Ubisoft's Watch Dogs franchise, known for its hacker-themed third-person shooters, is finally branching out to mobile! However, it's not quite the mobile game you might anticipate. Instead of a full-fledged mobile title, Ubisoft has launched Watch Dogs: Truth, an interactive audio adventure on Audible.
Players guide the narrative by making choices that shape Dedsec's next move against a new threat in a near-future London setting. The experience utilizes the familiar choose-your-own-adventure format, with the AI Bagley offering guidance after each episode.
This surprising mobile debut is noteworthy, considering the Watch Dogs franchise's age, roughly comparable to Clash of Clans. While the series' mobile entry takes an unconventional form, the concept of an interactive audio adventure holds potential. The relatively low-key marketing campaign for Watch Dogs: Truth is intriguing, and its success will be closely monitored. Will this unique approach resonate with players? Only time will tell.
