A small rumor that finds its origins on imageboard and rumor-den 4chan seems to be confirmed finally. According toKotaku’sJason Schreier,Watch Dogs 3will is going to the UK – London to be specific. This rumor has been circling for quite some time now, but after much speculation we have a “Schreier Confirmation” which is practically a sure-fire thing in 2019.
In the Kotaku article discussing the new tease that the nextAssassin’s Creedgamewill have a Viking backdrop, Schreier writes, “A new patch forWatch Dogs 2also dropped a major clue forWatch Dogs 3, telling the world the new setting would be London (which it is).” Back in 2017, Ubisoft released a patch to fix some bugs and added some changes toWatch Dogs 2’s ending. During the end, there were some references made about the London location.
It’s nothing new for Easter eggs to be put in current games, implying about future games. Ubisoft did this with their sci-fi game,Pioneer. A game which was teased inWatch Dogs 2. Unfortunately, the game was canceled, but new information came to light revealing the game is undergoing some significant changes. Out with the oldPioneerand with the old and in with the new.
However, the key component of this reporting is the off-hand editorial remark from Schrier: “…(which it is).” While the original ending changes created some healthy speculation, Jason is taking some more explicit terms with it.
Ubisoft still hasn’t confirmedWatch Dogs 3and is keeping a tight lid on things. Which still has gamers asking the major question, “When is it coming out?” Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait until Ubisoft finally confirms this rumor and hopefully reveals the game officially – and perhaps a release date. Perhaps we will hear more about the game when E3 rolls around.
If you want to catch up with the series,Watch Dogs 2is currently available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. you’re able to grabthe game via Amazon, at a fairly deep discount. DualShockers reviewed the game when it came out,awarding it an 8.0while saying “It’s certainly not a perfect picture, but despite the wacky balance and the flaws,Watch Dogs 2manages to be a very enjoyable experience.”
