Ubisoft's hacking-focused Watch Dogs series is branching out—to Audible! Forget a traditional mobile game; instead, a new interactive audio adventure, Watch Dogs: Truth, is now available. Players shape the narrative by making choices that guide DedSec's actions.
The Watch Dogs franchise, a mainstay in Ubisoft's lineup, is surprisingly making its mobile debut in this unconventional format. Watch Dogs: Truth isn't a mobile game in the style of its console counterparts but an audio adventure, a format dating back to the 1930s.
Set in a near-future London, the story follows DedSec's struggle against a new threat. The AI Bagley assists players by offering decision-making guidance after each episode.
This unique approach is somewhat surprising, considering the Watch Dogs franchise's age is comparable to Clash of Clans. The limited marketing for this mobile foray is also noteworthy. While the concept of audio adventures isn't new, applying it to a major franchise like Watch Dogs is an interesting experiment. The success of Watch Dogs: Truth remains to be seen, but its unconventional launch warrants attention. We'll be watching (listening?) closely to gauge its reception.
