Doctor Who: The Adventure Games is a series of 4 graphic adventure video games set to be released in conjunction with Series 5 on the official website. It features Cybermen as well as large structure which architecture that resembles a Dalek. The games will be released starting June 2010.

More details regarding the games are expected to be announced on 21 April 2010. However initial press reports indicate that the games are being produced in conjunction with the Doctor Who TV production team, with Matt Smith and Karen Gillan lending their voices and likenesses to the games. In announcing the games, series producer Piers Wenger indicated that they will be considered episodes 14 through 17 of Series 5, though whether they ultimately are considered part of the canon has yet to be confirmed[1], though indications are that they in fact are.[2]

Footage of the games was shown after Victory of the Daleks, revealing one "episode" would involve the Daleks and a destroyed London in 1963 with the tagline Fight The Daleks. This first game title has been confirmed as City of the Daleks, by Phil Ford, and will be available as of 5th June.[3]

It has been confirmed that the Cybermen will appear as a main villain in one episode. These Cybermen are missing the Cybus logo and have a different logo. These Cybermen could be the original Cybermen.

Also as-yet unconfirmed is whether the games will be available outside the United Kingdom, given the fact most video- and game-related material hosted on the BBC's official website is restricted to UK users.
