Congratulations Ubisoft, you’re the first people to make an open-world title (other than Rockstar) that I actively want to play. It took you three goes to get there and you’ve hypocritically announced it as being politically aligned after saying you don’t make political games but hey, you’ve done it!<\/p>\n
Officially unveiled at yesterday’s Ubisoft E3 briefing Watch Dogs: Legion<\/em> introduces one of the most ambitious game mechanics I’ve seen to date. The new title in the franchise gives you the ability to literally pick any<\/em> person in the open-world and play the game as them! That’s right; any-one!<\/p>\n
