Watch Dogs has surprised fans with a new interactive experience that has brought the franchise back to life. However, it may not be the sequel that people were hoping for. In its prime, Watch Dogs was poised to become Ubisoft's next major franchise, standing alongside other successful titles like Assassin's Creed and Far Cry. But unfortunately, the series took a hit with the release of Watch Dogs: Legion, which reportedly did not perform as well commercially and even put future games on hold.
Despite this setback, Ubisoft has not abandoned the franchise entirely. This is evident with the release of their new interactive audio adventure, Watch Dogs: Truth, now available on Audible. Serving as a direct continuation of Watch Dogs: Legion, the story takes place in the post-Brexit London setting and follows our beloved hacktivist group, DedSec, along with the cunning AI, Bagley, as they fight against the government's cyber intelligence force.
Although the main attraction may be the thrilling audio drama, the series also offers narrative choices at the end of each episode, giving listeners the power to determine DedSec's next move in the story. And let's not forget the star-studded cast, including T'Nia Miller from Netflix's The Haunting of Bly Manor, David Morrissey from The Walking Dead, and Freema Agyeman from Doctor Who, just to name a few.
If you're interested in diving into this immersive audio adventure, you can purchase the entire six-hour series for £19.99, or take advantage of Audible's 30-day free trial and listen for free. This isn't the first time Ubisoft has teamed up with Audible for a spin-off audio adventure, as they previously released Assassin's Creed: Gold in 2020, featuring the talents of Riz Ahmed and Anthony Head from Buffy.
While it may be a while before we see a proper Watch Dogs game, Ubisoft is determined to keep the franchise alive through other forms of media, such as the upcoming Watch Dogs movie, which has already begun production. Directed by Mathieu Turi and starring Tom Blyth and Sophia Wilde, this film is sure to bring the thrilling world of Watch Dogs to the big screen. But unfortunately, no release date has been announced yet.
We hope that this new interactive audio experience and the highly anticipated movie will give Watch Dogs the second wind it deserves.
