Ubisoft surprised everyone when it showed Watch Dogs at its E3 2012 conference. A completely new title, it's an open world thriller set in Chicago. The first thing that springs to mind is GTA IV, as it's a third-person game set in a big city, but watching the gameplay video, you quickly see where Watchdogs is different.
The atmosphere is much darker, and your character is some kind of agent with a device that lets him hack communication and electronic systems. He can monitor mobile phones, search personal data, and hack the city's Central Operating System to control everything from stop lights to bridges. This can be used to create some serious and creative havoc - in the demo we see a target being taken out with an orchestrated traffic pile up.
Currently there is little known about when Watchdogs will be released, but it's sure to make gaming headlines when it does. Check back for more details soon! You can watch this 9 minute gameplay video to get a taste of Watch Dogs now:
