Crossovers
Portal was one of the multiple franchises to be represented alongside the Doctor Who universe in the mass-crossover toys-to-life video game, LEGO Dimensions [+]Loading...["LEGO Dimensions (video game)"]. The Portal content was added to the game at launch, with a level pack being released on 27 September 2015.
This addition to the game allowed players to control the franchise's one playable character - Chell - and have her play through the A Dalektable Adventure and Dalek Extermination of Earth levels, and explore the Who-themed adventure world, as well as operate K9 and interact with the Doctor's TARDIS.
In turn, this allowed the player to play as the Doctor or the Cyberman during the Aperture Science Enrichment Centre and Aperture Science stories, and explore the Portal adventure world, as well as using the related Sentry Turret vehicle and Companion Cube object in any world.
In promotional material for the game, the Portal content was lightly advertised in the trailers Endless Awesome [+]Loading...["Endless Awesome (webcast)"] and Doctor, Doctor, Doctor [+]Loading...["Doctor, Doctor, Doctor (webcast)"]. Notably, the Twelfth Doctor made appearances during these shorts, appearing directly alongside Chell in the former, and driving on the same street she walks down in the latter.
