What the game is about

Watch Dogs 2 is an action-adventure open-world title developed and published by Ubisoft. The story takes place in the San Francisco Bay Area, a setting marked by the rise of tech companies.

The player controls Marcus Holloway, a hacker who joins DedSec, a group that seeks to expose the use of the ctOS 2.0 system. This operating system allows for large-scale surveillance and manipulation of citizens, and this central idea runs throughout the proposal.

Gameplay combines exploration, stealth, combat, and hacking of connected devices. You can also use remote-controlled vehicles, drones, 3D-printed weapons, and various tools to intervene in the city's infrastructure.

The title offers a free pace within the map, with main missions and side activities that take advantage of hacking mechanics and mobility through the urban environment.
