Watch Dogs Legion (Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Stadia)

30 July 2019

In one of its ambitious innovations, Ubisoft announced the launch of the WatchDog Legion. The game is distinct from the earlier versions of Watch Dog and is a genius concept depicting consequences of technological innovations and the declining control of the government.

The play depicts a free society, where everyone can do what they will, wait and watch out for greed, plundering, and bloodshed that engulfs the futuristic London City.

The WatchDog Legion is a game you have always craved for; from unrelenting crimes, power struggles to not-stop thrills, the legion is on another level.

Storyline

Watch Dogs Legion is one of the most thoughtful gaming innovations. Set into the futuristic London, the game has no specific protagonist. And players can independently choose their desired character.

The characters concept is a visualization of an era where technology has ruled the world, and people phased out of jobs as a result of automation. It is a post-Brexit period where the pound is useless, and cryptocurrency is legit.

The Watch Dog Legion exhibits a city without control; the Government is dysfunctional, a private law enforcer controls the city’s security. Oppression and rights infringement are ever high. With all the disorder, someone must rise against the oppressive regime.

What adds subtlety to the play, is the anonymous hacker, the Ded Sec who can hack codes, addresses, and relevant information that its allies use to recruit more people into Ded Sec. Ded Sec target is to liberate the city from the authoritarian rule.

In the game, players can take any character, but the hacker is one of the most revered figures in the play. Players are at liberty to do what they want, and with a limit of 20 recruits, they can recruit troops and go on a rampage. New characters turn into combat, stealth, or hacking classes, and each class has distinct strengths and characteristics.

The game features a permadeath mode, so despite the autonomy of doing anything you want, any other player can take you down. And with the violent disorder in the city, sanity is achievable if Ded Sec can create a force so powerful to outwit or lead the other troops to logic. Every character helped by Dead Sec allies has to return the favor by joining Ded Sec.

Play Mode

Set for release, on March 6, 2020, for Xbox One, Google Stadia, PlayStation 4 and PC, the Watch Dog Legion main features include playability from the third-person perspective, multiple player controls, and the cooperative multi-player model
