The Runaway (video game)

Doctor Who: The Runaway was a virtual reality video game created by the BBC. It featured the Thirteenth Doctor voiced by Jodie Whittaker in the TARDIS, taking the individual Player on an adventure.

Viewers truly are in for a treat - for those who ever dreamed of helping to pilot the TARDIS, this is your opportunity!

Zillah Watson, head of BBC VR Hub, said:
 * This is the most ambitious project yet from our team in the BBC VR Hub, and the result is a magical adventure that Doctor Who fans everywhere will simply love. It also shows the enormous potential that virtual reality has for creating new kinds of experiences that appeal to mainstream audiences.
