E3 2012 – Ubisoft Conference: Brand New IP ‘Watch Dogs’ Unveiled – Looks Like A Cross Between Assassins Creed & Hacker. Looks Unbelievable.
Ok. We all knew that Assassins Creed 3 would steal the show for Ubi right? Sure, Splinter Cell would be hovering around in the same playground, but really, it was AC3’s time to shine and enjoy the spotlight without worry of peer or compeitition.
That plan went right out of the fucking window with ‘Watch Dogs’ a brand new IP from Ubisoft that puts the player in the shoes of a high tech espionage agent who can literally hack anything and turn the city to his advantage in order to terminate a target or secure information. It demonstrated on-stage and looked brutal, hard-edged and uncompromising. It looked like some crazy bastard cross between Assassins Creed, Hacker and the Nolan Bat-verse, yet somehow, it transcended it’s supposed inspiration with a style and flair all it’s own.
E3 game of the show so far. By far.
I’ll stop blabbering now, just watch the video of the demonstration below:
Watch Dogs is due to be released on platforms to be confirmed. A date is to be announced.
