Ubisoft's hacking-focused Watch Dogs franchise is branching out—to mobile! Well, sort of. A new interactive audio adventure, Watch Dogs: Truth, has launched on Audible. Players shape the narrative by making crucial decisions guiding Dedsec's actions.
The Watch Dogs series, a staple in Ubisoft's lineup, continues to expand. This mobile debut, however, isn't a traditional game. Watch Dogs: Truth is an interactive audio experience, a format harkening back to choose-your-own-adventure books.
Set in a near-future London, players guide Dedsec as they confront a new threat, aided by the AI Bagley. The story unfolds episodically, with Bagley offering guidance after each episode.
A Surprisingly Late Mobile Entry
Interestingly, the Watch Dogs franchise and Clash of Clans share a similar age. This mobile foray, a unique audio adventure, is a noteworthy development. While the concept isn't new, applying it to a major franchise like Watch Dogs is exciting.
The somewhat limited marketing for Watch Dogs: Truth is curious, given the franchise's history. Its success will be closely monitored to see how well this unconventional approach resonates with players.
