Marty McFly brought enough time travel to complicate the massive fictional universe crossover of Lego Dimensions, get ready to add the TARDIS to the mix. All 12 of the Doctors will take part in Lego Dimension‘s Doctor Who level pack, though only the current Doctor, Peter Capaldi, will lend his voice. He is also joined by Jenna Coleman and Michelle Gomez, who play his companion, Clara Oswald; and the sinister time lord Missy on this current incarnation of the BBC’s long-running television show.

The plot revolves around the 12th Doctor (Capaldi) being defeated, but then returning as the first Doctor again, regenerating through all of the intermediary Doctors until he becomes 12 again. It wouldn’t truly be Doctor Who without is iconic TARDIS, and its interior design will apparently correspond to the Doctor’s current incarnation. Inside you can find a jukebox that plays various versions of the Doctor Who theme music.

Doctor Who is playable in the Lego Dimensions Starter Pack, along with a level featuring some of his iconic villains, the Daleks and the Cybermen. The Doctor Who level pack adds an additional level and comes with a 12th Doctor minifig and physical models of the TARDIS and K-9, which can be brought into the game. There is also a Doctor Who fun Pack, which comes with a playable Cyberman minifig and a Dalek model.

You can get a taste of the action in the trailer above. True to form, the Doctor thoroughly confuses Wyldstyle, Gandalf, and Batman by explaining to them that he has already met them, but they have not yet met him in their timelines. Other highlights of briefly glimpsed action include The Doctor and Homer Simpson being tested in an Aperture Science lab and riding a spooky mine car with Scooby Doo an Shaggy.

Lego Dimensions will arrive on September 27 for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Wii U.

Your GTA 6 ‘physical copy’ could expire before you even play it
Rockstar has confirmed that Japanese PS5 download codes won't remain valid forever.

The debate around GTA 6's "physical" edition just got another twist. Rockstar has confirmed on its official website that PS5 download codes included with physical copies of Grand Theft Auto VI sold in Japan will expire 170 days after the game's November 19, 2026 launch date. That means players who don't redeem the code before roughly May 8, 2027 could be left with nothing more than an empty game box, even though they purchased a physical copy. The company says the policy is required due to regional regulations in Japan.

Why only Japan?

Fresh off launching a metallic Hall-effect keyboard and a 59g gaming mouse for flashy esports setups, Lenovo has turned its attention to gamers working with much tighter budgets. The Legion 24-1r looks made for broke college students who spent way too much on their first gaming rig and now have instant noodles doing most of the heavy lifting at dinner. It costs just 669 yuan, equivalent to around $99, yet offers a 23.8-inch IPS panel running at up to 280Hz.

Lenovo is also offering the 27-inch Legion 27-1r with the same core specifications for 789 yuan, or roughly $116. For the ramen-budget crowd chasing competitive frame rates, both look like seriously tempting deals. (via NotebookCheck)
