| Features | All it takes is the swipe of a finger. We connect with friends. We buy the latest gadgets and gear. We find out what's happening in the world. But with that same simple swipe, we cast an increasingly expansive shadow. With each connection, we leave a digital trail that tracks our every move and milestone, our every like and dislike. And it's not just people. DYNAMIC NAVIGATION: Watch Dogs gives you the ability to not only use the city's CTOS to your advantage, but the streets as well. In real-world Chicago, cut through one of the buildings or climb to the rooftops to catch your target. HACK THE CITY: Control the city's infrastructure, in real time, with Aiden's cell phone. Trap your enemy in a 30-car pileup by manipulating the traffic lights. Stop a train, and then board it to evade the authorities. Narrowly escape capture by quickly raising a drawbridge. Anything connected to the city's CTOS can become your weapon. HIGH OCTANE DRIVING: Get behind the wheel of more than 65 vehicles bursting with horsepower to explore the massive city while completing missions. Ubisoft Montreal partnered with Ubisoft Reflections, the acclaimed studio behind the award-winning Driver series to develop each vehicle with state-of-art physics and handling. SEAMLESS MULTIPLAYER EXPERIENCE: Discover a new level of interaction, cooperation and confrontation between players thanks to a brand new multiplayer game system that links the single and multiplayer modes into one seamless experience. That means no menus, no loading screens, just instant open world multiplayer action. STAY CONNECTED WITH A NEW WAY TO PLAY: Go beyond the console with a ground-breaking, real-time, companion game. This innovative mobile platform allows players to connect and compete with friends, even when away from the home console. The Watch Dogs companion game delivers dual-screen gameplay that enables you to play from anywhere, at any time. |

Watch Dogs is a mature-rated action game for PC, suited to players who enjoy open-world missions, hacking city infrastructure, and using the environment to outmaneuver enemies.
Recommended For
- Players who want an open-world action game where they can use Chicago’s connected systems—such as traffic controls, cameras, and infrastructure—to create openings or escape pursuits.
- Stealth-action players who like choosing between scouting with cameras, sneaking through buildings, and switching to gunplay when a mission turns into a fight.
- Open-world explorers who want a story campaign alongside optional city activities, collectibles, and side mysteries to pursue between missions.
- Players drawn to a serious revenge-thriller premise about a hacker using a city’s digital infrastructure as part of his fight.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- Before entering a guarded area, use nearby security cameras to locate guards and plan a route; this can help you avoid walking into a direct firefight, though some objectives still require close contact.
- When a mission turns into a fight, use nearby cameras and hackable objects to distract or disrupt enemies, then combine stealth, takedowns, or gunplay depending on the situation.
- During a police chase or getaway, manipulate traffic lights and other connected city infrastructure to create obstacles or a chance to escape; driving remains a central part of moving through the open-world city.
- For a less mission-focused session, explore Chicago, drive around, and take on available side activities; the open world offers things to do beyond the main story, though reviewers note that some activities can feel familiar or repetitive.
- If you want a break from the story, try the integrated online hacking mode: it can turn roaming into a cat-and-mouse encounter with another player, but online play requires an internet connection and access to the mode.
