Ubisoft have finally announced the release date of Watch Dogs as well as revealing details and pack shots of the four collectors editions up for grabs when the game arrives in November. Those fine folks have even given us a brand new trailer to drool over until they grace us with some more information.
In Watch_Dogs, players will assume the role of Aiden Pearce, a new type of vigilante who, with the help of his smartphone, will use his ability to hack into Chicago’s central operating system (ctOS) and control almost every element of the city. Aiden will be able to tap into the city’s omnipresent security cameras, download personal information to locate a target, control systems such as traffic lights or public transportation to stop a chase, and more. The city of Chicago is now the ultimate weapon.
