Watch Dogs 2 World Premiere Happening On June 8 [UPDATED]


Ubisoft is teasing a world premiere for Watch Dogs 2 happening on June 8. My question is why have a world premiere this week, when E3 is next week ? Guess we’ll find out on June 8. What do you think ? 


UPDATE 6/8/16 - Ubisoft has revealed the world premiere trailer for Watch Dogs 2. I’ve noted some some of the key changes coming to Watch Dogs 2 that we know of so far.

Say Hello to Marcus Holloway

It’s been real Aiden Pierce (the series' debut protagonist) but you’re being replaced by Marcus Holloway, an African American DedSec hacker from San Francisco. DedSec is the hacktivist group introduced in the first game, and this time we're given a deeper look at the faction's motivations and the faces behind it. 

There’s A Deeper Hacking System

Like the first Watch Dogs, city infrastructures can be manipulated. Now Players can hack and edit NPC profiles, such as forging evidence in the system so that they're listed as a wanted criminal. Depending on who you target, the individual will either be arrested whilst proclaiming their innocence, or if you targeted a member of a crime gang, they could resist arrest and begin a dangerous gunfight. 

Goodbye Chicago, Hello San Francisco

Watch Dogs took place in Chicago, but the sequel will be set in the San Francisco Bay Area. Divided into 6 regions, the city includes the downtown area, Civic, Coast, Oakland, Marin, and Silicon Valley, each with their own aesthetic. 


Watch Dogs 2 will release on November 11, 2016 for PS4, Xbox One and PC. You can watch the world premiere announcement trailer below for more details. What do you think of Watch Dogs 2 so far ? Seems interesting but I’d like to play the game before I judge it.
