BBC announces two new Doctor Who games for DS and Wii

Following the release of the first two episodes of the super successful (and super free) Doctor Who: The Adventure Games series, BBC Worldwide has announced two more interactive iterations of the franchise. The migrant Time Lord and his companion, Amy Pond, will appear in Doctor Who: Evacuation Earth on the Nintendo DS, and Doctor Who: Return to Earth on Wii. We're guessing the latter comes after the former, as people tend to Return to things they've Evacuated.

The two games will be developed by British studio Asylum Entertainment, which specializes in licensed games for consoles and web browsers. No word yet on whether they'll resemble Sumo Digital's free-to-play Adventure Games series, or whether they'll fall into another genre entirely. Perhaps a TARDIS kart racer, or a very, very, very non-canonical FPS?
