Watch Dogs

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

A game by Ubisoft Montreal, Watch Dogs was announced at E3 2012. The story is set Twenty Minutes Into the Future in a Chicago run by MegaCorps and the "Central Operating System", a massive software that monitors and manages all aspects of city life akin to a computer operating system. You play as Aiden Pierce, a rebellious hacker out to fight the system. The game will also feature a Co-Op Mode: the E3 demo briefly showed a second Player Character (nicknamed Bixxel_44) covering Pierce from the rooftops.

The gameplay shown so far looks like a mix of Deus Ex, Assassin's Creed, and Grand Theft Auto.

A sequel, Watch Dogs 2 follows a different group of hackers and it takes place in California.
