Cybermen land as first Doctor Who escape room tickets go on sale
A group of Cybermen have been spotted in two major cities in the UK, to mark tickets going on sale for Worlds Collide, the first official Doctor Who live escape game.
The Cybermen were first spotted at Gas Street Basin in Birmingham, before travelling up through the UK, heading straight for Leeds City Centre, frightening local commuters in the process.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting details of the BBC Studios and Escape Hunt Doctor Who-themed live escape game, which will be playable at Escape Hunt venues across the country from early 2019.
Teams of up to six become the Doctor’s new friends and are transported into the future, to the offices of ChronosCorp HQ.
From today, fans can battle through space and time to book tickets for the immersive adventure, which will be arriving at Escape Hunt locations on the following dates:
Bristol – 16/01/2019
Leeds – 25/01/2019
Oxford – 08/02/2019
Manchester – 22/02/2019
Reading – 08/03/2019
Birmingham – 22/03/2019
Richard Harpham, CEO Escape Hunt plc, says: “We are thrilled that tickets are now on sale and fans can start booking to be the first to play the game in January. We are extremely proud of Worlds Collide and look forward to giving fans a unique Doctor Who escape game experience.”
Mat Way, global director, Live Entertainment at BBC Studios, says: ‘We’re very excited to be revealing details of the very first official Doctor Who escape game in collaboration with Escape Hunt. We used to hide behind the sofa when the Cybermen appeared on TV, it’s amazing that fans will soon be able to encounter them face to face.’
